My flight to JFK left from Gate 46B in the heart of the T4 bubble at the end of the pier.  I was treated to the Concierge Key treatment at the gate when a petite Asian woman held a tablet up with my name on it.  She told me I could pre-board ahead of group […]

I woke just before the alarm at 4am, so another 3.5 hours kip which I was impressed with.  I had a shower and dropped my key in the drop box in the following 20 mins.  I concluded that ordering an Uber to take me to the airport was the best thing to do.  The BART […]

Into the lounge and AA were obviously continuing with some renovations; this time the other side of the Flagship Lounge was closed. [In my last TP Run (to Hawaii) the other half of the lounge was closed] My flight to San Francisco was due to leave from Gate 159 in TBIT – the incoming flight […]

It was seriously cold at JFK when I left T7 and headed to the Sky Train.  It was also eerily quiet, as if there had been an announcement that the airport would be closed today, so no one had turned up. I just missed an Air Train that would have taken me to T8 but […]

Preparations Managed to sneak this trip in during Jan.  It was originally a June booking that was impacted by flight cancellations, so at the start of Jan I decided to take advantage of my ability to rebook my trip avoiding all of the original restrictions: as long as there is flight availability.  That allowed me […]

I’ve enjoyed my first significant trip in over 18 months: Using Verifly to manage all of the covid-related requirements worked really smoothly and airlines were happy to review the app during check in. Wearing masks all through my flights was a real chore. I experienced the new BA Club World suite for the first time […]
