This is a must-do if you are visiting the wine lan This is a must-do if you are visiting the wine lands in Franschoek or Stellenbosch.

Interesting concept for business class from @zipai Interesting concept for business class from @zipair.tokyo_official No IFE, no extras just a fully flatbed seat. You can pay for a premium package that gives you all the frills for not much extra. At around £400 for a 7 hour flight I’d be very tempted by this. Be interesting to see if other airlines try it. Photo by @geram23 Would you try it for that price? #instaviation #instaplane #avgeek #businessclassflyer #cheapflights #japantravel #luxurytravel

Spot the hidden bar behind the waterfall. This is Spot the hidden bar behind the waterfall. This is the Cave Bar at @crystalcovebarbados which looks like a cave inside. Sometimes these sort of things can be tacky but I think they’ve done a great job. Also have to say amazing treatment as a @marriottbonvoy Platinum. Great upgrade, one manager has been over this evening to ask how it all was as they value their Platinums and Titanium’s. She even remembered my room number. I’m guessing they get less here than some hotels but it’s still impressive. #bonvoy #marriott #barbados #beachlife #wintersun #luxurytravel
