Travel blog for families & couples – airline, hotel & lounge reviews
Welcome to miles-around, the German-language travel blog for couples and families! We share first-hand experiences from flights in First Class, Business Class, Premium Economy and Economy Class – with airlines like Turkish Airlines, Condor and SWISS – reviewing cabins on short- and long-haul routes. We also feature over 50 lounge reviews from around the world, from Priority Pass lounges to exclusive airline lounges at airports like Frankfurt, Istanbul and Singapore. Our hotel reviews cover everything from four-star city hotels to five-star luxury resorts, always based on personal stays rather than press material. We have explored destinations like Singapore, Thailand, Mexico, the USA and Egypt ourselves, sharing what truly matters – whether travelling as a family, as a couple or on business.

Our first night was already over by 5:30 a.m. That's what happens when you fall into bed exhausted shortly after 9 p.m. I was already used to the poor breakfasts at motels in the USA. Accordingly, I wasn't expecting much, so I was even surprised to find fresh bananas and apples in the meager buffet. […]
