    New Review – Swiss Business Class Amenity Kit (Senses Edition)

    11/03/2026 / No Comments

    With the introduction of Swiss’ new A350 and the Senses board concept, the entire onboard experience was revamped – including the Business Class Amenity Kit (First Class review [here]). At a Swiss event, I learned more about it, and now I have one of these new kits in my hands. Here’s what I think. 📦 Contents Base Kit: What looks like very little at first glance is expanded through an almost inconspicuous note for on-request items. Swiss emphasizes sustainability, which I can understand. Other airlines like Singapore have been practicing this for a very long time. But let’s…

    New Review – Thai Airways Royal Silk / Business Class Amenity Kit (Greyhound)

    04/02/2026 / No Comments

    This Thai Airways amenity kit is provided in Royal Silk Business Class and comes in a nice blue pouch from Greyhound Original. It makes a pleasant (though not particularly luxurious) impression. Note: The zipper is intentionally placed at a diagonal angle. 📦 Complete Contents Packaging: Blue Greyhound Original pouch – stylish but not premium quality. ✨ Hands-On Impression The Good: Contains all flight essentials in a compact, attractive package. The blue color scheme matches Thai’s branding perfectly, and everything feels functional rather than cheap. What Works Well: Minor Critique: No extras like pen, eye drops, or premium branding. Solid but…

    New Review – Edelweiss Business Class Amenity Kit

    17/09/2025 / No Comments

    Sometimes I really wonder who comes up with the design of amenity kits. Over time I’ve built up quite a collection myself, though not all of them have made it onto the blog yet. But when I first saw the Edelweiss long-haul amenity kit, my immediate thought was: “Either do it properly – or not at all.” See for yourself: Contents of the Kit My Impression This kit is reduced to the absolute basics – and unfortunately, it shows. While other airlines even in Economy or Premium Economy often provide a bit more,…

    03/09/2025 / No Comments

    Today we take a closer look at the Lufthansa First Class Amenity Kit, developed in collaboration with Porsche Design. The black version is intended for men, while a white counterpart is available for women. At first glance, the Porsche Design branding promises a stylish and premium product – but does the kit live up to these expectations? 🎒 Design & Appearance The pouch is elegant and understated. As is typical for Porsche Design, clean lines, simple black coloring, and subtle details dominate. It feels sturdy and well-made, making it easy to reuse after the flight – for…

    ✈️ Lufthansa Senator Lounge Frankfurt (Schengen Area) – Honest Review & Insider Tips [2025]

    16/07/2025 / No Comments

    The Lufthansa Senator Lounge in the Schengen area of Frankfurt Airport (FRA) is a familiar place for many frequent flyers. But it’s still worth taking a closer look—especially when you manage to visit during a quieter evening, as I recently did. This gave me the perfect opportunity to explore the lounge in peace and bring you this honest, first-hand review. 📍 Location & Access The Senator Lounge is located in Terminal 1, Area A, just after the Duty-Free area, heading toward Gates A50. Opening hours:🕔 Daily from 5:00 AM to 10:00 PMThat’s longer than the Lufthansa First…

    Direct Turnaround in Tel Aviv: A Mileage Run Experience for HON Status

    28/06/2025 / No Comments

    Today, I have a slightly different kind of review with a special background. A friend of mine is looking to regain his HON status, so we were searching for a way to earn as many HON points as possible in a short period of time. After some research (and many Dubai-Addis trips with Eurowings on his part), we decided to book a flight from Tallinn to Tel Aviv. To optimize the process a bit, we chose the following route. This route ended up rewarding us with a total of 480 HON…

    Mileage Run Madness in Poland: 6 Legs, 4 Cities, 12 Hours – and Plenty of Points!

    23/05/2025 / No Comments

    For frequent flyers chasing status—whether Star Alliance Gold or Miles & More Frequent Traveller—it’s not always about long-haul business class flights. Sometimes, a well-planned weekend mileage run with cheap domestic flights can yield crucial qualifying points. The Experiment I tested this with LOT Polish Airlines: 6 domestic flights in one day, each booked separately as one-ways to maximize points and enjoy lounge access between flights. Why Book One-Ways? The Route (All from/to Warsaw – WAW) All flights took place in May with a tight schedule from early morning to evening.…

    New Review – Premium Economy British Airways (BA)

    07/03/2025 / No Comments

    How do you get from Dubai back to Europe, or more precisely Zurich, cheaply and yet not in Eco? Without several individual tickets within a reasonable time. The arrival time was due to work, so only a morning arrival was an option. Booking I booked the flight directly via the British Airways website, and the attractive price for a return ticket tempted me to take the return flight as well. I actually wanted to book the flight in Economy, but the small difference led me to book Premium Economy directly.…
