Air Canada Business Class Boeing 777-300ER to London – Review with seat recommendation, service and food

Thanks to a lucky error fare, we flew Air Canada Business Class on a Boeing 777-300ER from Toronto to London Heathrow in January 2017. After our last flight in the older Air Canada A330 Business Class, I was particularly curious to see how the newer cabin compared. Even during boarding, I noticed that everything seemed more modern, tidy, and of higher quality. Whether the new Executive Pod seats were truly as comfortable as Air Canada promised would be revealed that night.

Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) is home to three of these, one serving domestic gates, one serving transborder (i.e. flights to the US) and one serving international gates.

Air Canada Business Class in an Embraer ERJ-190 to Toronto

Unlike many European airlines, Air Canada offers a true business class on short- and medium-haul routes – with wider seats, more comfort, and consistently premium service. In early 2017, we flew from Seattle to Toronto and had plenty of time to relax and enjoy the flight to the fullest on board Air Canada Business Class in the Embraer ERJ-190.

United Club Seattle

United Airlines lounges haven't exactly been known for their amenities and food and beverage offerings in the past. However, since the introduction of the new "Polaris" Business Class, United Clubs have been renovated and their service improved. The United Club Seattle was one of the first lounges to be redesigned. You can read more about our January 2017 stay in our review.

Lufthansa Senator Lounge A-Gates Frankfurt

We often spend our waiting time in the Lufthansa Senator Lounge A-Gates Frankfurt. The lounge is very busy, especially during the week, so we have never managed to take photos for a review until now. When we returned from Barcelona on a Saturday evening, we were almost the only guests, so I took the opportunity to have a closer look around.

Planespotting at the Boeing factory in Everett

For years, a trip to Everett has been one of our highlights when traveling in Seattle. Just about 50 kilometers north of the city lies the massive Boeing factory right next to Paine Field Airport – a must-see for all aircraft fans. Giants like the Boeing 747, 767, 777, and 787 are manufactured here. And it was here in January 2017 that we spent an exciting day among the factory halls, runways, and all sorts of aircraft action.

Business Lounge at Katowice Airport

Katowice Airport is Poland's third-largest airport in terms of passengers. Lufthansa currently offers a total of 21 flights per week. This means the number of passengers is too small for a dedicated airport lounge, so passengers use the contract lounge in Terminal B. Find out in our review that a visit to the Business Lounge at Katowice Airport is still worthwhile.

Lufthansa Business Lounge Leipzig/Halle

Currently, the Lufthansa Group airlines fly 75 times a week from Leipzig/Halle Airport to destinations in Germany and Europe. Therefore, it's only natural that there is also a Lufthansa Business Lounge at Leipzig/Halle Airport. I visited it on my way to Frankfurt and would like to briefly introduce it in a lounge review.

Hilton Vienna Park

We were looking for a hotel in a central location for our weekend trip to Vienna. There was plenty to choose from, as the Hilton Group alone has four hotels in its portfolio. As we had already stayed at the Hilton Vienna Danube Waterfront a few years ago, this time we opted for the Hilton Vienna Park. You can find out whether it was a good choice and how our biggest room upgrade to date turned out in this hotel review.

Lufthansa Business Class in the Airbus A320-200 to Munich

We tested the new Europa cabin on our flight from Oslo to Munich and discovered both its strengths and weaknesses. In this review, you'll find out whether an upgrade is worth it and what you can actually expect on board.
