A look inside the Emirates Lounge at Auckland Airport, which is currently serving Qantas Business Class passengers during the Qantas lounge renovation. While pleasant and functional, the experience was ultimately unremarkable, leaving me eager to see the all-new Qantas International Lounge when it debuts in 2026.

The Singapore Airlines SilverKris Lounge in Incheon International Airport (ICN) is quite possibly the best Star Alliance lounge in Seoul - passengers with Star Alliance Gold status departing on an eligible flight may also enter the lounge to enjoy its superior F&B offerings.

The Asiana Business Lounge at Incheon International Airport (ICN) may look great aesthetically but the lack of food and premium beverage options makes it a lot less desirable.

Malaysia Airlines’ Regional Golden Lounge may be a smaller airport lounge compared to the flagship one in the Satellite Terminal but it has a better design and nicer seating areas which may be more conducive for travellers on a longer layover.

The Malaysia Airlines Satellite Golden Lounge is a great airport lounge to visit when you are departing from KUL and you can access it by using only 12,500 Avios when flying between Singapore and Kuala Lumpur.

My first flight out of Singapore after the pandemic took me to the US on Singapore Airlines 777-300ER in Business Class - check out my review of SQ26 here!

The Restaurant A380 @Changi experience was easily one of the most unforgettable dining experiences in Singapore that every aviation geek should try.

My flight back from Taipei to Singapore was the last one before the countries started to impose border closures and lockdown measures.
