    Vietnam Airlines Business Class Singapore to London Heathrow Dreamliner Return

    We fly Vietnam Airlines (SkyTeam Alliance), Singapore to London Heathrow and return. Excited! This was the first time the entire family was flying together in a premium cabin, to anywhere. So, let's get started. From a cost point of view, this trip was made possible because Vietnam Airlines...

    Singapore Airlines Business Singapore to Wellington New Zealand Flight Report

    The lounge wasn't too crowded that evening. Plenty of space to chill before the flight and I managed to catch up with some reading and emails too. Soon, it was time to board. The airport was small (we were at the international departures) and it was only a short walk to the gate (3 minutes)...

    Singapore Airlines Business Singapore to Wellington New Zealand Flight Report

    haha, that's funny. There were too many to count! The sheep dogs were very hardworking though. I could see them rounding up the sheep. Really, the sheep looked very silly, just follow one another. Some of the sheep went out of line and the sheep dog had to get them back. Reminds me of the...

    Singapore Airlines Business Singapore to Wellington New Zealand Flight Report

    The Intercontinental hotel was located in a very central location, and it was only a short walk to the civic center. This video shows you some scenes. Bright and sunny, with people relaxing. Very cool. Some coverage of the food I had. In this video, I dined at an upmarket restaurant called...

    Singapore Airlines Business Singapore to Wellington New Zealand Flight Report

    Before I post the videos of my flight back, let me post some of the videos I made when I was in New Zealand. New Zealand is a beautiful country, though rather far away from most of the world. While in Wellington, I stayed at the Intercontinental, which was a very nice hotel. Here is a video...

    Singapore Airlines Business Singapore to Wellington New Zealand Flight Report

    My flight from Singapore to Canberra was FULL in Business class. Yes, full. I heard it was packed in Economy too. However, the load from Canberra to Wellington was very light, I think only about 30% in Business class. I asked the cabin crew and they told me the Wellington-Canberra leg is...

    Vietnam Airlines Singapore to Hanoi JW Marriott Hanoi

    We arrived at the hotel and were quickly ushered up to level 6, which was the floor of the Executive club. Yes, we booked a Club room. They allowed us to squeeze 4 into a room, so why not. Check in was very quick, and they were very nice to waive the 3rd person charge completely when they...

    Vietnam Airlines Singapore to Hanoi JW Marriott Hanoi

    Landed in Hanoi safely, into their relatively new Terminal 2 (which is for international flights). Immigration was quite smooth - there was a line but it cleared fast enough. This short video snippet at the baggage claim. Hanoi is one hour behind Singapore, so you can see the time was 1848hrs...

    Vietnam Airlines Singapore to Hanoi JW Marriott Hanoi

    Brought the family for a quick getaway recently, and we chose to go to Hanoi for a quick getaway. This was our first time in Hanoi. No idea what to expect. The return flight to Hanoi on Vietnam Airlines looked reasonable (less than $1,000 for the four of us, so why not. Let's do something...

    Turkish Airlines Singapore to Europe and Back Economy Class

    Soon, it was time to head to the gate. This video shows you some footage of the walk to Gate 228A where Turkish Airlines Flight TK 54 would depart. Now, when I googled Gate 228A, I couldn't find it! It looked as if there were no gates beyond 226 based on the map of the airport, at the...

    Turkish Airlines Singapore to Europe and Back Economy Class

    Soon it was time for our flight. Hanging around in the Gatwick restricted area wasn't too bad. We quickly found our way to the gates for the London Gatwick to Istanbul service on Turkish Airways. I think they fly thrice a day, and ours was the third flight of the day, flight TK1998. It was a...

    Turkish Airlines Singapore to Europe and Back Economy Class

    Alright, after that distraction, it was back to air travel. First, we had to get ourselves to London Gatwick. At first, we thought of the Gatwick Express, but after some research realised that there were cheaper options that cost much less and took just as fast. So here is the thing - the...

    Turkish Airlines Singapore to Europe and Back Economy Class

    We spent some days in London, just chilling out and having fun. Some random videos of our time in London before I resume the Turkish flight back to Singapore. Foyles Bookshop, a very beautiful bookshop in London. Enjoyed browsing. Frankly, I don't know how long such bookstores will survive...

    Turkish Airlines Singapore to Europe and Back Economy Class

    Ok, back to the flight reviews. When we disembarked from the cruise ship in Copenhagen, we immediately made our way from the cruise port to the airport for a flight from Copenhagen to London. Copenhagen airport was pretty nice, but we almost missed our flight because they put their passport...

    Turkish Airlines Singapore to Europe and Back Economy Class

    We didn't really spent a lot of time in Copenhagen. The objective of going there was to board a cruise ship for a cruise to the Baltic seas. The hotel we stayed in was called Hotel Bethel, a 2-star hotel at River Nyhavn - basic but clean and one of the least expensive options we could find...

    Turkish Airlines Singapore to Europe and Back Economy Class

    Our flight was TK55 and departed at 2200hrs from Changi Terminal 1. The plane was almost full, with a good number of passengers from Singapore, including some aunties (if you watch the video, you can hear some of their voices during boarding, exclaiming that 2-4-2 is good). What is 2-4-2...

    Turkish Airlines Singapore to Europe and Back Economy Class

    On a recent family holiday to Europe, my family flew to Copenhagen via Istanbul and subsequently we flew London Gatwick back to Singapore on Turkish Airlines Economy class. Overall, it was a good experience. A few weeks after we came back home, the horrific attack at the Istanbul Airport...
