Exquisite A350 Turkish experience in the skies I recently flew Turkish Airlines Business Class on the Airbus A350-900 from Istanbul Airport in Turkey to São Paulo Guarulhos International Airport in Brazil on a nearly 14 hour flight, and honestly, wow. You guys have been asking me to review Turkish Airlines for a long time, and now I completely understand why this airline is considered one of the best Business Class experiences in the world. After spending a few awesome hours inside the Turkish Airlines Business Class Lounge at Istanbul Airport, I made my way to the aircraft where the crew delivered one of the warmest welcomes I’ve experienced onboard an airline. I was seated in 1A, my absolute preferred seat on most long haul Business Class flights. Turkish Airlines’ Airbus A350-900 Business Class cabin features a 1-2-1 layout with direct aisle access for every passenger. What really stood out to me was the design of the seat itself. The curved shell around the seat gives it a private suite style feeling while still keeping the cabin spacious and elegant. The seat felt compact in the best possible way. Everything was within reach. There were multiple storage compartments, a mirror, adjustable lighting, plenty of personal space, and even premium Denon noise cancelling headphones which retail for over $400. Shortly after settling in, the onboard flying chef personally handed out menus, and honestly, I’ve rarely seen such a massive dining selection. Turkish Airlines might genuinely offer one of the widest Business Class menus in commercial aviation. More on the food in Part 2 because it deserves its own video. Then came the a welcome beverage, refreshing towels, and genuinely friendly service throughout the cabin. The seat itself was very comfortable, nicely padded, converted into a fully flat bed, and overall the experience felt refined from takeoff to landing. Part 2 coming next with the full onboard dining experience.

$840 China’s Luxury First Class High-Speed Train Experience 🇨🇳 | After seeing China’s Lixurious high speed trains everywhere online, I wanted to experience one for myself. I booked a return journey between Shanghai Hongqiao Railway Station and Beijing South Railway Station, including the G22 Fuxing high speed train, with the return ticket costing close to $840 The premium cabin had just 5 seats, with huge electrically adjustable seats that could even rotate to face either direction. Surprisingly, though, I preferred the privacy of the cabin below it, where you get a much more enclosed personal space. Different China Railway trains can also have different premium cabin layouts, so you may not necessarily get this exact configuration. What impressed me most was how incredibly smooth the train was at high speed. I even tested it by balancing a coin by the window while moving. The crew were another highlight, incredibly friendly and even using translation tools to communicate with me and make sure I had everything I needed. The biggest disappointment was the food. For such an expensive ticket, I wasn’t expecting a heated meal served in plastic packaging. You do also receive slippers, basic amenities, a snack box, water and juice throughout the journey. Overall, I’m glad I experienced China’s premium high speed rail for myself, but I personally didn’t find the top cabin worth the price. Next time, I’d save the money and travel in the cabin below, or even try the standard seating.

EXCLUSIVE: Inside Riyadh Air Inaugural Flight in Business Class on the Boeing 787-9. Yesterday, I had the incredible privilege of flying onboard Riyadh Air’s maiden flight from King Khalid International Airport to London Heathrow Airport. This is a historic moment I have been looking forward to for years. After a few hours inside Riyadh Air’s stunning Hafawa Lounge, which I’ll be reviewing soon, we headed to a special departure ceremony before boarding the airline’s brand new Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner. If I had to describe this experience in two words: Phenomenal hospitality. The warmth, energy, friendliness, and attention to detail from the crew were truly exceptional. The new 1-2-1 Business Class cabin feels straight out of the future, with beautiful lighting, sleek design, and one of the most impressive cabin aesthetics I’ve seen onboard an aircraft. Guests were welcomed with Riyadh Air’s signature drink, traditional Saudi coffee, and dates before CEO Tony Douglas personally came through the cabin to greet passengers. The Kayanee amenity kit was beautifully presented, and shortly after takeoff, the crew transformed the seat into one of the most comfortable beds I’ve experienced in Business Class. This is just the beginning. Follow along as I share my full 5 part Riyadh Air review series covering the lounge, seat, dining, amenities, and much more.
