This morning we arrived at the Legaspi airport after a wonderful weekend of whale shark spotting and firefly watching.

Upon checking the airport was a zoo because the 8am flight by air Philippines had taken off but the Cebu Pacific 9:10 flight  was canceled because the  aircraft couldn't land in the rain! I laughed at this for what airline couldn't land in a little bit of rain?

Flying domestically in the Philippines provides you with quick and fast transport to thousands of tropical destinations across 7000 islands.

Even though I was in economy class, the weekend made me realize that a lot is missing on United/Continental.

First, I had all ...

From the Air New Zealand Koru Club in Sydney, we boarded our V Australia flight to Los Angeles. 

The 777-300ER taking us to LAX

 

We flew this service on the outbound from LAX to SYD in VA Business, so we were familiar with what to expect, although this time my wife and I were flying together, so it makes for a bit more pleasant experience for the long flight.  This flight typical of ...

Foul weather and a delayed Continental Airlines flight gave me the opportunity to sample US Airways yesterday from Philadelphia to Los Angeles. While I won't be defecting to US Airways anytime soon, the experience wasn't half-bad.

The flight was operated by a brand-spanking-new A321 and featured gogo wi-fi internet onboard. The all-leather seats were fairly comfortable and the aircraft was immaculate inside. As a traveler who generally sticks to airlines that do not offer internet ...
