Gulf Air A320 Business Class Review

Of all my flights on this trip, this one turned out to be the most pleasant surprise. Bahrain International Airport is one of my least favorites in the world and the transit process is always a pain. I queued...

A luxury hotel nestled in the heart of Frankfurt’s Sachsenhausen district offers opulent accommodations and beautiful common areas, but the service left something to be desired. My business partner John and I had some work in Frankfurt last week...

Etihad A319 Business Class Review

While Etihad is nothing short of spectacular in many ways, it does not measure up to Qatar Airways on intra-Gulf flights. We departed from a remote stand, meaning a long bus ride from the gate to the aircraft. Etihad...

We laugh about Emirates First Class being gaudy and pretentious, but the GVK First Class lounge in Mumbai Terminal 2 takes ostentatiousness to a whole new level. That’s a backhanded compliment, but I did enjoy this lounge. It’s gold and...
