As readers will probably notice, it’s now travel season for me again! My next set of trips is to India for a wedding. All the flights on this trip were on British Airways, so I’m planning to mix up these flights up with some other posts, so everything is going to be a bit outContinue reading “2025’s big trip: India!

Let’s go to Oklahoma. Part 2: Charlotte to Oklahoma City
Up next is the connecting flight from Charlotte to Oklahoma City! I had read that American Airlines was offering a new lounge concept at Charlotte to help with lounge overcrowding. It’s their version of a grab and go offering, called American Provisions. I left the Centurion Lounge a with plenty of time before my flightContinue reading “Let’s go to Oklahoma.

Let’s go to Oklahoma. Part 1: Richmond to Charlotte
For the next couple flights, we’re going to take a break from longer flights and talk about a couple short flights. This next trip was from Richmond, VA to Oklahoma City via Charlotte. When I booked the ticket, first class was available for only $90 more than economy, and since that $90 would cover twoContinue reading “Let’s go to Oklahoma. Part 1: Richmond to Charlotte”
San Francisco to IAD two ways
The next set of flights to discuss are not the most exciting flights, so I’ve combined them into one post. A few months ago, I published a review of San Francisco to Washington DC (DCA) in two directions in coach. Now, I have a follow-on review of a very similar flight: San Francisco to WashingtonContinue reading “San Francisco to IAD two ways”
Spring Break to Europe Part 2B: Aer Lingus to SFO!
After my short flight from Manchester, I headed for passport control. Unfortunately, my flight arrived at about the same time as flights from the United States, so the “other” passport line was extremely long and slow. I explained to the agent that I had come in from Manchester and was on my way to the United States,Continue reading “Spring Break to Europe Part 2B: Aer Lingus to SFO!”
Spring break to Europe! Part 2: Aer Lingus across the Irish Sea
It’s very uncommon that my second post from a trip is the beginning of the return trip to the United States. But that’s the situation we find ourselves in with this next report. I spent about a week in Europe, but there wasn’t a lot to report on for this blog. To get from London to Paris,Continue reading “Spring break to Europe! Part 2: Aer Lingus across the Irish Sea”
Spring break to Europe! Part 1: BA
For our next flight adventure, we’re heading to London on British Airways. As readers will know, this has been a very common method for me to get to Europe since I moved to San Francisco in 2022. In the case of this trip, my destinations were London, Paris, and Manchester, so this flight, once again,Continue reading “Spring break to Europe! Part 1: BA”
Alaska to DCA, both ways in economy
After returning from my trip to DC, I had a couple weeks off from travel before I had another trip… to DC (and Boston). This time, however, I ended up just flying Alaska Airlines both ways in economy. I actually had another Flagship First ticket booked for the way back, but I ended up decidingContinue reading “Alaska to DCA, both ways in economy”
Flagship First on miles! (JFK-SFO)
Upon arrival in JFK, I headed for the Chelsea lounge, which I’ve visited many times. Having just visited the DeltaOne lounge, I was excited to compare the two (almost) back-to-back. I’ve read a few times online that American’s strategy with its Flagship First product is to match the key features expected of a premium productContinue reading “Flagship First on miles! (JFK-SFO)”
Backtracking through New York. This time on American!
On the way back from DC, I was once again heading through NYC. This time, however, I was flying American Airlines, which can only mean one thing on this blog. Yep, it’s another Flagship First Transcontinental review! This review is split into two parts because I’ll use this first part as my review of theContinue reading “Backtracking through New York. This time on American!”
