How To Fly With A Baby

A couple of days ago, my friend Rhiannon showed up on my doorstep, fresh off 2 flights with her 4yo, 2yo and 6 month old in tow.  She was killing time in Singapore before setting off on a 13 hour …

Thai Airways Flight Review: Hong Kong to Phuket

If you’re flying from Hong Kong to Phuket, Thailand you have 4 options: Cathay Dragon (always the most expensive), Thai Airways, Air Asia and HK Express (the latter having more unsociable flying times).  On our recent trip to the Angsana Laguna …

Flying To Bhutan

Flying to Bhutan is no easy feat.  The country has two airlines, the national carrier Royal Bhutan Airlines, aka Druk Air and Bhutan Airlines, the latter being a relatively new privately operated carrier.  If you are considering a trip to Bhutan, …

Activities For A Longhaul Flight

Tomorrow I’m embarking on a 12 hour day flight from Hong Kong to London. Myself, Jetlag & Mayhem it’s gonna be great. We can kick back, relax, drink wine (me, not them), watch endless amounts of TV. Chat about the …

Singapore Airlines Flight Review

It has been a long time since I’ve flown with Singapore Airlines.  Have you seen their luxurious First Class Suites? They look unbelievable, pretty much a whole room to yourself!  Unfortunately I wasn’t reviewing the front of the plane but …

Review of Thai Airways: Hong Kong to Phuket

For our Christmas trip to Phuket, I chose to fly with Thai Airways as it was half the price of Cathay Pacific.  Thai Airways is part of the Star Alliance, which includes Singapore and United Airlines.  Thai’s Royal Orchid Plus …

Life At The Airport With No Kids

99% of the time I’m flying with my kids.  In general Mesdames Jetlag & Mayhem (ages 7 and 5) are becoming easier to handle. Yet hanging about at the airport still isn’t that much fun.  There’s almost always a fight about who …

  • I was in dire need of some luggage so bought this @antlerofficial Zeo-lite from @fenwickstores Extra bonus as it was on sale! So far am v impressed. Even my dad & husband who are luggage-opinionated (complimentary adjective btw) were approving. Lightweight, easy to manoeuvre and seemingly robust. Stay tuned for a full review! . . . #antler #antlerzeolite #luggage #suitcase #luggagereview #fenwick #lightweight #travel #igtravel #suitcasetravels #review
  • My sister & family are currently in Koh Samui. I had to share these gorgeous pics of my niece @samuielephantsanctuary This is the 1st ethical elephant sanctuary on Samui. The elephants have all been saved from those awful tourist trekking places (I sadly have been guilty of partaking in an elephant ride about 5 yrs ago). These elephants are not forced to play or feed with tourists. My sister said it was an incredible experience seeing elephants treated with dignity and kindness. . . . #elephant #samuielephantsanctuary #thailand #animalsanctuary #samuiwithkids #familytravel #kohsamui
  • There’s something magical about that A380! Jetlag & Mayhem were v excited to be on the upper deck (although reality is it just looked like any other economy cabin). I know a lot of people like to slag off @british_airways but I thought the staff were excellent . . . #planespotter #britishairways #a380 #heathrow #airport #flying #jetsetter
  • Hands down, best check-in experience ever! Despite queues at regular Bag Drop, we were ushered quickly to the empty ‘Family Zone’. This lovely @british_airways staff member (sorry I didn’t get your name!) was amazingly helpful with seats. She also let the girls press the baggage buttons. Massively appreciate this extra touch when flying solo with two kids . . . #heathrow #britishairways #checkin #familytravel #airport #flying #flyingwithkids #jetset #igtravel
  • I’ve seen too many kids sunglasses break over the years... Hooray for indestructible, bendy shades @roshambobaby bought @kidshappyhouseuk Demo’d by my lovely niece Abbie, currently bending her sunglasses all over Thailand 😎 . . . #sunglasses #roshambo #kidstravelproducts #familytravel #travelwithkids #sunnies #poolessentials
  • I know some of you find this terrible exciting... Next level packing cubes aka labelling with pen . . . #travel #traveltips #packingcubes #packing #familytravel #packingcube #organisation
  • Living my best hipster life down Shoreditch today @acrylicize . . . #london #londonlife #grafitti #easterbreak
  • No filter needed for this #mondaymotivation on a dreary rainy London morning. Throwing it back to my favourite beach on earth @amanpulo Might need to win the lottery to return but I dream about that island most weeks! . . . #perfection #luxurytravel #beach #philippines #pamalican #amanpulo #amanresorts #instablue
  • So this was breakfast on a recent @british_airways long haul flight. I have to say, half decent! But we can just agree to loz the disgusting chemical orange juice. Nobody needs that, especially kids who will also spill it! Best of all they had run out of all options except for this omelette. So I got a Bircher muesli donated from business class.. yum! . . . #britishairways #airlinemeal #airline #breakfast #economy #omelette #instafood
