Good morning from DPS just boarded my 1am flight to MNL onboard flight PH538 my first time flying Philippines Airlines. Lovely menu but I think I’ll try maximise sleep if at all possible.

Woke up to a lovely email from BA saying I had partner cards to share… which can only mean my latest flights have credited and I’m GGL status! Yay!
Time to do what BA accuse me of and rinse the lounge access for the next 13 months

If airlines expect pax to be more compliant with seatbelt signs they need to be more selective when the seatbelt sign comes on. I’m noticing a trend of extended seatbelt on sign in smooth conditions. This means no lavatory use or hot beverage service. And babies out of bassinets!

Good morning from KLIA1! After a good nights sleep at Ibis Styles Sepang, had a lovely laksa in the MH F Golden Lounge at Satellite terminal. Woke up to an alert from MH regarding delay so managed an extra hour in bed before heading to gate. Next stop DPS where I’ll be taking an extended break

I really don’t understand this requirement of confirmed onward bookings as entry requirements, particularly in south east Asia. It’s outdated and impractical. Indonesia is particularly a scam - the $35 visa fee is particularly annoying and doesn’t go to upgrading infrastructure just in the pockets

Going to put the OW lounge policy to the test at SIN. My reading is same day and before 6am departure but I have a 6am departure…. I assume I’ll get pushback at most lounges but will try anyway. Worst case QR should let me in at 12am and I have plenty card access lounges

Touchdown Singapore!
A quick sleep at an ibis budget was a dose of reality before heading to the Sheraton towers. Popped into Newtown market for a crispy oyster omelette for lunch that was ridiculously good!
Of course a couple of coffees to round off a perfect day

Excellent morning walk up Xiang Shan or Elephant Mountain for fantastic views of Taipei 101. Quite steep climb but worth it!

Taipei has been such a positive surprise! I wasn’t expecting much but I think I got very lucky staying in a great area with pedestrian streets and loads of food options.

Cool spot for the avgeeks - Okinawa. A terrace with loads of cafes and bars overlooking runway 36L which handles arrivals usually. There is also an Onsen overlooking the runway

After 2 nights in Tokyo I’m heading back to Okinawa today for my last night in Japan. A quick trip to the HND F domestic lounge before boarding. JAL domestic service is quite basic but efficient. Nice Fuji view on takeoff

Made good use of my stopover at SIN. Cleared immigration for a coffee at % Arabica before a quick shower and dinner at QF F, signature salt and pepper squid and an excellent laska. Sadly was rushing to finish and flight only got delayed as I left the lounge
