I’ve had a bit of a tidy up around here this weekend and sorted out some of the link at the top of the blog. The two sections shown now contain all of my posts on Hyatt and British Airways, all in one easy location. Feel free to browse.
American Airlines – JFK to Los Angeles – First Class revisited
Some weeks ago I wrote about my disappointing experiences onboard American’s three class A321 transcontinental service. You can read about the two flights here and here. After a problem with being denied Flagship Check-in at JFK I went to the lounge before boarding. The gate was in the furthest part of the terminal from the…
Thinking of buying in the BA sale? Don’t until you’ve read this….
Europe to New York in Club World for £993, San Francisco for £1155 and Honolulu for £1313, this short fare sale is a great way to rack up BA Tier Points. Check out this post before you book the current BA Seat Sale from London. A short hop could save a lot.
Virgin matches BA Seat Sale
I wrote yesterday about BA’s premium cabin seat sale from London, and today Virgin has matched. But for now I wouldn’t book anything until details of the BA sale from Dublin become clearer.

Hilton JFK, another hotel to avoid ?
The noisy air-conditioning in the rooms at this property may make it another hotel at JFK to avoid for light sleepers. Have a quick look at the King and Queen rooms in this review based on two recent stays. Will there be any properties left I can stay at in JFK?
DAA Executive Lounge, Dublin, Terminal 1
There is little choice of lounge at Terminal 1 in Dublin, and so most airlines and memberships use the DAA Executive Lounge. You can see a list of which airlines provides access. There is a choice of food most of the day.
British Airways proactively cancelling flights today (21 Oct)
There are strong winds forecast for today in the UK and it appears that the National Air Traffic Services and Heathrow have asked airlines to reduce the number of flights today. So far it doesn’t look too bad, with flights to Dublin, Madrid, Aberdeen, Manchester, Brussels, Milan, Geneva, Edinburgh, Rome, Barcelona, Leeds/Bradford, Newcastle, Amsterdam and…
Hotel Review: Conrad, Dublin
The Conrad Dublin offered a EUR69 upgrade to a one bedroomed suite – too good a chance to miss. This review provides details of the room, their breakfast for HHonors members and room service. A property I recommend when in Dublin.
