Last Week at Economy Class and Beyond (27th March)

26/03/2022 by Kevincm

We’re fast approaching the end of the month as the UK and Europe makes the jump to Summer Time, where we all lose an hour… again.

It must be time for Last Week at Economy Class and Beyond.

Trust me – this is less impressive than it looks – Solihull Station.

As normality resumes, the joy of the real world has been hitting me… and it’s a fun time, to put it mildly. Still, mustn’t grumble. 

Snapshots

So, here are the snapshots from my Chicago trip. The full trip report isn’t far away…

  • American Airlines 87 London Heathrow to Chicago O’Hare (Main Cabin Extra)
  • Crowne Plaza O’Hare (One-Bed Suite)
  • Hyatt Regency O’Hare (Double Room)
  • British Airways 296 Chicago O’Hare – London Heathrow (World Traveller Plus – Premium Economy)

Routes and Networks

  • Gatwick Airport prepares for a busy Summer season, with 30 long haul routes available – There is life at Gatwick
  • Air New Zealand prepares to head to New York – 16 hours from Auckland to New York – JFK
  • KLM to serve 167 destinations across its network for Summer 2022 – Almost normal times for KLM

New Aircraft News

  • Air Canada joins the A321XLR club – Whist Air Canada went Boeing for short-haul, it seems that some Boeing models can’t scale in the way some airlines want them
  • Delta takes delivery of its first Airbus A321neo – Delta Air Lines heads into the short-haul matrix

Travel Restrictions

  • easyJet to drop face-covering requirement on some routes – check before you travel if you can go mask-less or not

Pretty pictures

  • British Airways Airbus A380 at London Heathrow Airport

Next Week

We’ve got a couple of things lined up – firstly, the trip report will be kicking off sometime in the week (Look towards the mid-week – there are some things I need to fix before it starts going live).

I might also have a laptop review too for those who want black steel finish laptops.

As well as that, I’ll have the usual mix of news, views, updates and madness that is this blog.

Until then – safe travels and happy landings!
