The Royal Wedding Trip

Hi All!

I am still away on the Royal Wedding trip but all went well. It was a fantastic day and I have lots to write about when I eventually get home. I am on my way back to Australia now for my sisters wedding so once that is all over expect a steady flow of blog posts to hit the page!

Cheers

    As a new follower I'm LOVING catching up on your previous blog entries! You seem to enjoy the bits of travel that I also enjoy and other seem to overlook - amenity kits, seat configuration/ selection, lounge meals/drinks (I'm a champagne lover too) and repeating the meals/drinks experience once on board, toiletries in the bathrooms etc. I also don't mind delays and am VERY happy to settle back in a comfortable lounge and do some more snacking and drinking. Keep up the great work mate.

I had heard good things about the airline so I decided to give them a go and visit Istanbul for the first time. The flight I am reviewing today is TK65, the daytime service from Bangkok to Istanbul. When I booked it was scheduled to be on an Airbus A330-300 with the latest business class product. Unfortunately when I went on Flightradar24 the night before the flight to see which aircraft had left Istanbul to operate the service I found out my flight had been swapped to the smaller A330-200.  I suppose the fact that there was a military coup with strict curfews in place in Bangkok at the time meant that the flight would be lightly loaded but unfortunately it meant I would be stuck in the older and much less exciting angled lie flats for the 10 hour journey. Disappointing but there was nothing I could do about it. Turk...

FLIGHT EY131 AIRLINE Etihad Airways ROUTE Abu Dhabi to Washington Dulles GATE DEPARTURE 10.55AM GATE ARRIVAL 5.25 PM FLIGHT TIME 14 hours 30 min AIRCRAFT Boeing 787-9 (A6-BLA) There has been a lot of hype from Etihad about their new Business Studio seat so earlier in the year I decided I had to try it! I was heading to New York but since the business studios only feature on the A380 and B787-9 Dreamliner, I decided to fly via Washington. Washington is the first long haul destination Etihad served with B787 equipment and is the only USA destination not served with Etihad B777's currently.
