Korean Air Business Class from Denpasar (DPS) to Seoul (ICN)
Airport Lounge in Bali and Business Class DPS to ICN We arrived to the airport via hotel shuttle which was our preferred mode of transit given the reliability and cost (around $11) at around 11:45pm and proceeded to the checkin counter for Prestige Class.

Sheraton Kuta, Bali (Wow, Wow, Wow!!)
Bali is a complex island, while being simple at the same time , when it comes to booking hotels. You can find hotels for $20 a night that come with full breakfast and comfortable rooms or you can spend $400 a night at a resort, where everything costs more, and you never leave the grounds and all your needs are taken care of.

Garuda Indonesia Business Class from Melbourne (MEL) to Denpasar, Bali (DPS)
In March of 2014, Garuda Indonesia became the 20th member of Skyteam, and with that opened up a large route network throughout Asia and Oceania for redemption using miles for all Delta SkyMiles members. Garuda went through a major rebranding and image revival in 2009/2010, improving their service, reputation, livery, crew, uniforms, and more, attempting to reinvent themselves as an airline and company. Despite that,...
Westin Melbourne and the Press Club
Melbourne. For me, the Seattle of Australia. Laid back coffee culture, hipsters, and amazing cuisine. Music and nightlife to boot make this a great city and one that needs time to be properly explored.

Playboy bunny flirts her way into becoming Aerolineas pilot for the day
Oh god, oh god, oh god. This is one for the books! Remember when we thought Nutgate was the craziest thing to happen onboard a plane? Well, that’s so passé. From the makers of ‘4 movies in stereo’ and ’12 channels with the most varied musical genders’, comes Trampghazi! As it turns out, “model” and “actress” Vicky Xipolitakis -some sort of Argentinian Kim K, if you will- was aboard...
Virgin Australia First Class from Cairns (CNS) to Melbourne (MEL)
Ben and I have a friend who lives in Melbourne, and while we could have flown a more direct routing to get to Denpasar, we wanted to make sure to go out of our way to see him, stay at the Westin to have our favourite hotel breakfast, and get a chance to sample Garuda Indonesia’s flight out of Melbourne. So this “trip” to Melbourne would only be about 19 hours total. Introduction Alaska Airlines First Class from...

Virgin Australia First Class from Brisbane (BNE) to Cairns (CNS)
Once we left the lounge it was just a quick 10 second walk to the gate, as it was the gate right in front of the lounge. When we walked out boarding had already commenced, so as good elite fliers and business class ticket holders, we pushed by everyone to get straight to the front 🙂 Introduction Alaska Airlines First Class from Seattle (SEA) to Los Angeles (LAX) Star Alliance Lounge Los Angeles Virgin Australia Business Class...
The World’s Most Experienced Airline – The Pan Am Experience
Just north of Burbank, CA in a sleepy little town called Pacoima stands Air Hollywood, a set full of airplane fuselages, cockpits, and one special hangar, the Pan Am Experience! For the uninitiated, Pan Am was born in 1927 and since its fall in 1991, it has grown to have a following of aficionados and airplane buffs who yearn for a time when airplane travel truly was glamorous and fancy. Air Hollywood started...
Cairns, the Great Barrier Reef, and Surrounding Areas
Cairns is a quaint little city in Far North Queensland, in the North East region of Australia. It should be noted that in the Southern Hemisphere, north means warm HOT. Being a mere 1000 miles south of the Equator makes it a very desirable tropical destination (if you’re into exotic animals, abundant flora and changing clothes 3 times a day). The city itself is not really a destination but rather a landing place for...
