Last month I took a trip to Switzerland for a few days, and here is part one of my video trip report. I was supposed to fly Los Angeles to Washington Dulles to Geneva, but my LAX-IAD flight went mechanical so they ended up swapping out 777s and gave us one that was fully fueled…

Video: Boeing 747 Classic Cabin Schemes
Since I brought you a retro seat map of a 747 earlier this week, here is a pretty cool video from YouTube showcasing interiors from many vintage 747s. Even coach appeared comfortable back in the 1970s. The American Airlines aft lounge looks like it could be in use today as a Virgin Atlantic Upper Class…
Video: United Airlines Friends & Family Day at San Francisco Airport
This week’s video is another one by yours truly summarizing the United Airlines Friends & Family event at San Francisco Airport on October 10, 2010. United was gracious enough to invite some Flyertalkers to the event, and I flew up to enjoy the day. I missed out by minutes seeing the United 747 Golden Gate…
Review: Radisson Suites Hotel Buena Park, California
I blogged recently about my decision to stick with Radisson properties for the time being as my hotel loyalty program of choice, and I’ve been on the hunt for bonus point opportunities. Last month, I came across a rate at a fairly local Radisson Suites in Buena Park, California that included 10,000 bonus points, so…
Video: Lufthansa First Class trip report from Bangkok to Los Angeles via Frankfurt
I posted part one of my Lufthansa First Class experience last week, so here’s part two of my video trip report. While Lufthansa isn’t ranked quite as high as many of the Asian carriers in terms of inflight service, I had incredible crews on all of my flights and couldn’t have asked for more. Enjoy!
Video: Lufthansa First Class trip report from Los Angeles to Bangkok via Frankfurt
Instead of posting someone else’s video from YouTube this week, I’ll post one of my own. Here is part one of my video trip report from September this year, where I flew First Class from Los Angeles to Seattle to Frankfurt to Bangkok. I’ve heard good reviews of the Lufthansa soft product, and definitely wanted…
Video: First United Airlines 777 is repainted into the new livery
In my weekly review of airline-related videos posted to youtube, I came across a few today featuring the repaint of one of United’s Boeing 777s. At least they started with a battleship gray plane before defacing the more recent livery, the one I will fervently miss. Regardless, it is an interesting process to watch in…
Hilarious YouTube video about achieving airline elite status
I’ll occasionally search YouTube for recent airline and airport related videos, and came across this hilarious one today. If you’re a mileage runner or think mileage runners are absolutely nuts, then this video is for you! My only complaint about the video, though, is that the fare of $550 to earn 5248 miles is TERRIBLE!…
