New Route 비지니스 어워드 발권: SEA-ICN B787-9 Biz on Hawaiian Airlines (using Alaska Airlines Mile)
그동안 없던 새로 생기는 루트의 어워드 발권방법이 떠올라서 해 봤는데요. 몇가지 장단점을 동시에 가지고 있는 발권인듯 하고요. 실제 이 방법을 이용하는 사람의 거주지와 적립마일을 이정도 사용할 수 있는가에 대한 호불호가 좀 있을것 같습니다.
올해 10월말에 와이프가 탑승하는 일정 비지니스석을 찾다가 문득 '이렇게 해보면 어떨까?' 해서 해 본것인데요. 실제 탑승까지 남은기간동안에 별다른것이...

ANA HONU A380-800 First Class (NRT-HNL) 발권 후기 – Virgin Atlantic 57,500마일 + $220
지난번 게시판에서 보셨던 ANA 일등석 타는날 게시글 댓글중에, 제가 티켓 오픈시간까지 찾아가면서 내년 4월말에 ANA 일등석 항공권을 하나 더 해놓은것을 말씀 드렸었는데요. 그때 4월 29일 탑승하는 발권을 하고나서 봤더니 그때가 하필이면 일본의 Golden Week 인거예요. 골든위크에는 여행하는 사람들이 너무 많아서, 각종 식당을 포함해서 가는곳마다 사람들이 너무 많습니다. (올해 그때에 갔더니...

일본 여행기 2025 – 신오사카-도쿄 신칸센 이동 정보, 맛집 정보 포함
지난 한국/일본 방문중에 미국으로 오기전에 일본에서 이동했던 내용을 여행기로 남겨봅니다.
원래 나고야에서 나리타를 거쳐서 보스턴으로 오려던 일정이라서, 일본 입국을 오사카로 했었습니다. 결국에는 나중에 발권했던 ANA 일등석을 타기위해서 도쿄로 이동했어야 했는데요. 그 이유로 일정을 모두 바꾸면서, 신 오사카역 주변에서 1박, 도쿄에서 1박하는 일정이 되어버렸습니다.
오늘 포스팅에서는 오사카 간사이공항(KIX) 부터 신 오사카역을 거쳐서 도쿄역까지...

ANA First Class B777-300ER (HND-ORD) 2025 Review
오늘은 이번달 초에 하네다에서 시카고로 타봤던 ANA B777-300ER 일등석 탑승리뷰를 가지고 왔습니다.
5월초에 한국을 갔다가 일본을 거쳐서 오는 일정으로 원래는 JAL Biz 티켓들을 AS에서 발권해놓고 가지고 있었는데요. 탑승 3주전에 이 티켓이 풀린것을 운이 좋게 잡을수 있었습니다.
ANA 일등석은 2018년, 2022년 이후에 세번째 탑승이고, 시카고로 들어오는 두번째 비행기에, 하네다 출발 두번째 비행입니다.
