Applying For A Vietnam E-Visa With A US Passport

Over the past few years we’ve seen some incredible Premium Cabin fares from various OneWorld airlines (Qatar and Cathay) from Vietnam back to the United States. I’ve personally been fortunate enough to jump in on a few of these fares which has been a ton of fun. However, beginning a trip in Vietnam presents a…
Live Blog: May 2019 Mileage Run Layover In Hong Kong

For those of you who follow this blog regularly you may have already noticed a theme. That is, this year, I’ve been to Asia… a lot. Looking back to earlier this year I’ve already been to Hong Kong three times. My first visit was back in January 2019 when I flew over in Premium Economy…
My Updated Flight Memory – April 2019

A few months ago I decided to upload my collection of boarding passes into the Flight Memory website. For those who haven’t heard of Flight Memory, the website is a place where users can save their flights. The website stores data such as the airline flown, flight number, seat, aircraft, flight time, etc. Once you…
A Great British Airways Business Class Deal I Won’t Use

One of the most common questions I get from family and friends is, “where I can I find these flights?” Usually the question comes after I talk about how I flew to Asia or Europe in business class for less than they paid to cross the US in a middle seat. However, the answer isn’t…

Review: American Airlines Business Class 77W Los Angeles To Hong Kong

To begin our trip to Sydney my girlfriend and I met in Los Angeles at LAX’s Tom Bradley International Terminal (TBIT). At the time we took our trip she was living in New York and I was living in Chicago so meeting in Los Angeles proved the simplest solution. Los Angeles also made sense for…
My $31,000 OneWorld First Class Weekend

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…
Lackluster T-Mobile One and Google Fi Service In Vietnam

Greetings from Hanoi! I’m here to begin the first leg of my Cathay Pacific New Year’s Eve Pho Fare. I’ll admit, it’s a clever name for a mistake fare, but it’s not mine, thanks FlyerTalk. I’ve been in Hanoi for just under a day and have been enjoying this incredible city. I’m once again utterly…
