With the Ring Road encircling the entire island, the Land of Fire and Ice is a place that was made for road trips. More and more people are becoming aware of this fact and the surge in Iceland camper rental is a testament to this fact. But when renting a camper in Iceland, not all campers are created the same. When booking your vehicle you need to decide whether or not 4×4 camper rental in Iceland is right for you.
Why Iceland Camper Rental is a Great Choice
So why the popularity of camper rentals specifically, and not car rentals? The answer is that camper rental is probably the most inexpensive way see everything our beautiful Nordic island has to offer. While it’s true that campers are not quite as fuel-efficient as some smaller cars, what they lack in this area they make up for in others. The cost of gas isn’t the only factor to take into account when planning your budget. RV rental in Iceland is the way to go if you’re looking to save money overall.
When you rent a camper on your road trip, you’ll save money in two different ways. The first is on accommodation. The daily cost of a campervan in Iceland is much less expensive than the total of renting a car and staying at hotels.
Second, you can also stick to your budget by cooking your own meals. Iceland is a country where sandwiches can easily cost $15 and soup and salad at a restaurant starts around $20. Preparing your own breakfast, lunch, or dinner in your camper rental kitchenette can save you a pretty penny.
You don’t even necessarily have to look at cheap campers. There are deals on all models, especially during the off-season. And if you don’t want to rely on the showers at campsites, then perhaps motorhome rental in Iceland could be a better choice for you.
Campervan rental in Iceland also provides you with a ton of freedom and flexibility with your itinerary. Because you don’t need to make a reservation at campsites, you’re not bound to pre-booked arrangements. This is especially useful during the times of summer and the Midnight Sun when we have daylight for nearly 24 hours. You just set out in the morning, explore to your heart’s content with no concern for schedule, and then when you’re ready to rest, simply pull into the nearest campsite. You should, however, be aware of fatigue and not drive for too many hours or return extremely late.
Camper Van Rental in Iceland: 4×4 or 2WD?
So now that you know all of the benefits and advantages of Iceland campervan rental, what are the different categories of campers? When browsing the different models on Iceland camper rental company websites, you’ll see that some offer a Mercedes camper van rental like the Marco Polo 4×4. A 4-wheel drive camper van is an option because of F-Roads in the Icelandic Highlands.
These special mountain roads are only open in the summer and can be quite difficult to drive on due to their gravel surface. A 4WD vehicle is mandated by law for driving on this type of road. You’ll need to rent either a 4×4 camper or SUV to enter these roads in Iceland’s interior. There are plenty of stunning landscapes and hidden gems in our island’s wild backcountry. If you want to experience them, make sure you have the right type of vehicle.
An Iceland 4×4 camper van rental can also help you feel safer when you encounter winter driving. The sometimes precarious road conditions and weather conditions are much easier to maneuver with a 4-wheel drive.
4×4 Camper Van Rental in Iceland
There are several models to choose from if you think that 4×4 camper van rental in Iceland might be the right option for your trip. The aforementioned Mercedes Marco Polo 4×4 is a modern choice that comes with all the latest features. Another extremely popular Iceland 4×4 rental camper is the VW California. This updated classic was specially designed as a camper van and will have flower children feeling nostalgia from its the van’s heyday in the 1960s. If you’ve got a larger party, the VW Crafter 4×4 fits up to five passengers and can still take you around the Highlands.
Northern Lights Hunt by Camper
If you opt for a camper van rental in Iceland between late September and the end of March, you’re in for a special treat. Because you’ll be traveling here during Northern Lights season, it’s quite easy to go on a Northern Lights tour to hunt for the Aurora Borealis. Be sure to set out on a clear night and get as far away from civilization as possible. The less light pollution you encounter, the better your views of the auroras will be. Once you’ve found the perfect spot and aurora activity is high, make yourself comfortable. Convert the bed in the back of your camper, lay down, and enjoy the spectacular light show in the sky. Turn on your camper’s Webasto heater to stay extra warm and toasty in your sleeping bag.
Do I Need a 4×4 Camper Rental in Iceland?
Camper rental is hands-down the best way to experience Iceland. This is true whether it’s your first time visiting this naturally blessed island or your tenth. Camping in Iceland is the perfect way to get up close and personal with the natural beauty our lovely island is so famous for.
