In order to fly Lufthansa First Class back across the Atlantic I had to connect. When I looked though Lufthansa’s First Class availability on the United website I found a few flights that connected in New York and a few flights that connected in Washington DC. All of the DC options required a change in airports so…
After an extremely short trip to Frankfurt (4 hours) it was finally time to head home. I originally planned on booking either a paid flight on OneWorld or an award economy flight with United. Instead I decided to fly Lufthansa First Class home on the beautiful Boeing 747-8i. I opted to fly Lufthansa First Class…
After an incredible flight on Singapore Airlines Suites Class to Frankfurt it was almost time to turn around and head home. I would have loved to stay in Germany longer than a few hours, but sadly I had an obligation on Monday morning and had to go back to Chicago. I didn’t really think this trip through…
After a long day of traveling to New York from Chicago via Atlanta, it was finally time to board my Singapore Airlines Suites Class flight to Frankfurt.

There are currently 6 different concourses,…

Over the past few years I’ve used miles for hotels nights, a few domestic flights, and to buy some merchandise (stupid)! Until this last-minute trip I had never used points for an “unforgettable” experience.…
One of the thing’s that I’d like to do with trip reports is put an end cap on the experience. Many trip reports out there feature an introduction, but few I read feature a physical conclusion. This conclusion should serve as a high level summary of the entire trip. Installments My Paris Trip Report Introduction American…
As my girlfriend and I wrapped up our week in Paris it was finally time to officially come back into the United States. We arrived back at Chicago O’Hare International after our American Airlines business class flight from Paris. After our great trip it was finally time to clear immigrations back in the US. Typically clearing…
After an amazing week in Paris it was finally time to come home. I originally booked our flight home on American’s newly retrofitted 767 aircraft, but weeks before departure American swapped the plane to a 787-800. I originally selected our flight because of the 2-4-2 configuration in economy, but the swap meant a 3-3-3 configuration. Once I noticed the change…
