Thompson Chicago Hotel Review
얼마전에 시카고에 잠시 다녀올 일이 있었는데요.
이번엔 현금으로 숙박하는것이라서 몇가지 대상의 호텔을 놓고서 비교를 해보게 되었습니다.
시카고에 갈때마다 항상 언젠간 가봐야지 생각만 하던 호텔이 있었는데요. 그 호텔이 오늘 보실 Thompson Chicago Hotel입니다.
수년간 하얏 글로벌리스트를 해오지만 아직까지 Thompson Hotel은 가본적이 없었고요. 마침 시카고 다운타운에 있는 이 호텔 옆에서 저녁식사 예약이 있어서, 편하게 가볼생각으로...

Hawaiian Airlines ICN-SEA (HA872) B787 Dreamliner First Class Review
SEA-ICN 구간에 무려 하와이안 항공이 보잉 787 드림라이너를 넣고서 다니기 시작했었는데요. 알라스카항공과 하와이안 항공사가 파트너라서 한동안 포인트 섞는다고 그 얘기도 한참 했기도 했었고요. 그 결과물로 알라스카항공 마일로 급기야 하와이안 항공 발권이라는 새로운 방법을 우리가 사용할 수 있게 되었습니다.
저도 부지런히 타보고 리뷰를 남긴다는 생각으로 발권 몇번(ㅋ)을 발권했다가, 더 좋을것 같은 비행편들이...

Delta Airlines A350-900 Economy Class DL27 (ATL-ICN) Review – 15시간 이코노미 탑승리뷰
오늘은 한국의 장례식에 가기위해 지난주에 급하게 다녀왔던 2인이 타고갔던 비행 탑승 리뷰입니다.
제목에서 보셨을것으로 생각하는데, 이번에는 15시간 직항 이코노미석에 앉아서 아틀란타-인천 비행을 했습니다. 이번 비행의 요건중에 우선순위가 촉박한 시간안에 한국에 가는것이라서, 다른 방법이 없었다고나 할까요?
2017년에 밀라노에서 마이애미까지 오는 9시간 이코노미석을 마지막으로 거의 10년만에 장거리 이코노미석을 타 봤습니다.
