Hello & Welcome to my travel blog,
 

Does Norse Atlantic Airways Check Bag Size? Yes, they do and they don’t mess around. Norse Atlantic Airways is serious about luggage compliance, especially if you're on an Economy Light fare. On my last trip, even my trusty little Cabin Max backpack got the full VIP treatment at check-in: weighed, measured, and lovingly shoved into the sizer (yes, the metal doom cage of airline luggage). If your bag doesn’t fit their requirements, you’ll likely be charged to check it in.

Let’s not pretend. easyJet has been the chaotic neutral of the skies for years now. Sometimes they’re brilliant – like that one time I got from Gatwick to Milan for £17 and they didn’t even charge me to breathe onboard. Sometimes they’re less than brilliant – like that other time when my “priority boarding” line was longer than the queue for Wimbledon tickets.

Embarking on a journey from London Gatwick to the sun-kissed shores of Ibiza aboard British Airways Euroflyer, I found myself amidst a blend of budget-friendly travel and the classic BA charm. Here's an in-depth look at my experience on flight BA2682.

Let’s be honest – airport terminals these days can be a bit of challenge to get thru, security lanes, constant rule changes, stressing about your bags size, delays, Screaming kids, £7 bottles of water. So last year, I finally did what any self-respecting frequent flyer should: I got myself a Priority Pass.

Let’s be honest, navigating Heathrow can feel like a marathon. Whether it’s long check-in lines, chaotic security checks, or trying to find a seat in the terminals hustle and bustle, it can all get a bit much. That’s where the Plaza Premium Lounge at Heathrow Terminal 5 comes in.

If you’ve ever found yourself rushing through Heathrow Airport, wishing for a quiet escape from the chaos, then the Club Aspire Lounge at Heathrow Terminal 5 might be just what you need. But, is it worth the cost? And is there a better way to access this lounge without breaking the bank? n this review, I’ll take you through my experience with the Club Aspire Lounge, share the details about the lounge’s features, and show you how you can get access with Priority Pass and e

If you’ve ever stood around at London Heathrow Terminal 2 watching your flight delay stretch longer than your patience and thought, “Is there somewhere I can escape all this chaos?”, then welcome to the club. And welcome to this review. I recently visited the Plaza Premium Lounge at Terminal 2, London Heathrow. It’s genuinely beautiful inside, impressively styled, and promises an escape from the terminal madness. But let’s be honest, airport lounges aren’t all created equal.

Big news for Aussie travellers and Singapore stopover fans: From 5 October 2025, low-cost carrier Scoot will boost its Sydney–Singapore route to double daily flights, up from the current ten services per week.

It’s rare for me to walk into a lounge and feel immediate regret. But stepping into the SATS Premier Lounge at Singapore Changi Airport Terminal 2 felt like walking straight back into my old school exam hall, it could be the name though? SATS. And not in a nostalgic way. I’m talking that grey institutional gloom, the buzz of fluorescent lighting, uncomfortable seating, people hunched over in various states of stress, and the loud chatter that’s anything but soothing.

Singapore Changi Airport isn't just a transit point; it's a destination in itself. Consistently ranked among the top airports globally, Changi offers a seamless blend of efficiency, comfort, and entertainment that transforms the travel experience.​

If you’ve ever landed at Malpensa Airport after a long-haul journey like mine – SIN-AUH-MILAN, followed by a trek to Stansted and onward to Surrey – you’ll know the difference a decent lounge can make. This time, I tested out the Via Milano Lounge at MXP Airport, armed with both Priority Pass and LoungeKey(because yes, I carry them all like Pokémon cards). What did I find? A lounge with good intentions and some great Italian touches, but not without its flaws.
