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. Unfortunately (or fortunately), the lounge doesn't open until the afternoon, and I still needed to get my boarding pass, which meant I would need [...]
ANA First Class Lounge Tokyo Narita My ANA first class flight from Los Angeles arrived in Tokyo shortly after 3pm, and after a quick stop at transit security, I made my way to the fourth floor where the lounge is located.

Star Alliance First Class Lounge Los Angeles Airport Introduction Airport lounges in North America can be a but underwhelming, with many of them lacking the service and amenities found internationally.

American Express Centurion Lounge Seattle Airport Brad and I decided to fly to Las Vegas from Seattle because paid fares were much cheaper, and we had a companion pass to use from our MBNA Alaska Airlines Mastercard (one of my current top credit card picks for Canadians).

Singapore Airlines SilverKris Changi Introduction My flight to Taipei was scheduled to depart at 3pm, so I checked out of the JW Marriott Singapore South Beach Hotel and grabbed a taxi to the airport.

Access to the terminal is quite [...]
My flight from San Francisco landed well ahead of schedule at 1:30pm, and it was only a few minutes to get through transit security with no lineup whatsoever. I've transited Tokyo Narita several times and always enjoy the experience. I find the airport extremely efficient, with good signage and friendly staff! Best of all, I had access to the ANA [...]
Introduction: My business class flight on Asiana Airlines arrived in Seoul a little bit early, and I had about 3 hours before boarding my first class flight to Los Angeles on the Asiana Airbus A380!

Introduction: My business class flight from New Delhi landed just before 7:00am and I couldn't have been happier to be off that plane. I had been planning to sleep most of the flight, but got only a couple of hours due to the strange service schedule on the overnight flight. Thankfully I had a 4 hour layover in Tokyo and [...]
