Virgin Australia Builds Business-Class Bar

Jun 8, 2016
Daily

Known for its tricked-out planes, the Virgin brand has another trick up its sleeve. Virgin Australia recently released a swanky new bar in the cabin, which opens after the flight’s first meal service. The bar is located in business class on retrofitted Boeing 777-300ERs. These flights will also serve a continental breakfast before the full breakfast service. The bar area is only accessible to business-class passengers, so economy-class travelers will have to settle for flight attendant seat-side service. The business class cabin — The Business in Virgin parlance — is made up of 37 individual and private suites that convert into 80-inch beds for sleeping. The airline is also outfitted with 18-inch entertainment screens and large console areas with charging ports. Virgin Australia recently announced plans for new Economy Space+ seats, which will offer extra legroom, individualized overhead space, the promise of first meal choice, dedicated crew members serving only this level and a noise-canceling headset. These premium seats are located in the first five rows and the exit rows of the economy cabin. Newsletter sign-up

High-Spirited Hong Kong: The Dynamic Hub Embraces Its Maritime History and Culture

It was known as the “Kai Tak heart attack” — the thrilling, terrifying final approach into Hong Kong’s Kai Tak Airport. Airliners were required to bank sharply at the last moment, dodging hills and apartment blocks to line up with a runway jutting out into Kowloon Bay. The airport is long gone, but international visitors are arriving at Kai Tak again, albeit more sedately. Their cruise ships dock smoothly at Kai Tak Cruise Terminal, a modern gateway designed by Sir Norman Foster.

Review: InterContinental Barcelona

When searching for a place to stay in Barcelona, I was picky. I wanted a well-situated hotel to access all the city has to offer and to serve as a respite from the hustle and bustle of the Spanish hot spot. My search led me to InterContinental Barcelona.
