Time to fly.
Welcome to my blog. I document my adventures in travel and hopefully give you ideas on how you can get the best value from your points and miles. Hope you enjoy the flight!
With much anticipation to fly a long haul flight on Singapore Airlines in business class, would my expectations be exceeded?
The first of 3 flights on Singapore Airlines. This cabin featured the regional business class seat, which ended up being my favorite.
Delayed for 5 hours due to Typhoon Mindulle in Japan, this flight was not worthy of being called first class even if on time.
The first leg of a 32,000 mile 11 flight journey around the world on ANA in the "Square"
I admit being very excited to fly on a 787 for an extended period. I wanted to see how the lower pressurization in the 787 cabin affected me.
While Icheon Airport in Seoul gets all the accolades, their regional airport Gimpo, is amazing as well. Easy to get to with using the subway you walk underground from the subway station to the airport. The terminal itself is fairly small. Typical for a major city’s second regional airport. It’s brand new and empty.
SAS Scandinavian Airlines has recently undergone a complete revamp of their long haul product including business class hard and soft products. They have done a fantastic job.
To all who complain about US domestic business/first class, I say, GO TRY EUROPE.
My second flight on Austrian reaffirmed the fondness I've acquired for this airline. Are they perfect?
From my perspective, Austrian gets top grades in comfort, food service and entertainment. And that's the trifecta when spending 8 plus hours on a plane.
After the main meal a dessert and cheese cart is wheeled out, which can be most dangerous as it was stacked with goodies! Finally the Turkish Coffee cart is brought out with a large selection of coffee and tea as well as a SECOND dessert.
Many might think it odd to fly half way around the world just to fly in a plane for 35 minutes, but the enthusiasts are jealous
This was a great flight on a world class airline. It hits all marks for what you want with international travel. From a beautiful comfortable cabin, to delicious food, great entertainment and courteous friendly flight attendants, ANA scores high on all.
After the disappointments from New York to Seoul, my expectations for this flight were significantly lowered. I wasn't surprised.
Ninety minutes into the 800 minute flight I realized the high mark on this trip was to be Ms. Park, the quiet and duteous flight attendant assigned to 8k
Times have changed. As years go by the service from Chicago to New York gets less business focused and smaller, much smaller in aircraft size.
One would be hard pressed to find a better way to spend 15 hours in the air other than sitting in Cathay Pacific's First Class Suite. Is this in your plan?
A quick trip from Taipei to Hong Kong on the positioning flight back to the US. It did not take long to see Business Class in Asia is a very different than in the USA.
This is my report of EVA Air from CDG to TPE on a Boeing 777 in Business Class. The flight was on one of the EVA Hello Kitty theme jets. If you want to fly a great product, read about this flight. I am anxious to fly EVA again.
