Avoid Alitalia! Air One - the Lufthansa-operated airline that we love! Modern aircraft, friend and professional staff, punctual & awesome lounges. A trustworthy, easy-to-use website and booking engine. Serves many domestic destinations as well as UK (London City Airport/LCY), Spain, Austria, Denmark & France.
Great restaurants that you've never heard of, the politics of consumption, explorations of cultures through their food customs and some of the most interesting people who devote their lives to various elements of the food supply.

Savvy Traveller's favourite airline, serving the great Pacific Northwest. It operates an eclectic mix of piston Beavers and turbine Otters and Caravans, landing passengers on glaciers, lakes and harbors among the mist-shrouded fjords and islands of the U.S. and Canadian northwest. Savvy Traveller rates Kenmore Air's pilots as some of the most skilled and friendliest in the world! It was founded in 1946 by three high school friends. Scheduled and charter service with a focus on the Seattle-Victoria route. A great way to admire the San Juan Islands.
