REVIEW – Cathay Pacific : Business – Sydney to Hong Kong (A330 Longhaul Config)

My seat was in the first row of the mini-cabin (19A), which could have meant extra noise from the galley. I had a feeling this wouldn't be a problem on CX, an airline renowned for the quality of the in flight service (I was right). The benefit is that you get an extra large foot cubby!

REVIEW – Cathay Pacific : The Wing Business Class Lounge, Hong Kong

I really like the decor here, the black marble, wood and bamboo complement each other nicely. I'm also a fan of the large open kitchen. After placing our order we were given a buzzer which lit up within a couple of minutes, indicating that our food was ready.

REVIEW – Qantas Lounge, Hong Kong Airport

In future, I think I'll skip the F lounge in the Wing. If you catch it at the right time of day, the F&B and service are leagues ahead here. I was actually a little sad to leave. Although the sadness soon passed and was replaced by excitement to once again find myself sat in the nose of a 747. There are few places I'd rather be. My friends joke that my favourite place on Earth is not on Earth but 34,000 feet above it in a steel tube. Perhaps this says something about me, although I dare say there are a fair few of you reading, who share a similar preference!

REVIEW – Virgin Atlantic Clubhouse: Tokyo Narita

Overall this is a cool, small lounge. The place is very design and service focused, which you'd expect given that these are the two hallmarks of the VS experience. Next time I would show up a little earlier to enjoy a peaceful boarding process. This is not a lounge where you would want to arrive three hours early tough as the space is limited and the place can get very crowded in the lead up to the LHR flight.
