This week I’m going to shake things up a bit and share with you a recent trip I took to Denver to go to a friend’s wedding! Now, coming from the San Francisco area, you might think the logical option is to fly United to Denver and take advantage of their hub-to-hub flying. I liveContinue reading “Delta A220 economy seats: San Jose to Denver via Salt Lake City (Companion Pass)”

Wednesday Reblog: Amtrak!
For this week’s Wednesday reblog, I thought it’d be fun to switch gears and bring back up an Amtrak trip I took a while ago. I’ve recently been considering checking out the Acela First Class cabin, but I haven’t yet found a route that it makes sense for yet. Maybe one day soon! In theContinue reading “Wednesday Reblog: Amtrak!”
British Airways Economy Class Eastbound Transatlantic Daytime Flight (January 2026 EuroTrip)
Bottom-line up front British Airways’ day-time flights eastbound across the Atlantic offer a convenient way to travel to London without “losing a night” to travel in exchange for losing the day instead. If you struggle to sleep on a plane, this type of flight is worth considering. The exit row seats on this aircraft typeContinue reading “British Airways Economy Class Eastbound Transatlantic Daytime Flight (January 2026 EuroTrip)”
2025 comes to a close with a final regional flight: RIC-BOS
It’s time for my final flight of 2025! It’s not a particularly interesting flight by itself, but I got some pictures of the Delta SkyClub in Boston, so I figured it would be worth including! This was also my last flight as a Delta Platinum Medallion member; in 2026, I only have Delta Silver Medallion,Continue reading “2025 comes to a close with a final regional flight: RIC-BOS”
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”
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”
San Francisco to LA, two ways on Alaska Airlines
After returning from the East Coast, I didn’t even make it two weeks before it was time to fly again. This trip was just a short weekend trip to Los Angeles. I booked it the night before the flight, so as soon as I paid for the ticket, it was time to check in. TheContinue reading “San Francisco to LA, two ways on Alaska Airlines”
2024 comes to a close: SFO-IAD in “Premium” Economy
We’re gonna squeeze in one final flight for the blog before we call 2024 complete! Only 4 months into the year… though I’m actually almost a month ahead of last year. This final flight is, unfortunately, going to be a rather unexciting flight. It’s one final transcontinental flight from San Francisco to Washington DC. IContinue reading “2024 comes to a close: SFO-IAD in “Premium” Economy”
Back-to-back(ish) SFO-LAX-SFO flight experience comparison
Unlike a lot of people, I tend not to travel as much during the summer. Partially that’s because I’m busier in my non-airplane life over the summer and partially that’s because I prefer to travel during off-season when the flights are both cheaper and less busy. The means for the next post, we’re jumping fromContinue reading “Back-to-back(ish) SFO-LAX-SFO flight experience comparison”
June EuroTrip Part 2: LHR to Milan Linate… in “Euro Traveller”
After about 4 days in England, it was time for a short 2-day trip to Milan, Italy (LIN). The only reason for this trip was to reposition for my trip back to the US to take advantage of cheaper fares when leaving some European airports compared to starting in the US or UK. Because IContinue reading “June EuroTrip Part 2: LHR to Milan Linate… in “Euro Traveller””
