EVA Air A330 Business Class Introduction My EVA business class flight from Vancouver arrived just before 6am, which meant I had just over 2.5 hours to wait until boarding for my onward flight to Jakarta (featuring the new EVA Air A330 business class product). I’ve transited Taipei before, and really dislike the lounge. I don’t
EVA Air Business Class Vancouver To Taipei Introduction I’ve flown EVA Air business class on the Boeing 777 in the past from Taipei to Vancouver and Singapore to Taipei, and so has Brad from Los Angeles, and we both agree that it’s one of the world’s best overall business class products.

Plaza Premium Lounge Vancouver Airport Introduction I’ll get it out of the way – contract lounges kind of suck.

Japan Airlines Boeing 777 Business Class Introduction I’ll be honest – I didn’t even realize Japan Airlines had a business class configuration with reverse herringbone seats. I knew they had the Apex Suite, since I flew it on their 787 from Delhi to Tokyo on my crazy 11-day trip around the world, and I assumed
British Airways Business Class Lounge Singapore Changi Introduction I checked out of the JW Marriott South Beach Hotel at around 4pm and took a 25 minute taxi to the airport. My flight wasn’t until 9:50pm, but I love Singapore Changi Airport, and knew I wouldn’t have a hard time spending 5 hours there prior to
Japan Airlines Boeing 777 First Class Introduction It had been a couple of months since my last international trip and I had a bunch of Alaska Miles itching to be used since redeeming 360,000 Marriott Reward points on a Hotel+Air package for our spring break trip to Maui. I knew I wanted to fly the
Introduction My United Airlines flight from Vancouver arrived in San Francisco shortly after 8am, giving me a whopping 7 hours or so to take in all the Japan Airlines Sakura Lounge San Francisco had to offer.
