Flying with Asiana

by Carly Allen

Apr 17, 2018

I have flown Asiana Airlines a few time while traveling through Asia but never directly from the States until now. Last week I took Asiana’s nonstop Los Angeles to Incheon flight aboard their A380 business class and was impressed. Their business class is a 1-2-1 configuration with cream colors that are a bit bland, but with lie-flat seats and decent entertainment, it was a nice arrangement. The flight attendants were very attentive but not overwhelming, as they kept me supplied with hot green tea throughout the 12 hours of flying, as I don’t sleep well on planes (very convenient for how much I travel!).

Dinner service was quick, and I chose the Korean dishes that were brought out in several waves, which I always love as it makes the dinner service a true experience. I enjoyed the finely sliced pork and fluffy white rice rolled up in fresh greens and sauces and salt. My mango cheesecake was excellent for dessert, and I topped it off with a small glass of port.

The flight was easy and marked a great kick-off to my business trip.

Asiana’s new A350s will be coming to the United States very soon, and I am looking forward to trying it out on my next trip to Seoul!

Versatile and Vibrant, Modern Asti Spumante Is Not the Simple Party Fizz of the Past

I recall attending a New Year’s Eve party in my early 20s during which our host walked around at midnight filling guests’ flutes with celebratory toasts of “Champagne” or Asti Spumante. Now, the former wasn’t actually Champagne, just a cheaply made domestic Brut more suited to the budgets of people just entering the workforce. But those of us who liked our bubbly on the drier side preferred it to what we viewed as a sweet, simple Italian quaffer.

Review: Casa Gangotena

ARRIVAL/CHECK-IN: Facing one side of San Francisco Plaza in Quito’s Old Town, you’d be forgiven if you, at first, mistook the hotel for a palatial residence or estate, where the fourth or perhaps fifth generation of a family resides. Casa Gangotena, a Relais & Châteaux property, was, in fact, a home for many, built in the 17th century and later home to several presidents. The entrance reminds you you’re on very special grounds, from crown molding ceilings to opulent chandeliers to velvet couches, and staff guided me to check-in, beginning my very own regal stay.
