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.
Thanks to an error fare, we flew Air Canada Business Class on an Airbus A330-300 from Munich to Toronto. Despite complications during boarding and an outdated Business Class seat, Air Canada still managed to impress us with its service and the quality of the food. You can find out how satisfied we were overall in this trip report.
A flight in Lufthansa Business Class sounds like comfort, first-class service, and a touch of luxury. But how good is the product really on short-haul flights in the Airbus A320? 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.
It's no secret that Scandinavia often offers unbeatable flight deals. Thanks to an amazing pricing error, we were lucky enough to snag business class tickets for our flight to Seattle. Since a timely arrival in Oslo was essential, we decided to spend a night at the Park Inn by Radisson Oslo Airport (Gardermoen). In this hotel review, we share our experience with this first-class airport hotel.
The Lufthansa Senator Lounge at Nuremberg Airport was renovated just in fall 2016. The combined Senator and Business Lounge now features the Group-wide design and offers 350 square meters of space for relaxation and work. Find out whether a visit is really worth it in our lounge review.
In July 2016, I was lucky enough to be on the maiden flight of Singapore Airlines' Airbus A350-900 from Düsseldorf. I have already written a detailed article about this. In this review, I would like to tell you what the return flight in the Singapore Airlines Business Class Airbus A350-900 from Singapore to Düsseldorf was like. There is also a brief insight into the First and Business Class SilverKris Lounge at Singapore Airport.
The SWISS Lounge at Chicago O'Hare Airport was newly renovated in 2011. Access is available to HON Circle members, Miles & More Senators, Star Alliance Gold members, Miles & More Frequent Travelers, and First and Business Class passengers. Find out whether the trip to the lounge is worth it in this review.
We definitely wanted to make a stopover on our way to the Swiss Alps. As I had worked in Nuremberg for nine months during my studies, it made sense to visit the city again. Surprisingly, I found the Hilton Nuremberg at a very favourable price. You can find out what our impressions of the hotel were in this report.
Once you have frequent flyer status, you want to defend it every year. I have had Star Alliance Gold status with the Greek airline Aegean Airlines for almost five years now. As we hardly travelled by plane this year due to the birth of our son in January, we had to do a mileage run to extend our status.
The Aegean Business Lounge Thessaloniki is located at the end of the departure gates at Thessaloniki Airport, after passing through security. One of the biggest advantages is direct boarding from the lounge for any flight within the Schengen area. I think the design is extremely successful. The interior designer was inspired by a film set when selecting the furniture.
The Lufthansa Group flies more than 20 times a day from Leipzig/Halle Airport to destinations in Germany and Europe. It's only fitting, then, that there's also a Lufthansa Senator Lounge in Leipzig/Halle. On my way to Munich, I found it completely renovated and would like to briefly introduce it in this lounge review.
An aircraft must be evacuated within 90 seconds. To ensure they can respond correctly and quickly in an emergency, airlines regularly train their personnel. But evacuation via the emergency slide of an Airbus A380 isn't the only part of the training schedule; makeup and service also need to be perfected. At the Singapore Airlines Training Center, I was able to get a glimpse behind the scenes.
We are passionate snowboarders and have often explored the Alps in winter. But this time we wanted to experience the region in summer. The Alps offer a wealth of exclusive hotels in Austria and Switzerland, but chain hotels are few and far between. Our choice fell on the Hilton Garden Inn Davos, and in this hotel review we share our experiences and impressions with you.
The Southeast Asian city-state of Singapore wants to become the greenest metropolis in the world. The Gardens by the Bay park, which opened in 2012, impressively demonstrates that this interplay of skyscrapers and nature is a success.
