The Singapore government announced a stay-home notice for ASEAN countries on Sunday night. Guess who was at the airport when it broke.

Review: Singapore Airlines A380-800 Suites Sydney to Singapore
Though an oldie, Singapore Airlines’ 2007 Suites still very much remains a goldie.
Review: Pier One Sydney Harbour, an Autograph Collection Hotel
Gorgeous views and easy harbour access make Marriott’s only property along Sydney’s iconic harbour an excellent choice for first-time visitors.
Review: THAI Airways B747-400 First Class Bangkok to Sydney
Is it worth the small detour to Bangkok just to fly THAI Airways’ flagship first class? In a word, yes. And I’d do it again a heartbeat.
Review: THAI Airways Royal First Class Lounge Bangkok
Champagne, a la carte dining and a signature Thai massage – all before your flight.
The Retro-Nostalgic Peregrination: Trip Planning
One more – hopefully not final – trip on the world’s two commercial superjumbo jets.
Review: Singapore Airlines B777-300ER First Class Tokyo to Singapore
Although this isn’t the best route to experience Singapore Airlines’ First Class, the quality underlying the product is undeniable.
Review: British Airways First Lounge New York JFK (it’s really bad)
The BA First Lounge at JFK may well turn into the happiest place in the world in the evenings, but if you’re visiting as an ANA passenger, it’s an absolutely dire experience.
Review: ANA B777-300ER “THE Room” New Business Class Tokyo to New York
Is ANA’s new Business Class worth the hype? Yes, in so many ways yes.
Review: ANA Lounge Tokyo Narita Airport
The ANA Lounge is definitely the place to spend your transit in Narita. Good selection of food, great showers and plenty of seating. Pity it lacks natural light.
Review: United Club Tokyo Narita Airport
Great views of the apron, pretty much the only selling point of the United Club in Tokyo Narita.
Review: Cathay Pacific A350-1000 Business Class Rome to Hong Kong
Cathay’s A35K Business Class is much the same as that on their A359s- comfortable, but not market-leading.
Review: Hilton Tokyo
Located just 5-10 minutes from Shinjuku station, this hotel is definitely a good choice if you’re planning to head to Tokyo. Great rooms, great breakfast and of course, great Japanese service.
Review: ANA B787-8 Regional Business Class Seoul Gimpo – Tokyo Haneda
For a short flight, this regional product did the trick. The overall experience felt too sterile though.
My very silly mistake with traveling on separate tickets (or when interlining goes wrong)
A five leg, four stopover, three carrier itinerary? What could possibly go wrong?
Review: Millennium Hilton Seoul
Close to Seoul station, this might be my preferred hotel over the Conrad the next time I’m in Seoul.
