Hawaiian Airlines
// September 5th, 2009 // No Comments » // Hawaii, Love'm, USA
Anyone who’s ever flown to Hawaii on United or virtually any other US carrier knows it’s a flying sardine can – even in First. So when I recently flew on Hawaiian Airlines I was prepared for the worst. Wow – was I surprised. Hawaiian’s planes are comfortable even in coach, and their First Class service [...]

After my recent trip to Venice I’m trying to figure out why all the guidebooks lead everyone to believe the area by the (SMN) train station is dangerous and a dump with seedy hotels… It’s not. In fact the Amadeus Hotel is a wonderful 4 star hotel less than a 5 minute walk from the [...]