Remember that you’ll need to bring your credit card and provide it as a guarantee for your rental. Otherwise, you’ll need to make alternate arrangements. Also check the pick up and drop off location for your camper. Some companies have offices at the airport while others are in the city center.
We’ve written a post about the best 4×4 camper rental Iceland companies, So please feel free to take a look. And once you’ve booked your vehicle, take a look at around our blog. It’s a great source to start planning for your trip of a lifetime.

After carrying out various activities for months, taking a short leave to release fatigue by means of a vacation is the right choice. You can go on a nature tour visiting cool places that give your mind a time to relax.
Indonesia has many natural attractions that you can visit, even by car. For example, starting from the Tebing Keraton Bandung, traveling to Dieng, the Hutan Pinus (Pine Forest) Mangunan Bantul, Yogyakarta, or those of you who live in Jakarta can visit the Air Terjun Leuwi Hejo (waterfall) which is located in Sentul, Bogor Regency.
To make your trip more practical, you can bring a private car or rent a car at the closest car rental to your vacation location. Several brands and types of cars can be relied upon. Here are the best car recommendations for traveling in nature with family from MPM Rent.
If you and your family have mountain tourism destinations, then the Toyota New Kijang Innova can be a suitable car. This car is equipped with an inline 4-cylinder DOHC engine with Dual VVT-i technology with a power of 139 PS / 5,600 rpm with a capacity of 1,998 cc.

Still coming from the Toyota manufacturer, the All New Veloz can also be relied upon as a vehicle for traveling in nature. This car has dimensions of 4,475 mm in length, 1,750 mm in width and 1,700 mm in height so that it can be relied on in all road terrain.
To stay comfortable during long trips, you can change the entire configuration of this car seat to long sofa mode. Meanwhile, in terms of features, the car is equipped with wireless charging on the center console, an automatic air conditioning system that will regulate the cabin temperature to remain comfortable, and a 9-inch screen at the top of the cabin on the second row of seats. To further ensure the safety of drivers and passengers, the Toyota New Veloz has been equipped with Toyota Safety Sense (TSS) features, such as Pre-Collision Warning and Braking, Pedal Misoperation Control, Lane Departure Warning and Prevention, and Front Departure Alert.

The Toyota All New Rush has an inline 4-cylinder DOHC type engine with Dual VVT-i technology with a capacity of 1,496 cc which is capable of producing power of 104 PS/6,000 rpm. Thanks to the engine performance, this car is one of the fuel-efficient cars.
For those of you who like to do extreme activities, you should travel along offroad tours. This adrenaline-pumping offroad adventure generally requires special cars such as Jeeps, Land Rovers, and others. This is because offroad tourism has tracks full of mud, rocky, narrow paths, uphill, to sharp turns.
One of the car recommendations that are suitable for offroad is the Suzuki Jimny. This tiny jeep from Suzuki has compact dimensions with capabilities that cannot be underestimated.
Suzuki Jimny carries a K15B engine with a capacity of 1,462 cc with 102 PS of power and a maximum torque of 130 Nm. To support offroad capabilities, the Suzuki Jimny is equipped with a 3-Link Rigid Axle and coil springs on the front and rear which can also absorb shocks when crossing uneven roads.

With prices starting from IDR 325 million, the Toyota New Sienta is one of the vehicles that is suitable for travel in nature. What's more, the third row seats can be folded so that it will increase the area of the car's trunk.

Compact, an experience
Not made clear in the marketing but this was a room in a container.
Very, very compact and like staying in a mini sized caravan. Once on circuit difficult to find, partly as we were looking for a 'hotel' type building, so better sign posting on site would help. Staff excellent, breakfast, minimal price acceptable as in an expensive location. On race days cost goes up immensely so don't expect value rates as the norm - check first. Pleasant surprise to find free to use X-box, PS3, simulator games in reception area as we had two children with us on a rainy day. We needed local accommodation to attend a nearby wedding and for this it was fine.
Excellent for short stay
Brilliant accommodation if you just need a couple of nights somewhere comfortable.
Very compact but comfortable accommodation, no fills bells or whistle.
Breakfast with a bacon or sausage bap seems a great idea
snoozebox super stay, ticked all boxes
very enjoyable stay, overlooked track, great bfast, managed to check in early, very clean, everything worked, ideal for short stay, bar is situated on top floor in reception, you can imagine the view!
