Flying across continents often exposes an airline’s true DNA, how it handles long-haul fatigue, logistics, culture, and service. I’ve flown with nearly every major African carrier and dozens of international competitors. Ethiopian Airlines stands out, not just in Africa, but globally. It’s a case study in transformation, and this review answers a direct question I … Read more
I’ve flown Alaska Airlines over 70 times in the past decade, coast to coast, up and down the West Coast, and on transcontinental red-eyes. From their Seattle hub to far-off destinations like Honolulu and Fort Lauderdale, Alaska has always intrigued me for one specific reason: they don’t try to be flashy, but they do try … Read more
As someone who’s flown nearly every major U.S. carrier across both domestic and transpacific routes, I approach airline “comfort” upgrades with healthy skepticism. They often promise more than they deliver, an inch here, a snack there, rarely enough to justify the cost. Hawaiian Airlines’ Extra Comfort seating claims to offer more than that.

After over a dozen flights with Vietnam Airlines across Southeast Asia and beyond, from Ho Chi Minh City to Tokyo, Hanoi to Frankfurt, I’ve come to appreciate its balance between affordable travel and reliable full-service quality. As Vietnam’s national carrier, it doesn’t try to rival Emirates or Singapore Airlines in luxury. But for regional and … Read more
United Airlines is one of those names that sparks polarizing opinions. I’ve flown United hundreds of times over the past decade, across domestic routes, transatlantic sectors, and ultra-long-haul flights. From cramped regional jets to the luxury of Polaris business class on a Boeing 787-10, I’ve experienced both ends of the spectrum. This review breaks down … Read more

Japan Airlines blends Japanese tradition with modern aviation standards, and this combination sets it apart in today’s competitive market. But … Read more
I’ve flown Scoot more than a dozen times over the past few years , from quick hops between Southeast Asian cities to longer hauls between Singapore and Australia. As someone who tracks airline performance closely and obsesses over cost-efficiency in travel, I’ve seen Scoot evolve, expand, and occasionally frustrate. The question I get most often: … Read more
I’ve flown with American Airlines more times than I can count, domestically, internationally, in coach, and in business. After years of using the carrier across all service classes and routes, I’ve come to expect certain things: reliable hubs, a vast route network, and inconsistent service quality. But with shifting industry standards, labor disruptions, and evolving … Read more
Budget travel in the U.S. has always come with trade-offs: low fares, yes, but often with unpredictable reliability, stripped-down service, and fees on top of fees. In that arena, Avelo Airlines is one of the newest names, and I’ve personally flown with them multiple times across the U.S. since they launched in 2021. Many travelers … Read more
When it comes to booking flights online, travelers are more cautious than ever.
