Radisson Executive Lounge, Kathmandu Airport, Review
Priority Pass has access to some very unique and interesting experiences, but one of the stranger actual airport lounges is that Radisson Hotel Executive Lounge in the Kathmandu Airport. While there is a Radisson in town, this is the first time that I’ve seen a hotel sponsor an executive lounge. Even though this was a Priority Pass lounge, we were granted access by virtue of flying on Royal Nepal’s Shangri-La Class, and...
The Not So Secret way to Alaska Airlines First Class upgrades
Ever walk onto a plane and see all those people sitting in the first few rows of the airplane, sipping a pre departure drink, not burdened by uncomfortable seat cushions and wonder “How the hell did they get up here?” I know you have, because I hear it all the time when people walk by us to coach… “Hey Larry! Hey Larry! Look at these big comfy seats! Are these ours?” No Susan, you’re back in...

Nepal Airlines Review, Flight from KTM-DEL
There are three airlines that fly between Kathmandu and Delhi, one of which is Nepal Airlines. Some other day we could probably find a flight on Jet Airways and Air India, but having the opportunity to fly on Nepal’s flag carrier seemed like an opportunity we didn’t want to miss! Nepal Airlines only operates with a fleet of 10 aircraft, only two of which are A320’s which they...
London Air Traffic Control to move 80 miles away from Airport
When you fly into an airport, pretty much any airport in the world, you’ll see the control tower. Inside is, you guessed it, Air Traffic Control! But just outside of London’s downtown lies LCY, or London City airport. It was opened just over 30 years ago and handles about 4.5 million passengers each year, the majority looking for stress free access to London and the financial district. The control tower at London City is...
Uh Oh! Your hotel lost power. Now what?
Imagine that you get to your destination, check in, freshen up, and you’re lounging around your hotel room in your pajamas, relaxing before bed. All of a sudden the lights go out and power has been cut to the entire hotel. The phones don’t work and the light on your cell phone is your only way to find the exit. Welcome to our Salt Lake City experience. As we wrote about a short while back, the...
United Airlines Accused Father of Groping His Child, Faces Lawsuit AGAIN
United Airlines sure doesn’t know how to get itself OUT of trouble, but it sure does know how to find it. In another example of flight attendants overreaching, United Airlines has issued an apology after a flight attendant called the police onto a flight because he thought a father had his hands just a little “too close” to his sons genitals. Henry Amador-Batten and husband Joel were landing in Raleigh-Durham from a...
Double Miles on Aerolineas Argentinas’ Club Condor

This comes after the airline got pretty close to winning a few of the categories they were nominated for during the Freddie Awards. Any Aerolineas Plus members traveling between Buenos Aires and Miami or Buenos Aires and New York have the chance to get double the miles if they fly in Club Condor class –...

Athens British Airways Galleries Lounge – Hold it in!
In a surprise move to no one, the BA Galleries lounge in Athens airport closed last year. It kept going on a downward spiral very, very fast. In addition to old, dirty, jaded and flat out humiliating furniture for a major airline, things didn’t really improve from then on. But one of the more surprising things about this lounge isn’t the disgustingly bad furniture or the horrible service. In fact, its lack of one basic...
