Jetstar Asia Economy Class Airbus A320-200 to Singapore
Nach dem Check-out im DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Kuala Lumpur fuhren wir mit dem LRT und dem KLIA Express zum internationalen Flughafen. Die Fahrt dauerte insgesamt eine Stunde, mit einer kurzen Wartezeit am KL Sentral. Nach Singapur flogen wir mit einer für mich neuen Airline – Jetstar Asia Economy Class.
Malaysia Airlines Economy Class Boeing 737-800 to Kuala Lumpur
Langkawi Airport is a typical small tourist airport. The routes are short, and the lines, at least on this Saturday, weren't long either. We flew to Kuala Lumpur on a Malaysia Airlines Economy Class Boeing 737-800.
AirAsia Economy Class Airbus A320-200 to Langkawi
The hotel's own shuttle bus took us from the Grand Mercure Roxy to Terminal 1 of Singapore Changi International Airport without any traffic jams or delays. From there, we travelled to Langkawi on an AirAsia Economy Class Airbus A320-200.
SWISS Economy Class Airbus A340-300 to Singapore
The plan was for us to land in Zurich at 4.30 pm, coming from Berlin. Due to the strong hurricane Niklas, we arrived three hours later. From Gate A81 we walked to the SWISS Senator Lounge before boarding the SWISS Economy Class Airbus A340-300 to Singapore.
SWISS Airbus A320-200 Economy Class, Berlin to Zurich
Unsere Reise nach Singapur begannen wir mit einer Bahnfahrt von Halle (Saale) nach Berlin. Die Fahrzeit beträgt mit dem ICE gerade einmal 1:16 Stunde, wobei man fairerweise sagen muss, das hierzu noch der Bus (Linie TXL) vom Berliner Hauptbahnhof zum Flughafen Tegel hinzukommt. Unter dem Strich waren wir genauso schnell wie mit dem Auto, aber […]

Lounge reviews
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.
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.
Air Canada Maple Leaf Lounge Toronto Transborder
Air Canada betreibt am Flughafen Toronto-Pearson (YYZ) insgesamt drei Flughafenlounges – jeweils eine für internationale, für nationale Ziele und für Flüge in die USA. Auf unseren Weg nach Seattle besuchten wir die Air Canada Maple Leaf Lounge Toronto Transborder. Wie wir die Zeit dort verbrachten und was die Lounge alles zu bieten hatte, erfährst du im Review.
Lufthansa Senator Lounge Nuremberg
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.

Destinations
Beaches of Langkawi
Langkawi has several beaches, mainly located in the south, west, and north of the island. Although many hotels are located right up to the beach, by law, every beach is public. In the following article, we'll show you the most beautiful beaches on Langkawi.
The best food on Langkawi
Kulinarisch hat Langkawi so einiges zu bieten. Von national malaysischen Speisen, über internationale Gerichte, bis hin zu den typischen Fast-Food Ketten, wie McDonalds, Subway, Starbucks und KFC, findet man hier alles. Uns führte der Hunger jeden Abend nach Cenang, weil der Weg einfach am kürzesten war. Indian Palace (Cenang, Langkawi) Das Indian Palace liegt direkt […]
Langkawi: Gunung Raya
Eigentlich nur aufgrund eines Geocaches vom Typ „Earthcache“ fuhren wir auf den 890 m hohen Gunung Raya. Der Gunung Raya ist der höchste Berg auf der malaysischen Insel Langkawi. Schon der 20 Minuten lange Serpentinen-Weg hinauf bot allerlei Attraktionen am Straßenrand: Kühe, Affen, Leguane und dazu der tiefgrüne Dschungel links und rechts. Wirklich toll!
Panorama Langkawi: Cable Car and Sky Bridge
Panorama Langkawi, or Langkawi Sky Cab, has been the island's tourist highlight since its opening in 2002. A 2-kilometer-long cable car takes you to lofty heights on Mount Machinchang. The view from Machinchang Mountain is unique. On a clear day, you can see several kilometers of untouched nature.
Langkawi: Cenang and Kuah
Bei unseren Fahrten über die kleine Insel Langkawi kamen wir hauptsächlich nur durch Siedlungen und Dörfer. Die einzig beiden größeren Städte sind Cenang und Kuah. Kuah – Hauptstadt Langkawis Einkaufsparadies Langkawi – Duty-free Zone Im Südosten der Insel liegt Kuah, die Hauptstadt Langkawis. Kuah bedeutet auf malaiisch „steinig“ und eine Legende besagt, dass sich die Stadt, […]
