Flying from Stockholm to London via Amsterdam Schiphol might not be the most obvious routing, but it turned out to be a surprisingly enjoyable one. Join me as I experience KLM’s Boeing 737 in Business Class from Stockholm to Amsterdam before connecting onto German Airways’ unique Deutsche...

Join me as I take to the skies on one of Europe’s most unusual flights aboard Ethiopian Airlines’ Boeing 787 Dreamliner fifth freedom service between Oslo and Stockholm. At just under 35 minutes in the air, this is one of the shortest scheduled widebody flights in the world, offering the rare...

In this review, I fly Norwegian’s Boeing 737 MAX 8 from Madrid to Oslo to see whether one of Europe’s best-known low-cost airlines can still deliver a great passenger experience in 2026. For £147, this journey included seat selection, cabin baggage, a hot meal, snacks, drinks and a flight across...

I'm back in Madrid to put Iberia’s Premium Economy cabin to the test on board the Airbus A350, flying back to London Heathrow on their short haul route. Whilst technically dubbed as an Economy seat with no service on the route, I still dive straight in, showing you the generous legroom, winged...

I've never flown Air China until now and today, I put their long-haul Economy Class to the test onboard their Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner, flying from São Paulo Guarulhos to Madrid Barajas. Heading into this flight, I was genuinely excited to finally experience Air China for myself, but what...

Today we're aboard one of the world’s most fascinating fifth freedom routes as we fly with Air Canada in Business Class from Buenos Aires to São Paulo on the Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner. What should’ve been a straightforward regional hop quickly turned into a very memorable flight. From outstanding...

We're back in Brazil and in this video, I take you onboard LATAM's Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner for a widebody flight from São Paulo to Santiago, a journey of just a few hours, but one that promises a long-haul experience on a short-haul route. From check-in to boarding, and of course the full...

Chaos at LaGuardia… and we’re cutting it very fine... Join me on this American Airlines domestic economy flight from New York to Dallas as a routine departure quickly turns stressful, with long lines, confusion, and what feels like a full-on TSA meltdown threatening to derail the entire journey...

This week, I put Finnair’s Premium Economy to the test on a long-haul flight, to see whether it really lives up to the “premium” name. At first glance, there’s a lot to like: a stylish, well-designed seat with generous recline that feels like a real step up from Economy. But as the flight goes...

What started as a simple journey home quickly turned into something far more interesting… Instead of paying over £270 for a direct flight, I flew Lufthansa’s Business Class from Paris to London via Frankfurt for just 4,194 miles + £119 in taxes and fees. On this trip, I experienced not one, but...

Today, I’m taking a gamble on Omani low-cost carrier SalamAir, flying from Doha to Muscat onboard their Airbus A321neo. Low-cost airlines can be a bit of a lottery - you book the ticket, keep expectations in check, and hope the experience matches the price. But every now and then, those gambles...

This week I’m flying with Qatar Airways in their Qsuite Lite business class cabin onboard the Boeing 787-9, from Copenhagen to Doha. After a disappointing previous experience in economy, I was curious to see whether this flight would change my perspective. The 787-9 features the Adient Ascent...

The Captain and cabin crew provided consistent, transparent updates throughout, turning what could have...

Sichuan Airlines operates one of the more unusual fifth freedom routes in Europe, linking Istanbul with Athens as part of its long-haul network from Chengdu — and in this video, I review the experience onboard their Airbus A330. From check-in at Istanbul Airport to the inflight experience, I...

This video picks up where last week’s journey left off, connecting onward from Lufthansa’s long-haul A350 service from Hong Kong to Frankfurt, onto this short 70-minute hop from Frankfurt to London Heathrow. Despite the short flight time, there’s still plenty to explore — including a look at...

Join me on board Lufthansa’s Airbus A350-900 for the long-haul journey from Hong Kong to Frankfurt, where I test out what might just be the airline’s most impressive Economy Class seat to date. This flight features an extra-legroom bulkhead seat, and in this review I break down whether it truly...

This is a short hop of just 68 minutes, but what followed was one of the most impressive short-haul premium experiences I’ve had in a long time. From an immaculately executed service flow to a crew that worked in perfect harmony, Cathay Pacific showed how even the shortest flights can be done...
