The A320 short-haul jets that Qatar uses for its Africa and Middle East network are NOT my favorite. Last time, I had the ‘pleasure’ of spending 8 hours on my way to Uganda. This time, I would make the journey from Dar es Salaam to Doha. Julius Nyerere International Airport is just about 7 miles from […]
Kenya Airways has been fighting the low fare wars with business class tickets from as low as $400 for the return trip from Dubai to Nairobi and beyond. I was curious to see if its business class product (seat, cabin and service) lived up to the promise. Kenya Airways uses the SkyTeam Lounge in Dubai. […]
Ever since Air France introduced its new business class product, I have wanted to try it and with this Air France Business Class flight from Paris to Dubai, I got the chance. Air France Business Class seats are the newer generation of the seats we all love from Cathay Pacific Business Class. It’s very private, […]
Virgin Atlantic has long been present with its own lounge at San Francisco International Airport (SFO). It was time for me to try out the Virgin Atlantic Clubhouse, to see how the food, lounge location and the staff are shaping up. The Virgin Atlantic Clubhouse is before security at SFO – just above the security […]
Bali Airport has recently seen an upgrade and the duty free area now raises the heart rate of anyone from China. So it was that night – immigration and security were quick but passing through the duty free area took longer than immigration and security. The Garuda Business Class Lounge at Denpasar Airport is a […]
China Airlines has a few 747 left in service which they are using for the short haul 3 hour flights from Tokyo to Taipei. It seems rather odd since this is a flight a A320 could do well – but I’ll take it. I used the Delta SkyClub in Terminal 1 (though China Airlines departed […]
Garuda Indonesia uses the international configuration for a number of flights between the busiest airports in Indonesia Jakarta and Denpasar. Terminal 3 at Jakarta airport was just inaugurated a few weeks ago and everything is still shiny. It looks more than Singapore Changi Airport than what you are used to from Jakarta airport. Garuda is […]
I flew four sectors with Garuda Indonesia in Economy as domestic flights for this Garuda Indonesia Review. Garuda Indonesia is a very proud 5 Star Skytrax airlines – a badge earned by asking actual customers about how happy they are with an airline. While Indonesia aviation regulators have a reputation for being overly lax and […]
Aircalin has an interesting route network, with many destinations in the South Pacific and Australia. However, what the airline doesn’t often say about its 12 destinations is that service is just once or twice a week, including their flights from Noumea to Melbourne on an A320. Ticket prices fluctuated a lot but sold at around […]
This is my review for the excellent Aircalin Business Class from Osaka to Noumea on the A330. Aircalin is the national carrier of New Caledonia – a small overseas territory of France. If you haven’t heard of it, don’t worry; it is west of Tahiti but does get much less PR. Aircalin features 11 destinations with […]
