Top 14: Longest United Airlines Flights In the World

(Updated 9/1/16):

Added SFO-SIN Added TLV-SFO Removed IAD-DXB

I recently researched and completed a list outlining the longest Delta flights in the world and was surprised to see that Delta is considered to be one of the biggest airlines in the world based upon a number of metrics. However, I also became curious about the other U.S. based carriers.

TUESDAY’S TOP 5

Even though Cyber Monday is so last week, I’m still scouring the internet for big sales and perfect gifts for my friends and family. But, who can blame me for doing a little of my own wish list-making while I’m at it? At the top of my list this year are these 5 travel-related gifts:

1) These sunglasses are a) on sale and b) fantastic for each and every face shape. I’m dying for a pair of sunglasses that are nice enough to really keep my eyes shaded but also can withstand the dark spaces deep within my purse. Usually when I travel, I take only my cheap-o pair of sunglasses, but they’ve endured one too many scratches and I’m ready for a new pair! [...]

Tuesday’s Top 5: Thanksgiving Edition

I can not believe it is Thanksgiving Week already! I’m extra thankful for a short work week and that Jeffrey and I are lucky enough to spend time celebrating with both of our families this year. Jumping ahead of myself, I’ve found a handful of fun things to dive into once the holiday commences – here are a few travel-themed links I wanted to share. Let’s get in the Thanksgiving spirit – whether that’s booking crazy-awesome hotel deals on Black Friday or snuggling in and watching an entire season of An Idiot Abroad with the entire family.

1) Although Thanksgiving is thought to be a purely American holiday, I found this fascinating website [...]

Top 6: Awesome Vintage Airline Lounges ON Airplanes

Allegedly, flying used to not be all about getting violated by bureaucratic civil servants at the TSA–it used to be fun, exciting… even downright glamorous… or so I’m told.

We decided to brush up on our aviation history (some of you might consider it a trip down memory lane) and outline some of the most awesome and badass wonders of aviation we’ve ever seen.

…A time when the flight attendants wore short shorts and bought you liquor drinks two at a time.

Top 10 Coolest Park Hyatts

It’s no secret that Park Hyatt is one of the nicest hotel brands in the world, and it’s (by far) my personal favorite (so, no, this post is not sponsored by the Park Hyatt). Whenever Jeffrey surprises me with a stay at a Park Hyatt, I am over-the-moon excited! From the rooms’ decor to the delicious food to the incomparable service, there are no disappointments with Park Hyatt. Each time I stay in a Park Hyatt, I find my stay in the hotel a destination in and of itself — it’s hard to even leave the hotel to venture out to explore!

Like many other hotel chains, stores and restaurants, Park Hyatts are all pretty similar in “niceness” but [...]

Top 7: Longest domestic US flights Top 10: Longest Domestic Flights in the World Top 12: Longest Non-Stop Delta Flights in the World Top 15: Longest Fifth Freedom Flights in the World Top 10: World’s longest non-stop flights

Emirates has been more and more aggressive with Fifth Freedom routes (read more on Fifth Freedom routes here:  What are “Fifth Freedom” Airline Flights and Routes?)– probably the most active of any other airline in recent times. But, that just might be our skewed perception from all of the recent press; within about a year, Emirates:

was approved for a Fifth Freedom route from Milan-MXP to New York-JFK – Early [...]
