Creator's Key Takeaways

I make Airline trip reports high-end hotel reviews and cruise ship tours as well all without invitation I always film without the company's knowledge and I self-fund my trips

this new Plaza premium Lounge has truly got to be the biggest Lounge upgrade that I've ever seen

I was greeted by the very professional person and my first impressions of the cabin were quite good

overall it was a nice flight and a great seat for a fairly short Regional flight

This is NOT a promotional video. I pay for all of my flights and hotels (and I always tell you how much!) so I can be as honest and impartial as possible. I do not receive any special treatment that wouldn’t otherwise be publicly accessible, in fact, the hotels and airlines have no idea about my visit and that's the way I like it! #cathaypacific #tripreport #businessclass
