I know from experience that very little is open on Sundays in Denmark, so I decided to spend my day enjoying some nice flights instead. I booked my return flight from Copenhagen on Finnair via Helsinki, which might have actually been even more ridiculous than my flight from Berlin to Warsaw to London, haha. FromContinue reading “Finnair wet lease by Danish Air Transport”

Heathrow Terminal 3: Qantas lounge and flight to Billund
After finishing at the Cathay Pacific lounge, I decided to check out the Qantas lounge. The Qantas lounge is right next door to the Cathay Pacific lounge, so I didn’t have to go far. I’ve previously read that the Qantas lounge is on par with or better than the Cathay Pacific lounge, but I wasContinue reading “Heathrow Terminal 3: Qantas lounge and flight to Billund”
Heathrow Terminal 3 lounge hopping. Stop 1: Cathay Pacific First/Business Class lounges
Now that I’m wrapping up my time in London, I’ve decided to take some trips around Europe while it’s still relatively easy. However, travelling in Europe right now is far from easy because of extensive flight disruptions. Nonetheless, I’m going to push ahead and try. Hopefully, having airlines status will cushion the disruption, but I’mContinue reading “Heathrow Terminal 3 lounge hopping. Stop 1: Cathay Pacific First/Business Class lounges”
Returning to London in Premium Economy
This is a bit of an interesting review for me today. This is my last transatlantic flight while still living in London. In July, I’m moving back to the US, but it’s now time to end this chapter of my life and start the next one back in the US. This is the return partContinue reading “Returning to London in Premium Economy”
Memorial Day/Jubliee trip to the US
One of the things I’ve found interesting living in the UK is that there are two bank holidays in May—one at the beginning (roughly corresponding to May Day) and one at the end (usually overlaps with Memorial Day in the US). For the Early May Bank Holiday, I went to Portugal. This year, however, theContinue reading “Memorial Day/Jubliee trip to the US”
TAP Air Portugal Porto to London
For the ‘Early May Bank Holiday’, I took a short trip to Porto for the Bachelor Party of a friend of mine. I booked flights from London to Porto on TAP Air Portugal. I had a few choices of carrier from London, including Ryanair (which my friends flew) from Stansted, British Airways from Heathrow, andContinue reading “TAP Air Portugal Porto to London”
Easter trip to Berlin (part 4: WAW-LHR)
After going the exact opposite direction of London from Berlin to Warsaw, I was ready to go to London. Once inside Warsaw airport, I made my way toward the non-Schengen border control. I stopped by the duty-free store and then had an extremely friendly and efficient border guard who gave me my first Poland stamp! Continue reading “Easter trip to Berlin (part 4: WAW-LHR)”
Easter trip to Berlin (part 3: BER-WAW)
I had a great long weekend seeing my friends in Berlin and getting to know some new friends of friends (who are now friends). Unfortunately, come Monday, it was time to leave them and return to work. They were staying a few more days to go to more events (and because they had much fartherContinue reading “Easter trip to Berlin (part 3: BER-WAW)”
Easter trip to Berlin (part 2: ZRH-BER)
After my chance to try out the A220, I connected directly onto a Swiss flight to Berlin. I had booked myself a 45-minute layover, since I’d read that Zurich airport was very efficient. The incoming flight was delayed by about 10 min, but I wasn’t too worried because I figured I’d either make it orContinue reading “Easter trip to Berlin (part 2: ZRH-BER)”
Easter trip to Berlin (part 1: LCY-ZRH)
While I was in Boston, the two friends I was visiting told me that they were heading to Berlin around the Easter weekend. I have a general policy that if any of my friends show up to Europe, I’ll join them for the weekend. Normally it’s because I haven’t seen them for a while, butContinue reading “Easter trip to Berlin (part 1: LCY-ZRH)”
