Virgin America Reviews. First Class Review With Photos.

…They recline and have foot rests, like the pre-flat bed type. Lots of leg room. Throughout the plane is a great in-flight system. You pay for headphones in main cabin. On the system you can watch live TV with about 10 channels, on demand TV and movies, watch your flight. There is also wireless internet access at just under $6 for and hour and half flight. We got drinks and snacks (crisps, chocolates). The flight crew are also chatty with their an…

BA British Airways Club World Business Class Seat Review

…y the arm rests going down to level with the flat bed and so you have more room around the upper body. This makes a big difference. They claim you have 25% more space. The section where your feet rests is also bigger and a better shape, and also I could lie completely flat unlike before where it was about two inches too short (I am 6″ 2′) – more private. Instead of the silly screens there is now a plastic screen that goes up and you can see nothin…

London Heathrow Terminal 5: British Airways Concorde First Lounge

…s, and there also seems to be cabana rooms you can book to nap in. Meeting room and boardroom is available. There is free wi-fi access. I also visited the massive executive lounge in the B section of Terminal 5, where my flight departed from (B section is where many of the long haul flights depart from, and is reached by a small monorail) Summary The lounge has some style and is more sober than the Virgin Upper Class Lounge, which you would expect…

QE2 A PICTORIAL JOURNEY: Book review

QE2 A PICTORIAL JOURNEY: Book review

…s does what it says! I like the fact that it covers basically every public room and each of the accommodations in neat sections. with photographs showing what the ship looks like. I would love to have had this book before I did my first (and only!) crossing on the ship back in 2004. It is a simple idea for a book and one that will be of benefit to past and new fans of the ship. It may also prove to be an interesting record of what the ship looked…

Lufthansa Flight and Lounge Heathrow Terminal 2

Lufthansa Flight and Lounge Heathrow Terminal 2

…a lot of flights, but looked like some sort of grey public service waiting room (as the pictures show). There was quite a good selection of self service drinks and snacks. But poor facilities for working as almost nowhere to plug the laptop 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 flig…

Iberia Economy versus BA Economy

Iberia Economy versus BA Economy

…eats online have worked out how to get the best seats with either huge leg room or the club style seat that is in the first row of economy. One thing had been thinking was that economy was not such a bad thing. That was until I returned from Barcelona on a code share flight that meant I was on an Iberia plane. (BA own part of Iberia and are trying to buy the whole thing). I am tall (6′ 2″) and the seats on Iberia are so close that my knees were ra…

Continental Airlines USA Review

Continental Airlines USA Review

…were much better than people had told me they would be. There was lots of room to stretch out. I am 6’2” and could not touch the seat in front of me. They had a great innovation where you can plug your normal plug in from your laptop and did not have to own or get all the fussy special adaptors you need on other airlines. The food was pretty standard airline fare, though you did get a choice of 3 main options for the breakfast (omelette, French t…

Friends Of Dorothy Meetings On-Board Cruise Ships. What Are They?

…he daily program as informal and un-hosted get togethers, and other than a room and time there is very little information about who these mysterious friends of Dorothy are, and why they are meeting up. So just who is Dorothy? And why does she have so many friends on-board that she has to have a special meeting advertised in the daily program? A “Friends of Dorothy Meeting” is a dated way of saying that gay travellers are invited to meet with other…
