Shower. Massage. Champagne. A Porsche to drive you to your plane.
All of these things are found at the best airport lounges in the world. The lounge visit is a crucial part of the travel experience for me, particularly when traveling internationally. There’s just something about having a quality meal, a few quality beverages, and a relaxing shower or massage that gets my mind right before I fly.
I get asked pretty frequently to talk about my favorite lounges in the world. I have not visited all of the great lounges out there but I’ve been to quite a few. Let’s take a look at my five favorite lounges and then I’ll tell you about some lounges I want to visit next.

Part of being a blogger in the miles and points space is have a roster of good trip reports. While I’d say I flew these flights so I could offer a more thorough analysis and comparison of the various airlines, honestly I really just wanted to fly in really nice cabins and drink lots of champagne!
That said, I want to tell you about some of my favorite flights, for those of you who may be new to Andy’s Travel Blog.

From time to time I’ll review some travel products here on the blog, like my review of the Looptworks Messenger Bag. I try to only review things that are high-quality and directly applicable to me as a traveler, and this one was a doozy. A company reached out to me with a big claim: they made the best travel pants. in the world.
whoa.

Beijing definitely has its pros and cons. One of the biggest pros of Beijing is the hotel prices, which tend to be reasonable even for higher-end properties. I was only going to have one night in Beijing so I wanted to stay at a nice property and settled on the St. Regis Beijing.

Andy was surprised this airline offered a First Class cabin so he just had to check it out on his trip to Asia.