Snooze box - Silverstone
Quirky, convenient and fun
Fantastic customer service
Our taxi company didn't show up in the morning to return Us to our Car.
The hotel staff drove us 7 miles to collect our car so we
could return home. Beyond and above the call of duty. Fantastic service. Thank you for a great stay.
Convenient location but noise can be an issue
Great for convenience, but even though I was in the 'quiet' end and just wanted to bed down at about 10pm, as most drivers would with a busy day testing ahead, the other non racing people staying had other ideas and stayed up until midnight right outside my room, keeping me awake.
There is a perfectly good bar and seating area if you want to socialize, the clue is in the name Snoozebox, I want to Snooze, not listen to idiots talking nonsense all night.
Perfect for a night staying in the area
Room wasn't overly big, but had all the essentials needed, which included a comfy bed and a very clean and well working shower-room.
All in all a very modern little room, which suited my one-night stay.
compact clean and comfortable
Very compact but clean and comfortable.
Couldn't stay any closer to the circuit that this. Great buffet breakfast of bacon and sausage rolls with coffee.

Aircraft and Flight
Cathay Pacific also use the 777-300 for their shorthaul Hong Kong to Manila routes but I also believe they use the airbus a330 and new airbus a350. However unlike their longhaul route which incorporates a 4 class cabin, their shorthaul (or this specific flight)only use a 3 class cabin as there is no first class tier or have never seen it in this specific flight.
Hong Kong to Manila is around an hour and a half in flight time.
Cathay Pacific’s shorthaul economy seat on their 777-300 is the same as that of their longhaul economy products (from what I have experienced a few times) click here .
The huge difference between Cathay Pacific’s longhaul and shorthaul is their meals which quiet understandably is reduced from 2 meals (LHR>HKG) into a quick snack bag. This small card bag contains a drink (sometimes water other times juices), a biscuit (usually Anzac cookie) and a pastry (many different flavours). The pastry in itself is very delicious and rightly warm, however although flavours of the pastry will change, if you are a frequent flyer with the airline this could get very boring. The cookie is standard and the drink inside the bag changes without a choice, the crew do not offer any other beverages and I am not too sure if you can request one either. The bag is nice and convenient, when you are done with your snacks you can put all your rubbish inside so it can be collected later. However if you like little souvenirs this small card bag is nice to keep.
The premium economy seat in this route (shorthaul) is also the same product as their longhaul premium economy seat (click here).
However the biggest surprise is that the meal or snack in this flight was exactly the same as their economy meal. The snack also included the same Anzac cookie, a drink and a pastry which all does the job for this short flight. The small bag the meal comes in is nice and for those souvenir lovers it is nice to keep, otherwise it is very convenient to use for your rubbish until it is collected.
Other than the meals and the exclusion of a first class cabin, I didn’t see much of a difference from their longhaul flights than I have seen on other airlines. This is a good thing in opinion as it gives a seamless journey.

Aircraft and Flight
Cathay Pacific usually use the Boeing 777-300 on their London Heathrow to Hong Kong route but I believe they are also using their new airbus a350. The aircraft incorporates a four tier cabin layout with six first class suites, fifty three flat bed business class, thirty four premium economy and one hundred and eighty two economy seats. I have only experienced and will write about their economy and premium economy tiers.
London to Hong Kong is around eleven hours in flight time, so two appropriate meals are served depending on the time of flight including snacks such as pot noodles available upon request whenever you please.
Cathay Pacific economy seats have thirty two inches in pitch and eighteen inches in width, it incorporates many of the standard amenities other airlines of similar standard embodies. The usual requirements of a table, seat pocket, personal light, air, armrest and entertainment system are built in. However the product that Cathay Pacific applies that I believe is overlooked by other airlines is the cup holder because if you only have a beverage there is no need to pull down the whole tray table giving more space to manoeuvre. Another aspect that I love in this seat is the long amenity holder just under the screen which can hold many of your personal belongings such as phones, tablets, books and many more. In my opinion this rack is more useful for your personal belongings than your seat pocket. A USB is also built in next to the screen which is another added bonus however the product I always believe is useless in any economy product is the coat hanger because it is used very little and if it is used it is usually not affective and will also affect your leg space. All their products seem very robust and I have never experienced a faulty one.
