A Narrowbody Across The Atlantic? TAP Air Portugal’s A321LR Business Class Worked For Me
I continued my indirect trip home with a TAP Air Portugal flight from Washington to Lisbon on the A321LR in business class, a short but pleasant flight. I’ll offer first impressions of my flight here and a full review later on. TAP Air Portugal A321LR Business Class – My First Impressions Flying transatlantic business class on a narrow body jet is a dealbreaker for many travelers, but not for me. I generally prefer widebody jets (and some widebodies like the A350 or 787 more than others like the 767), but I don’t mind the A321

Spectacular: Malaysia Airlines A330-900neo Business Class
I had a very nice flight from Kuala Lumpur to Bali on a brand new Malaysia Airlines A330-900neo business class, a beautiful aircraft with a posh business class cabin. The only reason I flew to Bali (and why the side trip to Timor-Leste came up) was because I wanted to review the latest addition to the Malaysia Airlines fleet: the A330-900neo. I’ve flown this aircraft on Delta and Virgin Atlantic and quite like it… I booked my ticket using British Airways Avios at a cost of 22,000 Avios and $38 in taxes (a paid ticket was over 500

Review: Thai Airways Business Class Airbus A321neo (BKK-CEI)
For the next portion of my two-part birthday trip to the Golden Triangle, we flew Thai Airways’ Airbus A321neo business class on the 65-minute flight from Bangkok (BKK) to Chiang Rai (CEI). I was looking forward to this flight, as the A321neo is Thai Airways’ newest plane, with flat beds in business class. So while I knew service would be limited on a domestic flight, I was still excited to give this product a try. All-in-all, I found the Thai Airways domestic business class experience to be great, and to come at a reasonable premium. While it’s nothing over-the-top,

Review: Turkmenistan Airlines Business Class Boeing 737 (ASB-DEL)
For the next sector of my Four Seasons Yacht via Turkmenistan and Saudi Arabia adventure, I flew Turkmenistan Airlines’ Boeing 737-800 business class on the 3hr5min flight from Ashgabat (ASB) to Delhi (DEL). In the previous installment, I reviewed Turkmenistan Airlines’ Boeing 777-300ER business class, so it was nice to also see what the short haul product was like. With that in mind, I actually found this flight to be a bit more unusual and memorable — the flight was packed, the inflight meal was massive (and it took forever to serve), and I got (politely) told to stop taking pictures.
