Once Fiji Airways gets the A350s flying, I plan on upgrading Fiji to a Preferred Carrier. They have great service overall, however their current long-haul fleet is in need of an overhaul, coming soon (Jan 2020). Oh!!!, beside flying to Fiji itself, this airline makes a great alternative to flying to Australia. Who can complain about a few day stopover … Read More
I, for one, am extremely happy about Finnair resuming service to LAX. Starting March 31, 2019, Finnair begins flying 3 times weekly LAX to Helsinki HEL which is touted as being one of the most livable airports in the world… not to mention efficient. Finnair is going to give Los Angeles another great European option, and one of a great … Read More

So that it doesn’t get buried in the middle of this page… for LX40, I pre-booked the A La Carte “Healthy Dinner”, and it was a fantastic choice for an Economy flight. Well worth the effort and money, gave a long economy flight a great start. Time to head home, and I was looking forward to seeing ZRH Zurich again. … Read More
Overalll, I like Air Canada a lot. This was a no frills commuter kind of flight. But the seating ptich is an inch or two more that United or American Economy, and arriving at Toronto YYZ is quite a bit easier than one might expect. Even with a Passport Control, a very efficient process. I never have issues when traveling … Read More

Much has been written on the architecture and “Other Worldly” food presentation, but I think what has gotten lost, is that Kahn’s “New World Cuisine” is fantastic. Not Asian Fusion or Farm to the Table, or whatever a more recent trend in food may be… a truly unique … Read More

I have sworn off flying anymore Domestic Carrier 757s… just too old and frumpy a plane. Getting to LAX … Read More
