Virgin Atlantic is definitely one of my preferred airlines. However, I often find its prices higher than that of competitors.

This was my first time trying Thai Airways Business Class so I was quite excited – I had high expectations of terrific Asian service. I was not disappointed. As you would expect the service levels were very high. However, this was not the same at some of the lounges… Find out all you need to …
In 2017 I flew premium economy with Qantas Sydney to Hong Kong return. It was a fantastic experience. In fact, it was so good it made me question if I could really justify the extra amount to fly business class if it wasn’t an Australia – Europe/US flight. So when was looking at flying from …
