We arrived at KL sentral with every intent on staying at one of the adjacent hotels. Unfortunately I had transferred points from my Amex to SPG for a couple nights only the night before and last minute rates were poor value. It usually takes around 24 hours so decided to wait the 30 mins and...
Having checked out of the Hilton connection directly attached to the airport it was a short walk to check-in. Today I was returning home to Sweden. So Copenhagen to Stockholm is a major route as you could imagine between the two main Scandic capitals. Want to guess how many flights...
After a very long weekend with the ZoukOut music festival I was exhausted but had to leave Singapore. We had been out all night so by the time we got back to the Westin ate breakfast in the executive lounge then tried to catch up on some sleep. With an...
A brief mention of this lounge separately before my Emirates first class flights. My stay here was rather brief and relative to the first class product quite a disappointment particularly compared to other ports with actual Emirates lounges. Stockholm has limited long haul flights and this is the only lounge...
Photos from the British Airways lounge in Manchester. It sits nicely above the public terminal space and offers some basic refreshments and of course internet access. Access with oneworld status or fly in business or first class. This lounge is in terminal 3. Other oneworld members, Qatar and Finnair operate...
Visited this lounge as a *G in SQ F. Both status and cabin provided eligibility, unfortunately SQ F does not provide access to the LH F lounge. Arrived for my flight quite early, actually before the lounges opened and so was first to enter for the day. All other LH...
Today we flew from Vienna to Amman by Royal Jordanian (RJ). We originally picked a Vienna departure as it has the lowest departure taxes of all European ports RJ operated from. We had a cheap business class fare back to Asia and this would be Jacqui’s first major trip in business...
I left too late to use the airport bus so I ended up naively paying the exorbitant 25 AUD fee for a private driver from the hotel. Prague should be cheap (the bus is closer to $1) but today was not that day. Well for $25 you get a large black car with...
Flying for nearly 11 hours on a low cost carrier? Not to worry, Jetstar Starclass (now business class) is basic but provides ample amenities with domestic business/first style seating that is more than comfortable particularly as this was an all day flight. Two full meals, plenty of snacks provide plenty of options....
Overnighting in Auckland Airport, flying back out on LAN Chile to connect back to Adelaide on Qantas. How plans fall apart so easily. LAN is known for being heavily delayed coming from Santiago. My flight on LAN was cancelled so I was rebooked onto Air New Zealand. A chance to...
I originally intended on staying in Wellington but I booked the flight in the wrong direction! No problem, with flights overall so cheap I decided to be based in Christchurch and make a day trip to the New Zealand capital. Ended up a bit of fun, with a great sunny day in...
This would be the start of an eight flight, week long New Zealand trip where I planned to visit the big three cities, Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch. Although the best bits of NZ are arguably outside the cities, this would be a start for me. My flight there was first a domestic flight...
