Living most of my life in the Midwest, I had never considered Alaska Airlines as a viable airline. My mind was definitely changed this last weekend when I flew Alaska Airlines non-stop to and from Seattle, Washington from San Diego, California.
The first thing that pleased me …

Flying long distances can be so uncomfortable and boring. So whatever an airline can do to make their passengers trip as pleasant as possible is much appreciated. Such is the case with Virgin America. Virgin America’s airfare is generally competitive and the service of their flight attendants are …

If you fly a lot then you probably know that when you are ready to get on a flight almost anything can happen to you because of the fact that you are in a rush to make it to the airport. I am someone who usually has very bad …

Charles De Gaulle International was one of the worst airport experiences I have ever had. I will say that the porters they had assigned to guide the bewildered English-speaking travelers were polite indeed, which we really did not expect and for which we were grateful. However, Charles …

I frequently fly between Finland and Germany using a Finish-based airline called Finnair (finnair.com). This company is not a low fare airline but it still provides flights for reasonable prices. As a rule I always plan each flight well in advance to get the better deal and this works …

As an alternative to using the South African Airways airline, which I usually do, I decided to explore the services provided by the British Airways.

They may be the cheapest out there, but every time I have flown with them its survival of the fittest. They don’t give you a seat number, so once they start boarding you have to run if you want to sit by your mate. They charge you for everything, …

I’ve been forced to take the Heathrow Express train from Paddington Station to the airport a number of times, as my flights have left so early that taking the Underground was impossible. Compared to the Underground, the prices are shockingly expensive, but certainly worth it if you want …

When it comes to airlines, I don’t really care for which regional airlines that I am going for. If it offers good services and a great experience, I am all for it. This particular airline from Germany called Air Berlin, is cheap and very reliable. The …

This is a bijou airport, as the French would no doubt call it. In other words, it is a tiny airport that calls itself international (and rightly so, since it handles international flights) yet it is on the scale of a local or regional airport.
The location of Perpignan is …

I have traveled only once on Kingfisher Airlines. I enjoyed the journey very much. In my opinion, Kingfisher Airlines is one of the best carriers. Nowadays, many people prefer to travel on Kingfisher airlines.
I traveled by economic class and the experience was really very good. I have no idea …

San Francisco International Airport is a very large airport, with long lines to check in. When they say you need to show up two hours early… they mean it! The worst part about SFO is the lack of food. I suggest you bring some with you, …

I was in Hongkong and was about to travel to another country. I booked for this Cathay Pacific Airways because I am used to take their plane everytime I am in Hongkong. I just like the service that they always provide their passengers that is why I am a …

Jet Blue does live up to its reputation as a fun airline to fly.

When I was very young our airport was called Friendship …

I travel around Europe rather frequently. Being born and rise near Italian border, I have quite some experience with Allitalia. In the past, lets call it pre-computer era, I used to book flights in person at the counter of some travel agency. No ways had I the possibility to …

Cebu Pacific used to lag right next to Philippine Airlines in providing domestic flights, but not anymore! Two years ago, Cebu Pacific revamped it’s image and bought a new fleet. The change didn’t just revitalize it’s image, it changed the way it interacted with customers.
I’ve traveled …

I recently flew Icelandair twice, once from London to Reykjavik and then about a week later from Reykjavik to Toronto. Both times, I felt that the crew on both flights was highly capable, and I felt completely safe with them. They ensured passengers’ comfort and safety, and …

The first time i boarded an aircraft from this fleet, i felt like running back out into the air port!. I was greeted with a foul smell that tempted me to cancel my journey. It was a fligth from murtala muhammed airport to istambul ataturk airport and it will …

Sydney airport has three terminals, T1 for international and T2/T3 for domestic flights. If you are a foreigner/stranger and arrive at one of Sydney airport terminals and nobody picks you up to the city, then you may want to board a city train, taxi, or shuttle bus.
By train, it …

I’ve flown Lufthansa (German airline) a few times to Frankfurt, Germany, and I was surprised that the airplanes were so old. The price was good, about $690, and it was right on time for both arrivals and departures. The service is good, and the attendants very polite, …

I like Cebu Pacific more than some other airlines that I’ve tried. I can’t say it was because Cebu Pacific was more comfortable or that the ambiance was better. It has more to do with their price.
It’s one of the cheapest air fares I’ve ever paid. I have …

As someone who enjoys traveling with my four legged companion I have tried almost every airline available. Continental is the BEST with pets by a landslide. Friendly and knowlagable staff at the pet safe desk are willing to help make your travel as easy as possible. Full sized planes …

So far, Singapore Airlines are the best I have ever been on. We went to China a few years ago going on the Singapore Airlines. It was a very positive experience.
This airline’s price is good, however you would have to book early during holiday seasons. The planes were very …

It’s nice to find a middle ground between expensive and good, and cheap and crappy airlines. I’d fly British Airways every time if I could, but the cost is always way way too much. After getting frustrated with Air Canada, it’s nice to have an airline that can take …

I love Southwest Airlines. Their website is easy to use and provides great price points. What I love most is the seating options. Providing you with an A, B, or C class based on when you checked in is a great idea. Assigned seating can …

Zanzibar seems to be a popular spot in Tanzania which was probably why there were direct flights (the plane stopped briefly at Dar-Es-Salaam but we did not have to disembark) from Johannesburg to Zanzibar City, the island’s capital. In fact, my husband and I jointly decide on which destinations …