In this specific eleven hour flight you are served two meals, one just after take-off and the other just before landing with cup noodles and beverages available upon request at anytime of the flight. The meals are not overly amazing but is delicious and does the job. You are given a choice which usually consist of a chicken, fish, beef with either rice, noodles, potatoes and others. A salad, bread, water bottle and bread will be on your tray already but sometimes your desert which is usually a small tub of Haagen Dazs ice cream is given after. I have to say the food is delicious however pretty small.
Cathay Pacific’s premium economy product is similar to that of their main economy tier but with enhanced comfort. It is in a separate cabin in a 2-4-2 configuration. Firstly their seat have an added six inches in their seat pitch making it a total of 38 inches, the seat is also 1 inch wider than that of economy class making it a total of 19.5 inches.
Premium economy gets an upgraded baggage allowance and upon entering the aircraft you are given an amenity kit and a welcome drink which you don’t receive on the main economy cabin. Noise cancelling headphones is given instead of the basic ones and blankets and pillows seem a bit larger.
Majority of the products that are incorporated in economy are also applied in premium economy but with a few added items and characteristics. Firstly there is a footrest applied and a larger recline for added comfort. Furthermore a centre console between each seats is built for a more personal affect it is also used to incorporate a beverage holder in which there is also an extension if needed. The entertainment screen is 10 inches which is around 1 inch larger than that of the lower class and two charging methods with either a universal or USB socket.
The meals were a little different from economy, firstly you were given a nice menu instead of a boring small card which is a nice touch. You are usually also offered three options, I believe the tray including the bread, salads and condiments is from economy but the main meal is taken from business, but don’t quote me on that because im not too sure.

Cathay Pacific Hong Kong’s flag carrier and one of the members of the ‘Oneworld Alliance’. Cathay was founded in 1946 and was initially based in Shanghai however the two owners an American and Australian moved to Hong Kong where the airline was further established. It was said the that the owners though of the name ‘Cathay Pacific’ in the bar at ‘Manila Hotel’.
To date (2018) Cathay Pacific has a strong fleet of 146 made of both Airbus and Boeing aircraft.
I often use Cathay Pacific in some of my travels to the Philippines and back, this route stops over and changes in Hong Kong International airport as it is not direct, meaning two flights are taken each way. Apart from the flight duration and meals both journeys to Hong Kong and the Philippines have similarities, both routes usually use the 777-300 with identical products and services inflight.
At the airport
Hong Kong international airport terminal 1 is Cathay Pacific’s home and main hub. It is a massive structure where arrivals is situated in the ground floor whilst departures a few floors above. The airport incorporates isle type sections in the check-in desks and Cathay Pacific uses three of them (isles A-C from my memory).
Aircraft and Flight
Cathay Pacific is one of my most favoured airline for a longhaul flights to and from Asia as it gives desirable experiences for a relatively competitive price all year round. Furthermore the airline flies from London Heathrow to Hong Kong about five times a day, whilst Hong Kong to Manila six to seven times a day so your preference in departures, arrivals and transit times range from a multitude of choices. Moreover the airline has consistency in their products and services which is great for frequent travellers who just want confidence in their flight.
As the two routes trips I make have a few differences ive decided to write these under two different posts please click to see:
Cathay Pacific is a reputable airline worthy for a frequent flyer with a medium budget who wants to fly with the confidence in his or her flight, although not highly amazing their consistency in products and service is applaudable. Cathay Pacific is not my overall favourite airline but is my preferred carrier when travelling long-haul into Asia. Their seats are comfortable and gives me everything I need to ensure maximum comfortability. Whilst the meals small they were undeniably delicious and you can taste that they didn’t go cheap in their ingredients. Furthermore their staff are friendly and do their jobs to the very best of their ability, there are no loud personal conversations whilst in front of customers.
Overall Cathay gets and has always got a thumbs up from me. A plausible airline that is affordable and brilliant in its operation.

I used Avianca whilst on my South America trip in a night flight from Lima to Rio de Janeiro.
Aircraft and Flight
My flight from Lima to Rio De Janiero used a small Airbus A319 in a 3-3 configuration. The aircraft did incorporate a business class which was divided using a simple curtain assembly, it looked nice however I cant write about it because I flew on economy.
Firstly I’d like to start off with something I was not too keen on and that was the Cabin crew’s uniform. It had a red cloak styled jacket with a red cloche styled hat which was designed by a famous Columbian designer. The uniform has had many praise from other fellow bloggers, however for me it was too fancy for a flight (my personal opinion).
