New Aircraft News

  • Qatar Airways buys 5% of China Southern Airlines – an interesting move by Qatar Airways to say the least. And sure to annoy Amercian Airlines
  • JetBlue firms up an order for 60 Airbus A220 aircaft – firming up the paperwork and pushing the A220 into acceptance.

Routes and networks

  • Finnair adds extra capacity to London for Summer 2019 – Feel extra flights and an A330 with Finnair over the summer

On the rails

  • REMINDER: UK Rail ticket prices go up (2nd January) – time to pay more to ride the railway… and some ways to say a few pennies.

Train vs Plane

In the battle of Train vs Plane – who wins between London and Brussels?

  • Train vs Plane – Back to Brussels Airport and the British Airways Lounge
  • British Airways BA399 Brussels Airport to London Heathrow – CLUB EUROPE
  • Heading back to Marylebone and heading home
  • Who wins the Brussels Edition?

Review 2018

Time to step back in time as I go through the highlights of the blog and what I found interesting in 2018

  • January – April
  • May to August
  • September to December
  • My year in review – and a year of improvements

Pretty pictures

  • Airplane Art – Swiss International Air Lines Airbus A340-300 taking off from Zurich

Next Week

Whilst I’m low on travel experiences for a bit, I do have some geeky things lined up on the blog. In particular:

  • I’m kicking off a series about life with the Canon EOS R and how I’m adapting to it as my primary camera.
  • There’s going to be some travel technology too – providing I can get the bits in to start this project off..
  • And I have some very interesting data that I’m working from the UK Border Agency. Very interesting data that I should be able to release Monday
