London to Athens, British Airways A321 (old BMI)
Many many moons ago there was this great little airline called British Midland, International, aka BMI. When I think of BMI, it’s usually Body Mass Index, so when I heard there was an airline called BMI, I steered away. Apparently so did most people because it was absorbed by British Airways a few years back. They did have a few really cool planes however, including a few A321 aircraft with a very interesting configuration. Usually...
DEAL: Business Class sale to China from West Coast
It seems that good business class deals are getting less and less common, so when we do find a good deal, we like to post about it as often as we can. That’s why a couple of days ago we posted about the British Airways Companion Fare Sale, in the hopes that some of you would be able to find some discounted tickets around the holidays. As the year comes to an end, mileage running for status, or just to earn some extra miles, is...

British Airways offers a Companion Sale
British Airways is one of my favorite airlines to fly and earn miles. They often run sales on business class tickets or offer other options to head to Europe. and they’ve got one of the largest route networks in the USA for a foreign carrier. It’s safe to say that British Airways probably serves your hub city if you leave near a major US metro. They also offer some pretty fun sales. Last year there was a “$2,016 sale...
Alaska Airlines introduces Scan and Fly
If you have ever impatiently waited in line to check your bags at the airport, then this will be great news for you. We usually don’t have to wait in line at all when checking in at SEA (or any other airport, really) thanks to our MVP Gold 75K status with Alaska Airlines, but for everyone who doesn’t have any status, this could be a really good improvement. Alaska Airlines just announced they will be conducting a pilot...

Quick Lounge Visit, Galleries Lounge, London Heathrow
We only had about a 90 minute layover total, so we had to make a quick connection in Heathrow. If you’ve ever visited Heathrow, you’ll know that “quick” and “connection” aren’t two words you usually hear about Heathrow. The Galleries Lounge in the B section of Terminal 5 is located right near the B42 gate by going up an escalator. It’s open, like most oneworld lounges, to business and first passengers, and Sapphire/Emerald one world...
FLASH SALE: North America to Australia, $702+
Usually we post about fares in Business Class, but sometimes the coach deals are really too good to pass up. Thanks to the falling Canadian dollar against the US dollar, flights departing Canada right now are an awesome deal for us here in the USA. Don’t live in Canada? Don’t worry! There are tons of ways to get to Canada for not a lot of money, especially if you have access to British Avios 🙂 Flights From Vancouver,...
