For this article, I am going to be examining the other Reward Charts. No, not the one you had as a child to measure good behavior but the only other logical choice: OneWorld Multi-Carrier Partner Redemption Charts. Say what? These delicate charts, vastly…

Great Deal: $1,500 SriLankan Business Class Fares From Frankfurt To Colombo
Oneworld member SriLankan Airlines is going through a really tough time right now. They recently leased more than half of their new A330-300 fleet to Pakistan at breakeven prices just to reduce their heavy losses. Sadly, this came at a high cost: SriLankan…
Oneworld Just Eliminated A Very Customer Friendly Policy
In terms of overall benefits, I consider the oneworld alliance to be all around best. That's because as a oneworld Emerald member I receive access to international first class lounges, like the Qantas First Class Lounge Sydney, Cathay Pacific First Class…

Finnair Cancels Flights To One Of The Places I Most Want To Visit
Last August I wrote about how Finnair was planning on launching seasonal flights between Helsinki, Finland, and Longyearbyen, Norway. The route was scheduled to operate 3x weekly between June 1 and August 28, 2016, using an Embraer E-190 aircraft. For…
Review: Finnair Business Class A340 Helsinki To London
Intra-Europe business class is usually a pretty underwhelming product. It even makes domestic first class in the US look good. On most European airlines it's simply an economy seat with a blocked middle and improved service & food. For whatever reason,…
Review: Finnair Premium Lounge Helsinki Airport
After visiting the Almost@Home Lounge, I headed to the Finnair Lounge at around 5:55AM, given that it opened at 6AM. The Finnair Lounge Helsinki Airport is located between gates 36 and 37. So coming from the Almost@Home Lounge I had to walk through a…
Review: Finnair Business Class A350 New York To Helsinki
Finnair operates out of Terminal 8 at JFK, which is the terminal primarily occupied by American. I'm starting the trip report here since my flights from Los Angeles to Dallas to New York were uneventful, and I also barely had time to use the lounge.…
Introduction: The Long Way Between LA And London
Welcome to my first new trip report of 2016, as my goal for this year is to sample as many new first & business class products as possible. And I'm sure you guys will agree this is a good start. ;) The way this trip came to be is sort of funny. In mid-December…
My Finnair A350 Business Class Flight In 10 Pictures
Hello from Helsinki, where I'm presently chilling out and waiting for my next flight (no pun intended). ;) Suffice to say I was in absolute shock when I got here, given that I've spent most of the past few months in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and…
Review: SriLankan Business Class A330-300 Colombo To Male
I can't even begin to explain how excited I was to fly SriLankan's brand new A330-300, which features their new reverse herringbone seats. SriLankan has a total of five of these planes on order. Since this flight was being operated by an A330, there…
