As you will know as a regular reader I rarely write about cruises. There are so many other blogs specialised in this area, it doesn’t seem worth it. But with Virgin Voyages having the tie-up with Virgin Atlantic and the possibility to earn miles in the future on cruises, it…
You may remember a couple of months ago, Paul went on a press trip courtesy of Virgin Atlantic to try out their new A350 shortly after it went into service. He was somewhat disappointed by the product, although some of the issues he encountered were due to be fixed. I…
Firstly – whilst I want to thank BA for allowing us to fly this amazing product, it wasn’t without a headache! Getting rebooked on Qantas, after the strike dates were announced was a huge effort. But I’m not here to moan about BA! (I’ll save that for another day 😉…

In January this year, Roving Reporter (RR) and I set off on rather an epic journey to reach Auckland. We paid around £2100 to fly from Stockholm with Singapore Airlines. This meant routing via Moscow and then Singapore before a stop off at my favourite hotel, The Sanchaya (review coming…
Firstly an update, the more keen-eyed and tech minded people may have noticed that the site did not transition to a secure site on Friday as originally planned. It is currently scheduled for Tuesday but I will confirm on Monday whether there will any new posts on Tuesday. Secondly, you…
