Live and Let’s Fly Weekend Digest: December 17, 2017

Matthew Klint Posted onDecember 17, 2017November 14, 2023 Leave a Comment

After another trip to New York, I’m back in Los Angeles until tomorrow…when I’ll fly to Germany for Christmas. It has been a hectic month, so I am looking forward to some downtime.

American Airlines’ opened a beautiful new lounge and lounge-within-a-lounge in Los Angeles earlier this week. Here’s my review of the new lounge and new Flagship First Dining facility.

We’ll just cut to the chase. Please find a review of the week’s stories below.

Next week: a new product on a familiar airline and Christmas in Germany.
