One of the biggest frustrations about taking connecting flights is the uncertainty.

New Functionality With Delta’s iPhone App Update
Delta’s iPhone application is one of the best airline apps currently available.

But there are many other cool features and they’ve just added a few more with their latest update to the Delta…
Lunch In British Airways Concorde Room
After a tour around the Concorde Room, a shower and brief slumber in my private cabana, I headed over to the Concorde Room dining area to grab a bite to eat for lunch. Their menu changes around 12 noon so the items were more hearty (if possible) than the breakfast menu. There are two rows…

Have You Ever Considered Flying A “Dry” Airline?
I have to admit, on the surface, flying a dry airline appeals to Points, Miles & Martinis as much as the middle guillotine seat does. Ever since Saudia joined SkyTeam I’ve been intrigued not only by their route map with easy access to the Middle East, but equally by their award availability which can be…

Last Vestige Of The Mileage Runner & Is DPM The New Metric?
An important question is raised by the impending roll-out of Delta Medallion Qualifying Dollars (MQDs) and United’s future roll-out of the Premier Qualifying Dollars (PQDs). Is American Airlines the last vestige of the Mileage Runner? And is DPM the new mileage running metric to measure a successful flight? I would say yes, at least for the domestic U.S. mileage runner. But…

Which is better? Lufthansa First Class Terminal or Thai Royal First Lounge
Whenever you ask a room full of frequent flyers to name the best first class lounge in the world, two of the names you may hear the most are Lufthansa’s First Class Terminal in Frankfurt and Thai’s Royal First Lounge in Bangkok. I recently completed a rapid fire First Class around the world trip where…
