The times of frequent flyer programmes actually being valuable for those who love to maximise their miles is rapidly approaching an end. Led by Delta Air Lines, the revenue-based frequent flyer programme is the future. No more award charts, no more custom routings, revenue-based earning and redeeming, and the list goes on and on.The next loyalty programme to become revenue-based is almost certainly going to… Read More
LOT Polish Airlines announced today the re-launch of their route from Kraków to New York JFK. This route previously operated way back in the days (think 2003), but was cancelled due to a number of reasons including low demand. The situation was the same with the Kraków – Chicago route, which was also cancelled, and re-launched a few years ago. The Kraków to New York… Read More
Lufthansa German Airlines announced last month their plans to fly nonstop from Munich to Seattle starting next summer. The airline already operates flights from Frankfurt to Seattle, a very popular route (which doesn’t feature First Class anymore). Lufthansa has recently been expanding their route network and announced a number of new routes and changes not only for flights operated by Lufthansa but also those by… Read More
Qatar Airways features one of the world’s best Business Class on a variety of aircraft, however, their signature Qsuite is their revolutionary Business Class product which they describe as “First Class in Business Class“. The Qsuite can be found on their flights from Doha to select destinations including: Asia and South Pacific: Bangkok Bangalore Hong Kong Maldives Mumbai Shanghai Sydney Singapore Beijing Tokyo Canberra Adelaide… Read More
Hi. Remember me? It’s Dominik. Yes, I know it has been a while and lots of things have changed. I’m here now and am trying to gradually get back into this blogging thing that I loved so much during my teenage years. Many things have changed over the past two years and while I thought I had everything planned out perfectly during my university years,… Read More
Lufthansa First Class is the world’s best way to fly as far as I’m concerned. I’ve flown the product on every single type of long-haul aircraft Lufthansa operates and I’ve easily flown LH F over 50 times (if not more). Lufthansa used to feature First Class on all of their long-haul aircraft, but the airline removed F seats from half of their long-haul fleet and… Read More
Phone applications have changed everything – gone are the days of visiting a website to actually do something, am I right? In most cases, you can use a phone app to do just about anything – from booking a flight to buying a house to getting a date (ok, that last one has never worked for me). I can’t remember the last time I actually… Read More
LOT Polish Airlines, a Star Alliance member, is an interesting airline… from their interesting shady policies and procedures to their corrupt Rzeszów to Newark flight, the airline is a mixture of both good and bad. While LOT doesn’t have the best Business Class product, I consider LOT’s Premium Economy to be the best in Europe – certainly much better than Lufthansa/Austrian’s or British Airways’. LOT frequently… Read More
I love layovers of under 24 hours on a single ticket – they allow me to explore a new city for a day or just catch up with friends for dinner in a city I’ve visited countless times. A day on the beach? Not a problem. I am of course referring to layovers of up to 24 hours on a single ticket. Say I’m flying… Read More
For a number of years, international flights to Seattle were limited. There was no sign of expansion and for a long time, the airlines operating flights to the city remained the same, and few routes were introduced. However, that all changed a few years ago as Seattle became the fastest-growing city on the west coast, and arguably the new technology centre of America. The “revolution”… Read More
