China Airlines is Taiwan’s largest airline, known for its friendly service and solid network of routes across Asia and beyond. The airline has over 15 Airbus A350s in its fleet (some of them with the ex-SAS Business cabin) and was recognized several times for their comfort and high standards of service.

SAS continues to make headlines with updates and offers for EuroBonus members, and now SkyTeam fellow travelers. From groundbreaking new routes, such as the first-ever nonstop service between Copenhagen and Seoul, to extended benefits like the Amex 2-for-1 voucher deadline, there’s no shortage of news. Let’s dive into the highlights and make the most of the program before wrapping up the year!

JetBlue Airways has announced plans to launch a new domestic first-class product, known as “Mini Mint”, beginning in 2026. The introduction of this premium cabin is part of JetBlue’s strategy to get some marketshare of the growing demand for more comfortable travel options on domestic routes.

American Airlines is making it easier than ever to enjoy its AAdvantage program in 2025! For the second year in a row, status and reward levels remain unchanged, keeping it simple to achieve or retain your perks. Here’s the lowdown on what’s new and what stays awesome:

For the second leg of my EuroBonus Millionaire challenge, I had to fly with Virgin Atlantic. I saw some extremely low fares (that counted towards the promotion) from New York to London, with a quick stop at Washington Dulles (IAD).

Right after the arrival of the first flight of my SAS EuroBonus Millionaire challenge, I had the chance to pay a long visit to the newly opened Delta One Lounge (flagship lounge) at New York JFK. The lounge was opened in July 2024, with only 3 of these opened so far (LAX and one more launching in Boston BOS on December 11). I was blown away by its comfort, level of service, and services provided.

Since 2024, Delta has operated their A330-900neo with Delta One Suites on their daily nonstop service from Buenos Aires (EZE) to New York (JFK), which makes perfect sense as the route is nearly 11 hours and serves plenty of business travelers between the two cosmopolitan cities.

LATAM Airlines is set to revolutionize its LATAM Pass loyalty program in 2025 with the launch of LATAM Pass Bonuses, a new way to personalize the experience for its frequent flyers. This system lets members select additional benefits when they reach Qualifying Points milestones without impacting their progress toward new Elite categories.

Flying in Business Class with Turkish Airlines is a luxurious experience that combines comfort and excellent service. Turkish Airlines operates an extensive network, flying to more destinations worldwide than any other airline. This expansive reach and strategically located Istambul (IST) airport make them a popular choice for business travelers and frequent flyers alike.

The LATAM Group’s subsidiaries in Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, and Paraguay (excluding LATAM Chile) and Aerolíneas Argentinas have signed codeshare agreements that promise to revolutionize air connectivity in South America. This new agreement will enable both airlines to offer a smoother travel experience with greater benefits for frequent flyers.
