– Miami-based investment company 777 Partners plans to launch a long-haul LCC under the World Airways brand You would expect a company named 777 partners to buy 777 planes but no 787’s are the plane of choice (for good reason). There is just speculation so far as to how exactly it will look like but […]
– Cape Verde is going visa free for most European passports – the visa fee is just $27 anyways (incl.

Aeromexico is a major buyer of 787s and it makes a lot of sense – there are plenty of long and thin routes in South America and to Asia for them. Confusingly, the airline has several different models and interiors in business class already. For this flight, I got a 787 in their staggered 2-2-2 […]

My Favorite 36 Things to do Lima – Understand Lima is a jewel of a city. The weather is temperate here year-round (though winter and spring see the most fog).
