Flight Review: Singapore Airbus A350-900 Business Class – MAN-IAH
This was the end of our trip to Corfu and Albania. After a night in Manchester, we were headed back home through Houston’s George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH). Boarding was quick and painless and we were quickly welcomed onto the Airbus A350-900 (the same aircraft type that we flew to Manchester Airport (MAN) at the beginning of our trip). The outbound flight review can be found here. Anthony’s Take: We got boarding passes at the airport and there was no line for Business Class passengers. The service was better on this flight and the food equally tasty. I do

FLIGHT REVIEW: Qantas QF153 Melbourne to Auckland in Business Class. Perfectly uneventful.
It’s hard for the food offered on a trans-Tasman flight to compete with what you have just eaten in the Melbourne First lounge, however good the service onboard QF153, this trans-Tasman flight between Melbourne and Auckland, New Zealand. Flight: QF153Route: If you are travelling on short-haul international on Qantas, the collective view is that you should aim for a flight with an Airbus A330 scheduled because that way, you get your actual Qantas flat beds in Business. I hold a contrary view. If it’s a daytime flight, and you are travelling with a companion, then the Boeing

Everything you need to know about how to watch sumo wrestling in Tokyo, Japan in 2025 and 2026: When and how to buy tickets, where to sit and tips for the best experience. We were determined to view a sumo wrestling match during our first trip to Japan. There were no tournaments that month so we took a very early train ride into a non-touristy part of Tokyo to watch the wrestlers practice at a sumo stable. As luck would have it, practice was canceled that day. Fortunately, our next trip to Tokyo was during a Sumo Grand Tournament

Korean Air Starts Airbus A350-900 Service
As of 27 January, Korean Air starts Airbus A350-900 service. The inaugural flight of KE’s newest aircraft type connected Seoul Incheon (ICN) to Osaka Kansai (KIX). Indeed, with Japan being a rapidly growing center of inbound tourism, it was no surprise that Korean Air opted for a short-haul across the Sea of Japan. (the second link opens a .pdf) The reason I highlighted the phrase short-haul is because I was aboard a United Boeing 787-800 in its first few weeks of TPAC (Transpacific) service. That was a big whoops, because it had to make an emergency landing. Fortunately,
