Review: STARLUX Airlines A330neo Business Class (KIX-TPE)

Airlines Aaron Wong - May 5, 2023 3

STARLUX's Business Class experience remains stellar even on short-haul regional flights, with all the frills you could need (and then some).

Roku Kyoto Review: Stunning, disappointing, all at once

Hilton Aaron Wong - Apr 29, 2023 23

The Roku Kyoto's stunning architecture and picturesque setting is unfortunately marred by indifferent service and underwhelming F&B.

Review: Conrad Osaka

Hilton Aaron Wong - Apr 23, 2023 15

The Conrad Osaka costs a pretty penny, but delivers on every front with stunning views, beautiful facilities, top-notch dining and impeccable service.

Review: Hilton Tokyo

Hilton Aaron Wong - Apr 19, 2023 14

No flash or glitz here, but a prime location, great lounge experience and renovated rooms allow the Hilton Tokyo to punch above its weight.

Popping My Cherry Blossom: Trip Planning

Trip Reports Aaron Wong - Apr 17, 2023 18

My first-ever cherry blossom experience, featuring Hilton Tokyo, Conrad Osaka, and Roku Kyoto, plus STARLUX and China Airlines.

Review: Qatar Airways A350-900 Business Class (DOH-SIN)

Airlines Aaron Wong - Mar 23, 2023 12

Qatar's older Business Class seat lacks privacy, but is otherwise solid. That said, it'll always be a disappointment when substituted for Qsuites.

Review: Qatar Airways Platinum and Gold Lounge North

Airlines Aaron Wong - Mar 22, 2023 6

Qatar's temporary Business Class lounge gets the basics right, but comes off rather sterile- more "frequent flyer lounge" than flagship (as it's intended to be!)
