You guys always wanted me to try Delta Air Lines, “America’s finest airline.” So, I took a trip on the world’s busiest airport in Atlanta to see what they are really like. The result? Shockingly bad. Dirty, old, and broken seats, a cabin crew casually chilling with a Starbucks in her hand while boarding, and a cold service culture that made me question how good they really are.
I recently headed to Malaysia’s capital, Kuala Lumpur, to experience a true world first: Berjaya Air’s all-First Class/Business Class configured ATR 72. While variations of luxury narrowbodies exist, an all-premium ATR is something the aviation industry hasn’t really seen before.
Flight delays can quickly turn a well-planned trip into a stressful experience. Whether you are flying from the United States to Europe or returning from the European Union to the US, a significant delay can disrupt connections, business meetings, holidays, and family plans. The good news is that passengers on many transatlantic routes may have rights that entitle them to compensation, assistance, or reimbursement depending on the circumstances.
Air Algérie has been one of the most highly requested airlines on my channel. I previously tried to fly them two years ago on a transit route from Paris to Dubai, but ended up on a wet-leased High Fly aircraft instead. This time, it finally happened: a double-header itinerary featuring their 24-year-old Boeing 737-600 and their brand-new flagship, the Airbus A330-900neo.
Air Montenegro has publicly responded to Josh Cahill’s recent review of the airline, which highlighted several service failures during his journey, including being downgraded from Business Class to Economy despite holding a valid Business Class ticket.
Montenegro is a stunningly beautiful nation with crystal-clear waters and breathtaking mountain landscapes. It’s a country that deserves a boutique, proud flag carrier to match its tourism potential. Instead, it has Air Montenegro, an airline that has officially claimed the title of “Europe’s Dodgiest Airline.”
Having recently survived a grueling 29-hour journey from Buenos Aires to Shanghai, I felt mentally fortified to tackle a true bucket-list route: the world’s longest non-stop commercial flight from Singapore Changi (SIN) to New York (JFK). This route is operated by Singapore Airlines’ specialized Airbus A350-900ULR (Ultra Long Range). It’s a premium-heavy bird built to stay airborne for up to 20 hours,, featuring 67 Business Class seats and 94 Premium Economy seats. You won’t find a basic economy cabin here.
As the industry in 2026 continues to consolidate, we’re seeing the end of some iconic brands. The merger between Asiana and Korean Air means the end of the Asiana name as we know it. I’ve always had a soft spot for Asiana, and with the airline’s fleet set to be absorbed by Korean Air by the end of the year, I wanted to experience their Airbus A380 one last time.
Today, we are taking a literal step back in time. I booked a business class ticket on a domestic flight in China to experience a true living legend: the oldest active passenger aircraft in the country. This isn’t just any aging widebody; this specific Air China Boeing 747-400 served as China’s “Air Force One” for decades, and it is the exact plane that chartered North Korean leader Kim Jong-un to Singapore for his historic summit with President Trump.
Spending more than a day in the air is the ultimate test of endurance for any traveler. Recently, China Eastern introduced the world’s longest flight route: a brutal 29-hour trek starting in Argentina, crossing three continents, covering 20,000 miles, and landing in China. Seeking out the ultimate aviation challenge, I booked myself a seat in the very back of economy class to see what it’s really like to suffer and survive the most demanding flight on Earth.
