To catch our Qatar Airways flights to Cape Town, my girlfriend and I first needed to get from New York to Oslo. In the days leading up to our trip I searched frantically for Lufthansa First Class award space. In fact, I wrote an entire post about booking this flight here. Thankfully, the day before…
By the time this post is published I’ll be sitting in Frankfurt after (hopefully) another spectacular Lufthansa First Class flight. Specifically, I hope that I’m taking a quick nap in the incredible Lufthansa First Class Terminal! The reason I held up publishing this post is because this Lufthansa First Class flight was a surprise. My…
As you can tell from the title there’s no point in hiding what the purpose of this post is. Earlier today I managed to snag two Etihad First Class seats from Abu Dhabi to London by using American Airlines AAdvantage miles. It’s a flight that I’m incredibly excited about for a few reasons, of which…
In late 2018 I booked some absolutely incredible Cathay Pacific First Class fares thanks to a pricing mistake. Because of this mistake, which Cathay Pacific honored, I’d finally have the chance to fly Cathay Pacific First Class and Business class between the US and Asia It was arguably the deal of the decade, but there…

The flights from Hong Kong to Sydney via Singapore in…
After the 15 hour flight from Los Angeles on American Airlines we had about 6 hours until our Singapore Airlines flight to Singapore. During our fairly long layover we actually dropped our bags at the Singapore Airlines check-in counter and then took the high-speed train into Hong Kong for a few hours. After a quick…
Ok fine, I’ll admit it, the title to this post is a bit misleading. I absolutely did not spend $31,000 to fly to Hanoi Vietnam this weekend. However, I did fly between the United States and Hanoi this past weekend and I did so entirely in premium cabins. Had I paid cash for this entire…
Well 2019 is already off to a pretty incredible start. Two weekends ago I took a quick trip to Hong Kong to get a jump-start on earning AAdvantage Executive Platinum status again this year. That trip was a bit hectic as I nearly missed my Cathay Pacific A350-1000 flight in Premium Economy, but once I made…
Yesterday I wrote about an exciting promotion to transfer American Express Membership Rewards points to British Airways for a 40% bonus. In that post, I mentioned that a goal of mine in the coming year is to fly British Airways First Class. Shortly after writing that post I decided to look into the best way…
