Hello Everyone! Here are some holiday travel tips to help make your seasonal flying experience much smoother! 1. Best chance to get to your destination on date and time: Take an early morning flight and try to avoid connections if possible! This way, the jet you will be taking is usually in position the night before and is available for you in the morning.

Welcome to my trip report on Starlux Premium Economy Class Experience! This is my ride, B-58502, the airline's Airbus A350-900. I enjoyed my A350 ride with Starlux. Introduction When the chance to fly with Starlux came, I decided to go for it even though it happened during my busiest period. At that point of time, I need a short break and Taiwan was the perfect place to get away from work.

Long-haul flights or otherwise, it’s always great to catch up on some entertainment during the flight. It’s not only a great way to entertain the tiny tots, but parents can also catch up on some of their favourite TV shows. Moreover, planes are a wonderful place to watch the latest blockbusters. It’s great to have different airlines offer diverse standards of in-flight entertainment.

We were so happy that we had made it to Oshkosh , but in reality we were underprepared and overwhelmed of the actual EAA Airventure show. As we had lost already one day of our original planning as we got stuck in Reykjavik , and judging the stress we had endured in the whole trip so far, we decided that we nevertheless would stay here a full 4 days and not 3 by sticking to our original schedule.

Many veterans reach out after their day at Grounded No More with stories of how the experience helped them. Some think about their flight when they are having a bad day. Some were reminded that people care about them in a time when they desperately needed it. “It’s overwhelming the changes you see in people when they come out and experience this, and the families as well,” said founder Anthony Anger.

NAFI NOTAMs #48 Why do you even have an instrument rating? ~Guest Blogger Aaron Dabney The new CFI, a client of mine, had just explained to the newly-minted instrument pilot that the proposed flight was below his personal minimums. That's the question he got in response. After a moment's silent gratitude that I'd had nothing to do with the instrument pilot's training, I told the CFI over the phone he was doing exactly the right thing.

The Ford Tri-Motor, as the first luxury airliner, transformed global travel, heralding the era of commercial flight. Today, as I dream of piloting cutting-edge aircraft across continents, I owe a debt of gratitude to these vintage wonders and the visionaries behind them as well as to the organizations that maintain them. My love at first sight evolved into some research and deep thoughts (at least as deep as a teenage girl can go) and some unanswered questions.
