Asia, the Long Way: Holiday Inn Berlin City West
My flight from Istanbul was delayed, so I wasn’t on the ground in Germany past customs until about 9PM, hardly enough time to go into Berlin, catch some sleep at my hotel, and make my flight 12 hours later, so … Continue reading
Asia, the Long Way: Turkish Airlines Business Class Istanbul to Berlin
Since Turkish Airlines was only offering the extended city tour, I had to cut out of the city tour a bit early. Despite my best efforts to arrive at the airport with minimal time to spare, I still had time … Continue reading

Asia, the Long Way: Thai Business Class Bangkok to Tokyo
For my hop to Tokyo, I selected the Thai-operated redeye. Having relaxed in the Thai business class lounge until 45 minutes before departure, I decided to head to my gate. Boarding didn’t start until around 25 minutes before departure, leaving … Continue reading
Bangkok
For reasons that weren’t clear to me when I was wandering around (and even now), Times Square is to be found in Sukhumvit Bangkok as well.