The economy seats were similar to that of any other standard airline, it had a cup holder, magazine pouch, foldable table, personal light and air. The seat was leather with adjustable headrest which I always appreciate in an aircraft. Furthermore seats had an entertainment system which for some strange reason I didn’t think they had as it was a small aircraft. Come to think of it this flight was the smallest aircraft I know with screens incorporated in it.
Avianca’s entertainment system was (along with ICE of Emirates) one of the most comprehensive and pleasing I have ever experienced. Its program and controls were very tidy and easy to navigate around in which even the freshest user wont struggle. Firstly the airline’s promotional videos upon boarding, taxiing and before each movies were amazing, short pleasing clips of tourism in South America which makes people want to travel to the destinations in the future. Secondly one thing that I quickly acknowledged that was pretty impressive was the entertainment system’s front, starting or home page whatever you call it. It was easy to use and understand no matter where you have come from with the upfront choice of languages. Furthermore the division of the adults and children’s menu, I found very plausible. The entertainment catalogue have a comprehensive choice of the latest most notable tv shows, movies and music from Latin America, Europe and the US, so it wont be too difficult for each passengers to be entertained.
My service in Avianca was simple, it was a night 5 hour flight so we only got one meal service. The meal was simple with only a few things to eat including a salad, main dish (chicken and rice), bread roll and a sweater bread I can only think is a traditional desert of some kind, obviously including the normal choice of beverages. The meals were delicious but you can taste the simplicity of the dishes, there were no elaborate ingredients and there was very little to eat so it wont fill you if you was very hungry.
After the meal service, as it was a night flight the main lights were switched off or dimmed I can only guess for sleep. Before landing cabin crew gives the relevant immigration cards for ease in arrivals.
Avianca to me was neutral it had its goods and it had its bad, the biggest positive for me was the entertainment system, a brilliant program with many enjoyable films from western to Latin America, the ease of use was brilliant. The meal for me was a bit of a disappointment it was very simple, small and untidy in its presentation. However ive only flown with the airline once in a single route so I don’t know its consistency with its other routes. Its a fine airline to fly with and I would definitely try them again.

JetStar Japan which started operation on 2012 is the Japanese affiliate of the JetStar group. The Low cost airline which has a fleet of 24 flies 11 Japanese domestic routes but only 4 international flights to Hong Kong, Shanghai (China), Manila (Philippines) and Taipei (Taiwan). JetStar Japan is a joint venture between the Qantas Group, JAL, Mitsubishi corporation and the Tokyo century corporation.
I have only taken this airline once in a 3 hour one way trip from Manila to Osaka.
Aircraft and Flight
I believe all JetStar Japans aircraft are an Airbus A320 and its products inside are very basic and plain such as its seats, tables, lighting and even colour theme. The aircraft wasn’t the cleanest and tidiest ive flown on, I had a window seat and it was very greasy whilst the magazines and leaflets (including safety leaflet) were worn and folded. It is a budget airline so I expected the bare minimum service. Food and drinks needed to be purchased which was understandable for a low cost airlines.
However the thing that surprised me the most and made the flight was its crew, the best ive seen from all carriers ive flown on. Their respect for the elderly was magnificent, and I consistently saw them assist the elderly from their seat and escort them to the toilet in which they would not leave the area until the person is finished which they will then escort them back to their seat. A simple act like that was brilliant and adds many admiration from me.
My single JetStar Japan experience was short and simple. It had what you would expect from a budget/ low cost airline. The biggest positive I witnessed in this airline, is their care and service for the elderly,, it was just really nice and uplifting to see. Other than their service there was not much to be negative or positive about, for travellers with a tight budget this airline is a good choice.

DXB > MNL > DXB
I believe all of the flights flying to and from Manila uses the Boeing 777-300ER aircraft. They incorporate a 2 class cabin with only economy and business classes. The flight is usually takes 7 hours without the time at the airports taxiing.
