This is the second part of the review. You can find part one here. Food and drink A selection of champagne was offered almost immediately (either the classic or a rosé), once I stowed my bags and got comfortable in my suite. I was also brought a small bowl of…
Long-haul travel is back, and – surprisingly – quite easy. Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific Islands are a looking better and better as a holiday destination these days: not only are many keen to reunite with family and friends after years of border restrictions, but the area is relatively…
Air fares are currently much higher than usual due to the high demand and lack of staff to put on extra flights. The UK is generally worse than most of Europe, so it’s worth considering starting elsewhere to save a considerable amount of money. At the moment I’d be building…
Check-in Malta is a good airport to fly out of generally. It’s pretty small and everything is in one terminal. I arrived 1 hour 45 minutes before departure and the check in was literally deserted – not a single passenger to be seen. I was very unimpressed with the check-in…

Today’s reader review from Max is of one of the many wet leases that BA are using to get around it’s crew issues. Leasing an aircraft “wet” means it comes complete with crew. Food and drink should be the same as you would get on a BA flight. I will…
In part 1 I looked at Finnair’s new AirLounge non-reclining business class seat. In this article, I will look at the new business class dining concept and the service on board as well as Wi-Fi and entertainment. This was a normal flight, not a press trip and the crew had…
