First look: JetBlue's new Mint business class suites
Feb 03, 2021, 03:28 PMHate, hate, hate, hate these herringbone seats and the massage and chiro bills they trigger after I've tried for hours to see out the window rather than stare at a screen.

First look: JetBlue's new Mint business class suites
Feb 03, 2021, 03:26 PMLast time I looked MEL-SIN on QF and SQ was always pretty heavily loaded on 330, 350 and 380. Post-CoVID might change that but I can't imagine 320XLR being suitable for that route.

Here is Singapore Airlines' new business class amenity kit
Oct 07, 2020, 02:58 PMWho needs it? I wish they’d spend the money on some decent mattress pads a la ANA so I can get a decent sleep. And if they have to do it Penhaligon? Really?

Australian border closure likely to remain until 2021
Aug 18, 2020, 08:19 PMOf course the meningococcal vaccine was given in a vaccination dose, but it was given whether people had already had it or not, since it was there only to keep the trial blind. This from the trial protocol: Volunteers enrolled into the control groups will receive 1 doses of MenACWY, a licens...

Australian border closure likely to remain until 2021
Aug 18, 2020, 07:46 PMIt's easy to mock the Russians but they still have some of the best scientists in the world, and they are not much constrained by the ethical and reporting requirements which apply in other industrialized societies. My own view is that any mass immunization with a new SARS CoV 2 vaccine in Russia...

Getting from JFK to Washington
Jul 05, 2019, 05:20 PMWill you do US immigration at JFK? Look, personally, I would never tote 40 kilos of luggage from JFK to LGA. Even without bags, that trip is hard work with more hard work negotiating LGA and its constant delays and cancelations. The easiest way is to hop a DCA flight from JFK unless you’re ...

Which aircraft is best for an overnight flight: Airbus A330, A350, Boeing 777...
Jun 26, 2019, 05:07 PMA350. No contest. Very quiet in the pointy end. Great aircraft which leaves every other wide body in the exhaust of its RR Trents.

Business class: Qantas Airbus A80 vs United Boeing 787-9
Jun 21, 2019, 04:19 PMSkybed II on A380 is rubbish. I haven’t had one that doesn’t need Viagra to prevent sagging and/or doesn’t malfunction. So uncomfortable. Lousy IFE technology. Food not bad, service very unpredictable. A380 always better to fly than any other equipment except A350 and 747-800. U...

Singapore Airlines Boeing 777-300ER Seating advice
May 29, 2019, 03:18 PM12a is a great seat on the SQ 77W. I use it all the time. 11a has much better space for feet but these days it’s blocked out until shortly before departure.
