I've recently shared my impressions of United Airlines first class and Alaska Airlines first class flights in the coronavirus era, so figured I'd also share my experience on a recent Delta Air Lines Airbus A220 first class flight from Chicago to Salt…
Airline Reviews
After an amazing five days in California, it was time for my mom and me to fly back to Tampa. While we flew United Airlines first class on the outbound (with a connection), we returned nonstop on Alaska Airlines. It's pretty simple -- at the time we…
As I explained in the introduction post to the trip report, I decided to book us on United Airlines from Tampa to San Francisco. In this post I wanted to share some general thoughts on our experience flying with United, both in terms of the hard and…
To get back to Miami we flew SWISS business class. SWISS was one of the few European airlines offering service to Miami in August, and the airline even operated the route with its A340-300. SWISS recently refurbished the interiors of all A340s, so I…
Our transatlantic flight to get to Turkey was from Montreal to Munich in Lufthansa business class, and boy was it an interesting one (see this post for a summary of how we booked our ticket). I've reviewed Lufthansa's A350 business class before during…
Our first flight enroute to Bodrum was from Fort Lauderdale to Montreal on Air Canada. Let me share the itinerary that we booked to get to Bodrum, and then I'll get into my review of Air Canada's updated business class service. Understandably airlines…
Ford and I are spending the weekend in Nicaragua to visit Calala Island. In the past I didn't review "run of the mill" flights, though I've realized they have the potential to be useful as well, so am trying to do when it's practical. For example, I've…
After my ground experience in Manila I was extremely excited to board my Philippine Airlines flight to Toronto. So, how is Philippine Airlines' A350? Can they compete with other excellent airlines in the region, or do they still have a long way to go?…
For the return portion of my trip to North America I decided to book Philippine Airlines. The airline is trying to reinvent themselves, and they have new A350s with an excellent business class product. I had flown the airline once before in 777 business…
I provided an in-depth review of Starlux Airlines' A321neo business class on the flight from Taipei to Penang the day prior, so I'll keep this relatively short. In that installment I talked about how I booked, the amazing service, the cabin layout, etc.…
At long last it was time to fly Starlux Airlines, which had launched operations just a few days prior. What was it like to fly with this self-proclaimed "detail-oriented luxury airline?" Starlux Airlines currently flies to just three destinations, and…
To continue my journey to Taipei, I flew China Airlines' A350-900 business class nonstop from London Gatwick to Taipei. I was keen to experience China Airlines' A350 business class: I reviewed China Airlines' 777-300ER business class in 2016, and was…
Having recently reviewed Virgin Atlantic's A350 business class, I figured it made sense to also review their 787 business class. Virgin Atlantic doesn't have any immediate plans to introduce their new business class seats on the 787, so how does the…
To kick off this trip I flew from Tampa to Boston. I was starting in Tampa because I was visiting my mom before the trip, and I was going to Boston because of the airline I was connecting to from there (you guys will just have to wait to find out what…
To finish off the trip it was time to fly back home via Seattle on Delta's A330-900neo, which the airline started service with in July 2019. This would be my first-ever flight on an A330-900neo, and only my second-ever flight in Delta One Suites (I had…
In July 2019, All Nippon Airways introduced spectacular-looking new first & business class seats with barely any lead time, as their first plane with these seats entered service just weeks later. I knew I had to try them, because both first and business…
Welcome to what will be the shortest trip report installment in OMAAT history (I think?). I figured I should write about the Munich to London segment to be thorough, but there's not that much to say, especially since I've reviewed Lufthansa's intra-Europe…
After flying ANA's incredible new business class from New York to Tokyo, it was time to fly Lufthansa's business class back to London, via Munich. What is business class like on Lufthansa's self proclaimed flagship aircraft, the A350-900? Well... Lufthansa…
In July 2019, All Nippon Airways introduced spectacular-looking new first & business class seats with barely any lead time, as their first plane with these seats entered service just weeks later. I knew I had to try them, because both first and business…
While domestic flight reviews might not be as exciting as some international ones, I figure they're still useful. In this post I wanted to review my Miami to New York JFK flight in Delta Air Lines' A321 first class, which helped me position for my review…
While I had flown Cathay Pacific first class many times before, I was excited to fly them this time because the airline recently announced a major refresh to their first class soft product. And what a flight this was... talk about ending a trip on a…
After a short night at the Hilton Beijing Capital Airport, it was time to fly back to Hong Kong, before continuing to Boston. I'm going to keep this review relatively brief, because I reviewed Cathay Dragon's A330 first class from Shanghai to Hong Kong…
To finish off my Miami to Beijing itinerary I was flying Cathay Dragon's A330 business class from Hong Kong to Beijing. While I had flown Cathay Dragon first class before, this was my first time in their business class. As I outlined in the introduction…
Now it's time for a review of American's infamous Dallas to Hong Kong flight... As I outlined in the introduction post, the outbound portion of this trip was a paid ticket. I had booked a roundtrip ticket from Miami to Beijing, with the outbound in paid…