The economy class product is similar to that of the LHR to DXB route (A380). The product and service is thankfully the same high quality as the other sectors, the differences will probably be its food which usually contemplates the flights origin or destination. click here for the London to Dubai route
The business class in this sector a 777 is different to that of the A380 or London route. Although the tier still incorporates a convertible leather flat bed product, the cabin has a 2-3-2 configuration where all seats are in rows and parallel to each other. The business class in this flight has less privacy than that of the A380 due to the fact you sit next to another passenger rather than an amenity/ storage section like that of the A380. However it is not uncomfortable and still very spacious. The only negative is if you sit next to a window or middle isle you may have to jump over your neighbour to go to the toilets if he or she is sleeping. Your seat will have a shoe rack, your meal menu and a water bottle, you will not have a portable device like the London routes. As you arrive you will be served a beverage such as champagne, juice or soda’s. I have never received an amenity kit in this sector, so I believe its just not included with this route.
The service in this specific flight is similar to that of the London flight. There is two dining service with a snack just before landing. You get a 3 course meal served one by one with an endless offering of warm bread, wine and champagne throughout. All food was delicious and you can taste that they did not go cheap on ingredients. The flight attendant will set your table for you, she will place a white table cloth and then give you a ready prepared tray with your cutlery, towel, condiments, salad and more. All tableware is of high quality and nothing was plastic.
The 777 does not incorporate an onboard lounge as there is not enough space, instead there is a small table in which after take off, is used to put snacks for passengers to grab at their own accord should they wish to roam around. However the service is consistently the same as that of the A380 London route.
LON > DXB > LON
The majority of flights to and from London uses the Airbus A380. The economy class is usually at the lower level of the aircraft whilst the premium classes are at the second floor. Emirates always boasts multi national cabin crews with many different languages available which is very good for customer service.
The economy class product in Emirates has its characteristics which take them above its competitors. Firstly their seats which are in a 3-4-3 configuration are the same as many of their competitors with a standard recline, leg space, reading light, air and an adjustable headrest. A pillow, blanket and a headphone will already be placed on your seat.
The thing that stands out for me is their Entertainment system named ICE (Information, Communication and Entertainment) which is on all tiers and classes, although different sized screens for the different tiers off course. Through ICE you can watch the largest collection of movies and shows from many different locations and many different genres. Furthermore you are also able to monitor your flight through different cameras placed on their aircraft and with a advanced flight map. ICE has the best and the most latest movies and shows than any other airlines I have ever been on. Other than ice the seats also incorporate USB chargers, a three point headphone socket and a remote even though their screens are touch screen.
Their service in economy is also desirable, upon arrival passengers are given hot towels, landing cards and kids are given goody bags. In this specific flight passengers are usually given a full meal and a lighter snack, both of which are served at favourable times. You are also able to request pot noodles and drinks at any time 30 minutes after take-off and 30 minutes before landing.
Emirates have no premium economy class, but is said to be planning to incorporate it in the future to compete with its competitors.
The business class product on this flight is special and the reason for returning to this airline almost yearly. Like many modern airlines, Emirates incorporates a convertible seat and flat-bed product in a 1-2-1 configuration. Each leather seating area is spacious with an amenity section which includes a mini bar, desk, portable device and storages right next to you. Furthermore there is shoe storage under the footrest and even more storage (good enough for laptop bags) next to the window with the standard overhead bins still built above, making the the seating excessively rich in storage. The seats are set in an alternating configuration whereas the person ahead or behind you is never directly parallel to you. I usually sit in a window seat (me next to the window) whilst the amenities next to the isle giving me a bit more privacy.
Again the entertainment system was special, all of the brilliant functions that were available on economy are available in business, but can be controlled using the extra portable device which each seats have. This portable device can be used to monitor flight progress, adjust the seat, lighting and much more. Furthermore the seats have a 32 inch screen which is one of the largest in the world, you are also provided with noise cancelling headphones, but I always op to use my own.
The service in business class is also remarkable right from the very start (at the airport), through entering the aircraft and for the duration of the flight. Upon entering the aircraft you are greeted by a flight attendant at the door who will guide you to your seat and along the way to your seat, attendants are cleverly placed throughout the aircraft to assist. Once settled an attendant (if not busy) will approach you and brief you on the features of the seat, service and cabin. Another attendant will go around the cabin offering a choice of welcome drinks such as juices, water or champagne with a brief description of the menu for the flight. You are also given a Bvlgari amenity kit which I believe changes design every 6 months, there is a separate for the kits for the sexes which include basic toiletries such as toothbrush, tooth paste, shave, comb, tissue, a Bvlgari cologne and many more. A great experience, and the flight hasn’t even left the ground.
