At the end of my two weeks in the US, it was time to head back to London. I booked myself on another A380 flight, but this time it was from DC to London. I’m not very good at sleeping on planes, and flights from the East Coast of the US are just not longContinue reading “Spring trip to the East Coast (round 4: back to London from DC)”

Spring trip to the East Coast (round 3: little hop to DC)
After a long weekend in Boston visiting some friends, it was time to hop over to DC for another adventure. The flight from Boston to DC is one that I’ve done a few times in the past. Flights on this route (along with Boston – New York LaGuardia and New York LaGuardia – DC) haveContinue reading “Spring trip to the East Coast (round 3: little hop to DC)”
Spring trip to the East Coast (round 2B: JFK to Boston) in pseudo-Flagship First Class
I had originally planned to merge this report with the previous one, but I decided to split it. I’ve realized that I reference articles based on what type of seat they have, and the Miami to JFK post might need to be referenced later for American Airlines’ 777-200 business class seat. That was the firstContinue reading “Spring trip to the East Coast (round 2B: JFK to Boston) in pseudo-Flagship First Class”
Spring trip to the East Coast (round 2A: Miami to JFK) in pseudo-Flagship Business Class
After a delightful week in Miami having spring break and watching the Miami Open, it was unfortunately time to leave. But on the plus side, I was on the way to Boston to see a pair of friends! Normally, one would take a direct flight from Miami to Boston, which is also what the checkContinue reading “Spring trip to the East Coast (round 2A: Miami to JFK) in pseudo-Flagship Business Class”
Spring trip to the East Coast (round 1: London to Miami) on an A380 in Club World
For spring break this year, my parents invited me back to Miami. Before COVID, my parents and I used to go to Palm Springs each March to go watch the Indian Wells tennis tournament. Because of COVID, we haven’t been able to, so instead we decided to go to Miami because a) it was lessContinue reading “Spring trip to the East Coast (round 1: London to Miami) on an A380 in Club World”
Return to London during Storm Franklin
After a nice weekend in Dublin, where I saw some friends, stayed at the Aloft Dublin City, went on the Guinness tour, and went shopping, it was time to return to London. I flew from Dublin to London Gatwick on an Aer Lingus A320 (EI-GAM). At the time of booking this ticket, Aer Lingus flightsContinue reading “Return to London during Storm Franklin”
Weekend trip to Dublin (Storm Eunice edition)
For my first trip of 2022, now that travel restrictions have been eased again with Omicron largely under control. I decided to keep it simple with a short weekend trip from London to Dublin. I picked a great weekend for flying. On the Friday, my flight took off after Storm Eunice had just passed throughContinue reading “Weekend trip to Dublin (Storm Eunice edition)”
Washington Dulles (IAD) Polaris lounge review
The first trip report of 2022 is going to be a bit different from the others! This report covers my trip from Washington DC to London, and I decided to do something a bit different because I slept for the entire flight and so can’t comment on the inflight service. Originally, I had been planningContinue reading “Washington Dulles (IAD) Polaris lounge review”
Ending 2021 on a great note: United Polaris London – DC
After a long year, I have one final flight to report on. For those who’ve been keeping track of my flights this year, it’s been quite the roller coaster. I started the year in Finland. I flew in First Class on British Airways and back on American to go get a vaccine. I then cameContinue reading “Ending 2021 on a great note: United Polaris London – DC”
October 2021 domestic flights round up
During my October trip to the US, I took a handful of ‘normal’ domestic flights. These flights were: LAX-IAD on United, RIC-CLT-CLE on American, and CLE-EWR-RIC on United. During the pandemic, I have generally booked first class flights because the prices haven’t been that much higher, and having a little extra personal space is extremelyContinue reading “October 2021 domestic flights round up”
