United has established a network of its Business Class only Polaris Lounges. Having been around for four years now, the Polaris Lounge at Washington Dulles is the second of United’s two high-end offerings on the east coast. (The other one is in Newark EWR.) It’s the perfect place at IAD to relax before a long haul Business Class journey.

Situated in the heart of the Old Town along the banks of the Vltava River is one of Prague’s most luxurious hotels. The Four Seasons Prague blends renowned service with the charm of its historic surroundings in the Old Town, delivering fine attention to detail. Best of all, it provides excellent access to public transport and offers a signature view of the Prague Castle. 

One of Capital One’s most popular travel credit cards is offering a really high sign-up bonus that can be worth a lot towards air travel and hotel stays. The issuer has several transfer partners to choose from when it comes down to booking flights and hotels. Best of all, this credit card has a simple $95 annual fee and earns 2 miles per dollar on all purchases.

With nearly 70% of the airport’s market share, United has an important hub at Newark. Given the large volume of United flights, it’s no surprise that the airline has four lounges in EWR, including three United Clubs. Most United flights from Newark are out of Terminal C, however, Terminal A houses some domestic flights for the carrier. One of the nicest clubs in the entire system actually happens to be in Newark’s new Terminal A. 

Venice is known for its breathtaking architecture, numerous canals, and endless collection of boats and gondolas. Found in the heart of the city near several attractions is the St. Regis Venice, a classic hotel that blends artistic design with luxurious accommodations. With a gorgeous interior design and splendid rooms, the St. Regis is truly a fabulous Venetian hotel. 

Soon, we can start saying goodbye to American Airlines’ flagship domestic jet. The Airbus A321T (T standing for transcon) is a 102-seat jet that has been operating the airline’s most premium-heavy domestic routes across the country since 2014. But now, it’s time for this aircraft to begin heading in for retirement. 

A new airport lounge is coming to a major hub in the Charlotte area. Capital One recently announced that a brand new Capital One Lounge is set to debut at Charlotte Douglas International Airport (CLT), which will measure at 14,000 square feet and mark the issuer’s eighth outpost.

Delta Air Lines is expanding its widebody fleet of international jets with the addition of a new fuel efficiency aircraft for the airline, the Boeing 787 Dreamliner. On January 13, 2026, the Atlanta-based carrier announced plans to add 30 787-10s to its fleet. 

Lufthansa announced its Allegris Business Class product almost nine years ago back in 2017. However, the German flag carrier didn’t start flying aircraft with the Allegris seats until much later. Allegris features five different types of seats across the two Business Class cabins on some of Lufthansa’s A350s. At the beginning of 2026, we had the chance to experience Lufthansa Allegris Business Class on a flight from Munich to Newark. 

Situated in a former 18th century palace and Bavarian state bank, the Rosewood Munich blends contemporary German design with baroque elements. The property showcases refined classic and modern interiors and boasts an array of high-end amenities. With a location in the heart of the city, Rosewood Munich caters to hotel guests seeking a high-end experience in Bavaria’s largest city. 

Flying on the upper deck of a Boeing 747 is on every aviation enthusiast’s bucket list. It’s a distinct bubble that makes up a passenger section towards the front of the aircraft. Lufthansa’s 747-8s feature 32 Business Class seats on the upper deck, which provide a completely different perspective on flying as a passenger compared to traditional single-deck widebody aircraft. This plane won’t be around forever, and getting to fly on the Queen of the Skies (let alone on the upper deck) is an opportunity that shouldn’t be missed out on.

Here’s our experience flying Lufthansa’s 747-8 in Business Class between IAD and FRA.  

Back in February, I found a deal to fly First Class with Emirates from Dubai to New York, which was slightly more than Business Class. Of course, I was very excited to experience the flagship Emirates First Class Lounge in Dubai, which offers incredible luxury to its guests. The space is really large and packed with amenities, seating, and various food and beverage stations. 

Shortly ahead of my Air Canada Business Class flight from New York to Toronto, I visited the Maple Leaf Lounge in LaGuardia’s Terminal B. It’s a comfortable lounge that gives you a taste of the Air Canada experience prior to boarding the aircraft and offers complimentary food and drinks. The Maple Leaf Lounge is among one of several lounges in Terminal B’s eastern concourse. 

The United Club at New York LaGuardia Airport is located in the western concourse of Terminal B near gates 40 to 59. It’s open from 5:00 AM to 8:30 PM Monday through Friday, but closes at 7:30 PM on Saturdays. Overall, United’s Lounge at LGA covers all the basics and isn’t that crowded, with plenty of comfortable seating. 

A recent visit to Toronto in October was the perfect time for me to test out Air Canada’s short haul Business Class. I flew out from LaGuardia to Toronto Pearson onboard the airline’s A220 and decided to book a return flight on one of the regional jets. The airline’s mainline and regional jets offer vastly different Business Class experiences. Is Air Canada Express worth it? Or, should you try to seek flying one of the mainline Air Canada jets instead?

Air Canada Aeroplan is one of the best loyalty programs of a North American carrier, with several ways to earn and redeem points. One of the best uses for Aeroplan miles is to book Air Canada Business Class from the U.S. to Canada. A number of destinations on the East Coast have terrific value for Aeroplan miles when looking to book a Business flight to destinations such as Toronto or Montreal. Is Air Canada short haul Business Class worth the extra cash or points? Continue reading to find out!

United Airlines is making an investment into its airport lounges, with new clubs sporting modern design motifs. About two and a half years ago, the carrier opened a new United Club at Chicago O’Hare (ORD). The outpost in O’Hare’s Terminal 1 is a perfect example of one of United’s new Clubs with more seating and space for travelers. 

As part of a major summer domestic expansion, United began flying its sleek A321neos to its Newark hub in June from Chicago and Denver. The airline is expanding its route network for the aircraft type, which is set to become a major part of the backbone of United’s domestic fleet. United’s A321neos have a strong base at Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport (ORD) and feature the airline’s latest domestic First Class and Economy seats. A recent flight on the United A321neo in domestic First Class was the perfect opportunity for me to experience the carrier’s latest short/medium haul offerings. 

United operates an all-Boeing widebody fleet, with 767 aircraft primarily based at the carrier’s Newark hub. Majority of the 767s operating for United are of the -300 variant, which are the smallest widebodies (by size and number of seats) operating at United. However, the airline operates 16 of the slightly larger 767-400s. These jets mostly operate transatlantic flights between the East Coast and Europe. A recent flight on a seasonal route from Venice to Newark was the perfect chance for me to put United’s 767 Polaris product to the test.