Right after take off you are given more beverages with assorted warm nuts and at this time they will also take your order for dinner service (or whatever you are served in your flight). You will then have plenty of time to relax or roam the Emirates inflight bar lounge. The bar is out of this world, you may order any drinks and nibbles. A friendly bar person is always available and they are open to conversing. The crew at the onboard lounge are very receptive and will allow you to take pictures, go behind the bar and even teach you a few recipes.
At the meal services you are given a fulfilling 3 course meal, the starter and main you ordered earlier and a comprehensive choice of desert. All courses are served separately and you are able to request for warm bread, wine (or other beverages) at any point of the meal although frequent rounds are made by the cabin crew anyway. Your table will be set by one of the cabin crews taking your table out, placing the table cloth and giving the ready set trays including the condiments, salad, butter, cutlery ect. One of best curries I have ever tasted was onboard, I don’t know what the dish was called but it incredible I have never since found any curry like it.
After meals its time to relax, the seats can be converted into any angle you desire. You are also offered to use duvets if you wish but I always op to just rest on the already comfortable seats.
Finally just before landing you are given towels to freshen up and a ‘Fast Track’ card in order to pass through the airport quicker whether transit or arrivals. Should your aircraft be parked on a stand rather than a gate you will be transferred to the terminal on a special business class shuttle, whereas its interior is amazing all passengers get their own leather seat nobody stands.
Overall using Emirates into Dubai is an experience not to be missed, it is 6 hours flight that you wish to be a little longer no matter whether travelling economy or business. The airline deserves its premium reputation and definitely has a fan in me, in my opinion a five star airline through and through.
I have been to the ‘Emirates Business Lounge’ at Dubai international airport four times and twice at their Heathrow lounge. Although I paid for some of my business tickets, my ‘Skywards Silver card’ gave me free access to the lounge at its Dubai hub even though I was travelling in an economy ticket. Although the Heathrow lounge is only exclusive for those with business or first class tickets and not silver skyward holders.
London Heathrow Lounge
Emirates lounge in Heathrow terminal 3 is situated between departure gates 5 and 7. It is directly connected to the departure gates that the airline departs from so you can board the aircraft straight from the comfort of the lounge.
The facility was incredible, it had everything you would expect from a business class lounge but to the highest standard even though this is an outstation. First thing you notice once entering is the view of the runway and aircraft (one of which is your flight). Moreover quality leather seats complete with tea tables are appropriately placed facing the view, giving a private peaceful, relaxing ambience to start your journey. On either side of the lounge there will be dining areas whereas the left side is notable for light snacks whilst the right side having a buffet for heavier meals. These sections will also include the beverage areas, in which you will be spoilt with a comprehensive selection of the most notable brands of champagne, beers, wines, coffee, tea, juices and even the water which is Voss.
A good selection of magazines and newspapers from local and foreign publishers are also available. However I do not think that you are allowed to take them to the aircraft with you.
There are also quiet business areas hidden at the back but I believe the essence of this lounge was to relax and not to work. Attendants at all corners of the lounge was ever present whether cleaning, refilling or taking care of passengers which was really good to see. The whole ambience of this lounge is plush although you feel comfortable enough to make yourself feel at home.
The Emirates business class lounge which is separate from their first class is something out of the ordinary. Each concourse of the Dubai International Airport (DXB) A, B and C has separate lounge. All the lounges has its own floor above the common area and spans each end of the terminal.
Firstly all I can say is that the lounge is a world of its own. What isn’t there?
As you reach the reception to the lounge you are surrounded by pure extravagance. You are firstly checked in by one of their receptionist and upon entry they remind you of your flight and gate, they also warn you that there is no flight calls and that each individual is to watch their own time.
Once going through the reception you can roam anywhere you want, but you are always directed to the area nearest to your gate. You will be spoilt for tables, seats and sofas to relax all of which are high quality. Every single detail is top notch from plants to the lighting all gave the classy ambience of this place and as the lounge is so large you will never need to sit next to another passenger if you don’t want to.
Numerous snacks and dining areas are available, there is a help yourself buffet with huge selection for all types of diets. Only problem I found as a lone traveller is that I had to leave my bag unaccompanied whilst getting my food, a bag drop would’ve been nice but I guess I cant ask too much. A smoking section is also available openly connected in one of the furthest point of the lounge and quiet surprisingly not in a confined room but just like the rest of the lounge plenty of seats, tables, sofas and its own dining facility.
