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.

In the small town of Kingman, we left Interstate 40 to follow Route 66. For the first few miles, a gigantic freight train ran parallel to the road.
