CUNARD QM2 QUEEN MARY 2 Q4 PENTHOUSE SUITE REVIEW

…abin, and been upgraded into a Q4 Penthouse Suite. On Cunard, like on many airlines, there are broadly 3 different classes that are linked to the restaurant that you eat in: Britannia; Princess Grill and Queens Grill. Queens Grill is kind of like their “first class”. It is a great experience and the dining room is not only beautiful but has incredible food (where you chose from the menu for that day or an a la carte menu if nothing takes your fanc…

Victoria Falls, Livingstone, Zambia

…huttle service, but the most connections are via Johannesburg. A number of airlines fly to and from there into Livingstone every day, including British Airways and SAA. A various times of the year the Rovos Rail service also goes to the Falls. Flights are busy, as most people tend to come in and out within 2 days and so the flights get very busy. You need a Visa to enter Zambia. Best to get this before you go, though you can get when you arrive. B…

British Airways Club World Upstairs on 747 (old style seats)

…Believe it or not, but this picture of the old style seats on British Airways Club Class is the most viewed of all of the photos I have on Flickr (by miles). Also, the most read postings on my blog are the ones that review airlines, airline lounges and have pictures and comments on the seats and the service. This makes sense as I find when I am looking to travel on an airline I have not been on before, I hunt out information on the seats!…

Virgin Atlantic: 10 minutes from check-in to lounge put to the test

…s and my photoset) does not take long. The Virgin seats, which quite a few airlines are now using, are good as they give you a feeling of privacy and with the seat flipping over onto a smooth flat bed are usually good for a good sleep. I went off Virgin badly after a bad experience where they handled things poorly, but this experience has put them back on the list (as it were). Once of the worst parts of flying these days is the airport experience…

Cunard Queen Victoria: 4 nights cruise May 2008: My Journal

…iliar with Cunard, they have 3 types of cruise experience – a bit like the airlines. There is Britannia, then Princess Grill and then Queens grill. Each has their own dining room. In the case also of the Grills there is a special lounge/ bar, outside eating area and also a deck with loungers only for Grill passengers giving more space, and a place to escape to. Our cruise agent, the amazingly efficient and friendly Jane Chadwick of Go Cruise, had…

Lufthansa Flight and Lounge Heathrow Terminal 2

…p in. There was t-mobile internet wireless access you could buy (why don’t airlines just make it free in lounges). From the lounge you get a view of part of Terminal 1 and Terminal 2 gates. So what about the flight? We were on a Boeing 737-300. The business class seats looked flimsy and are basically economy seats but with more space between you and your neighbour as they block out the middle seat with a small table thing. The seats are all though…

Heathrow Terminal 2: destroying the airline business queue by queue…

…trying to destroy the airline business, starting with all of the European airlines that use T2 (BA uses T1 and T4, and from March 2008 moves to the new T5). I was flying out of Terminal 2 Heathrow to Dusseldorf (Germany) today. What a nightmare. The queue to get into the security area stretches the full length of the terminal (about 400 yards). That takes 10 to 15 minutes to get to the roped off area where you then wind round for another 10 to 15…

Prague, Czech Republic. Review, photos and video tour of this magical European city

…a very large airport with many connections and options including low-cost airlines from many European, and especially the UK, cities. It can be very cost effective to get to and from Prague. The airport is about half an hour by car from the city, and buses are the easiest way. Or book a pick-up in advance via the hotel you are staying at. Many of the tourist leaflets advise that if you are using a taxi from a taxi rank, or hailing one, that you a…
