Tips, Tricks, and Travel with Lucky
Ah, the joys of travel when the weather gets bad and air traffic control delays kick in. After a perfectly relaxing Cathay Pacific flight, we go to the American Airlines counter to re-check our bag. While I realized there were some weather issues in New York, I didn’t realize so many flights were canceled. While [...]

Hello from “The Wing” at HKG. I’m about to board my Cathay Pacific flight to San Francisco, and am then continuing onwards to New York. Looks like the weather in New York might result in a bit of fun. Flights are zeroed out. Stay tuned for more tomorrow, and of course the trip report in [...]

I’m already sad to leave. It has been a fun few days so far, but I know I’ll be back soon.
A full report is on the way (of course), but in the meantime, here are a few pictures.

I tend to plan “exotic” international trips with a decent bit of advance notice because anticipation is often the best part of vacations. Well, not this time. My brother and I will be heading to Bali in Cathay Pacific first class next week. Tough life, right?
You’re probably wondering why we waited so long to book. I knew our spring [...]

This past weekend I had the opportunity to once again fly with the incredible Captain Denny Flanagan. Flying with him just never gets old. What I enjoy most about being on his flights are the reactions of unsuspecting passengers. The more often I fly with him, the more I start to appreciate the reactions of people.
Let’s face [...]

Regardless of whether or not it’s a special occasion, I do my best to take good care of airline employees. After all, they almost always take good care of me. They work hard, are underpaid (well, mostly), and are some of the most interesting people out there. I do my best to bring a few [...]

I was hoping to have some exciting stories about having scored $600 in travel credits this evening, but unfortunately there was no such luck. Instead I flew coach for the first time this year — voluntarily! As ridiculous as it might sound, I wanted to fly coach. There was upgrade space and I had upgrade [...]

Well, my flight to Washington (which was zeroed out, coincidentally) was canceled, leaving me on the west coast. United “protected” me on a US Airways flight. Without inserting any jokes, let’s just say that I don’t consider being rebooked on US Airways to be much in the way of protection!
