Virgin Atlantic to US West Coast and other offers

5 different things to do in Las Vegas

Virgin Atlantic are not the cheapest airline for business class but there are a couple of reasonable deals to the West Coast currently on Ee Eu fares from Luxembourg. This is a handy ex EU departure point as BA Club Europe fares are normally very cheap for positioning. Watch the flights that you pick though, as some route via Manchester with Flybe which means you will miss out on the amazing Clubhouse lounge at London.

Melia hotels – up to 45% off

Melia The level infinity pool Alicante

We have stayed in quite a few Melia hotels including ME London, Melia Alicante, Gran Melia Madrid and more recently Melia Hanoi. I find their The Level club rooms very good. Their week-long sale is offering some impressive discounts if you are a member of Melia Rewards – it’s free to join and you get Gold level membership with the American Express Platinum card.

As a MeliáRewards member, you will have exclusive access to 25% off all the Wonder Week hotels, plus the other discounts available to everyone else and offers such as kids stay free at selected hotels! Combined these offer a total of up to 45% off. The deals must be booked by 10 June 2019.

    ITA Matrix also showing ARN-HGK with QR £1395, is that a good price or should I wait??

    Taking my first ever J class flight tonight, so unbelievably excited and it’s all thanks to you guys @ TLFL. Doing an EX EU ARN-BKK with QR…..review to follow should you wish to use it.

      Matt
      That’s decent to HKG. Remember you would still have to fly from bkk to hkg anyway.
      We paid a bit more from arn direct to hkt. When we worked it out, the benefits of getting to hkt direct from doh were better.

      Enjoy, you will love it. Are you spending any extra time in Stockholm?

      I’m sure you will love it Matt. Yes that’s about as good as you will get to Hong Kong.

Checking out the new No 1 lounge at @heathrow_airp Checking out the new No 1 lounge at @heathrow_airport T2. Very impressed with the elegant feel to the lounge. It’s definitely a step up from the older style of No1. I’d go as far to say that it looks better than quite a few airline lounges. All drinks are included apart from champagne and there was a good selection of tasty food as well. Full review coming soon. #airportlounge #heathrowairport #luxurytravel #no1lounge
