Flew UA 196 from GUM – NRT, but there’s also two other flights each day, UA 828 and UA 873. At NRT I connected to a HKG bound ANA flight. Check-in at Guam airport was a breeze, I only saw one other passenger during check-in. At security there was literally no line in front of me so I breezed into ... Read More »

Came to the island of Guam and what a lovely place it is. Many people say it’s similar to Hawaii but less developed. I have never been to Hawaii so I can’t testify to that, but I can imagine that being so. In case you do not know, Guam is a U.S. territory with both a naval and air force ... Read More »

I recently came back to HK on a trip from the U.S. and since it was the height of summer, ended up buying the cheapest ticket I could find, which was on United Airlines. I had flown Continental ten years ago EWR – HKG which wasn’t that good, and once from NRT – LAX on UA, but I couldn’t remember ... Read More »
Delta and United, which are the only US based carriers that fly into HKG, only allow 1 free checked bag allowance; I’m utterly appalled at this fact. If you’re traveling with at least two checked bags, make sure you factor the 2nd checked bag fee into your fare comparisons! To my knowledge, all carriers allow two free checked bags to/from North America ... Read More »
I wanted to mention about the valuable award redemption opportunities in Asia for UA MileagePlus members.

North Asia: China, South Korea, Mongolia, Taiwan South Asia: Bangladesh, Bhutan, Brunei, Cambodia, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Laos, Macau, Malaysia, Myanmar, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, ...

My first travel related post will be for UAL members…not too many in HK, but they do fly here from SFO and ORD, and now EWR after the CO merger. Courtesy of the points guy, UAL is selling miles 40% off today, good until 12:59pm April 26th, HKT. However, I don’t think this price makes it really worthwhile ... Read More »