Dining in any lounge is not the best, and you should never expect restaurant quality. The food (buffet) are laid out in a beautiful way, it is frequently cleaned, refilled and topped-up by the very consistent staff. There is plenty of food and drinks from around the world from rice dishes, salads, curries but for me although very delicious some food can be cold, hard, wet or oily (not all the time) but don’t be put off as dining here is still superb. The Emirates lounge also offers Haagen Daz ice cream, Costa coffee and many of the best alcoholic brands from around the world so if you want a cheeky drink before your flight just know your going to get the best. If you think something you want is unavailable, just ask the staff because they might just have it.
Other facilities in the lounge include business and children areas. The business area had booths some with computers and some empty which I can only imagine it to be for personal laptops, there was a meeting room but I cant remember if there was printing and scanning devices. I didn’t go inside the childrens area but from the outside you can see computers, gaming consoles and small play areas, so if you manage to go with your family you can leave the kids there ad enjoy your own time.
There are also places to freshen up apart from the toilets there is also a showering facility for use. Toilets are also above average, the cubicle are separated floor to sealing meaning optimum privacy whilst the washing area have free disposable toothbrush, combs, shave and towels nicely arranged. An attendant is also always present in the toilets keeping them clean and tidy. There is also shoe shining stands if you are someone who needs to look the part. Finally if you have a long wait till your next flight there are also very private napping areas, little booths which include blankets pillows and blindfold packets.
In conclusion the Emirates lounge in DXB airport is like being in a whole new airport specially for premium customers. The layout and design is carefully thought out and you can see they have invested highly for such an astonishing facility with great furniture artwork and services. Staff are ever present even at midnight which is reassuring for passengers. Heathrow’s lounge is also amazing, its strategic location and views are remarkable and again the furniture and decoration give a very luxurious feel. Overall the Emirates lounge gives their passengers the smooth and comforting journey ahead or in transit, business passengers are able to work conveniently whilst holiday makers can start to enjoy their holiday at the airport. Everything in the premises have utmost quality and character consistent with the overall airline.

During our regular Passenger Flights
How long are flights?
On average, passenger flights are approximately one hour in length. Flights can vary from 45 minutes to 90 minutes depending on wind conditions, the temperature of the air, and when the pilot finds a suitable landing field.
What time of day do the flights take place?
Flights take place at sunrise and approximately 2 hours prior to sunset. Hot air balloons are not able to fly freely in the middle of the day due to thermal activity, which makes the air unstable. Tethered rides can take place throughout the day depending on wind.
What type of weather conditions are needed to fly?
Hot air balloon passenger flights typically take place in winds less than 8 knots, with no rain or approaching storms in the immediate area. Flights also require visibility of at least 2 miles.
What type of clothing should I wear?
No special clothing is required for hot air ballooning. We suggest practical and comfortable apparel, including long pants, a light jacket, and an optional hat. We do not fly high enough for a significant change in temperature, so plan to dress for the temperature of the day.
Can I take pictures and videos?
Yes! Feel free to bring your cell phone or other cameras and get shots of the amazing views. Just don't drop them!
Can I get the additional video and pictures of my flight from outside the balloon?
Yes, your celebration host will take many shots of you as the balloon inflates and prepares to launch and provide them as part of your main flight package.
How can I purchase the additional footage?
Payment can be made through PayPal, Venmo, a check to the company, or another option at your convenience. Our videographer will reach out to you after the flight to help you with the options.
How can I create a Tethered Balloon Event?
You can have a tether ride anywhere in Connecticut and at any time of the day if the wind is less than 5 knots at event time. Please contact us for our availability and location analysis.
How can I reserve a Private Hot Air Balloon Ride?
Simply purchase the Private Hot Air Balloon Ride gift certificate first, and then we will manually reserve a date/time over the phone.
Where do we meet?
The take-off location depends on the weather condition, but is most frequently Toutant Airport in Woodstock, CT. We will notify you about your specific take-off location a day before your flight.
All tickets are prepaid in full and are non-refundable. We do understand that sometimes passengers situations change and they no longer can or wish to use their balloon ride tickets. For this reason, the tickets are transferable. If you wish to transfer your ticket to another party, please ensure their health or ability is not restricted. Simply let us know to whom you have transferred the ticket and we will adjust our records so they can schedule it.
