A few weeks ago I took a trip out to San Francisco with my girlfriend. When we began planning the trip I looked at several flight options, but none seem that appealing. As I reviewed all of my options I realized the only way to get to San Francisco at a reasonable time was to…
Finnair currently has two lounges in Helsinki-Vantaa Airport Terminal 2. The first is located near Gate 22 in the Schengen Area of the airport. All eligible Finnair passengers have access to this lounge most will pass this lounge on their way to the Non-Schengen area of the airport. Thankfully, because I was flying to New…
After a quick stop in Stockholm I was on my way back to the United States. To get home I decided to fly Finnair from Stockholm to Helsinki and onwards to New York (JFK). I ended up booking an itinerary with a longer than desired (for most) layover in Helsinki. Since I had some time…
Looking back, I can’t believe how this flight came to be. This whole trip started because I needed to get to Munich in June. To get to Munich I could have of course just booked a flight there, but what’s the fun in that? Instead, I decided to book a flight from Stockholm to New…

I’m flying to Frankfurt tonight to begin my trip to Stockholm. I have access to this lounge because I’m flying in a premium cabin on a Star Alliance operated flight. Those flying…
During my OneWorld Twice To Oslo trip I spent quite a bit of time in London Heathrow airport. This gave me plenty of time to visit several OneWorld Frequent Flyer lounges during each of my layovers. On each trip while heading east to Oslo I spent much of my time in Terminal 3 visiting the Qantas…
During my OneWorld Twice To Oslo I purposely planned two long layovers in London Heathrow airport. I spent much of the first long layover in the fantastic Cathay Pacific First Class Lounge. For my second long layover I decided to visit another one of the several OneWorld Lounges in Terminal 3. This time, I chose to…
During my two trips to Oslo I ended up booking two fairly long layovers in London. I did this to protect myself in case of missed flights or delays, but also to give myself plenty of time to visit a few lounges in the airport. See, London Heathrow offers some of the best OneWorld lounges in…
