Here are some photos of my recent stay at Acqualin Here are some photos of my recent stay at Acqualina Resort & Residences On The Beach in the Greater Miami area. Swipe right for more photos.

The award-winning Forbes Five Star, AAA Five Diamond property is situated on 400 feet (120 m) of pristine white sands on Sunny Isles Beach, an upscale Miami suburb. The resort’s unobstructed views create a unique, sea-level experience as the lush green gardens effortlessly succumb to the sand. Guests enjoy expansive amenities, including three oceanfront swimming pools, three restaurants, a tranquil spa, and a marine-biology-inspired kids’ program. The resort’s opulent design is inspired by the surf and sand, along with the Atlantic Ocean and intracoastal views that captivate guests as they enter their accommodation.

Have you ever stayed at @AcqualinaResort? If so, what was your experience?

Here are some photos of my recent flight in Busine Here are some photos of my recent flight in Business Class from Frankfurt to Miami onboard a @Lufthansa Boeing 747-8. Swipe right for more photos!

Flying the Boeing 747 – dubbed the Queen of the Sky – is always an epic experience and Lufthansa is one of the last remaining airlines in the world that still flies this aircraft type, with 27 Boeing 747s in its fleet. The Boeing 747 has been a bestseller with airlines: between the first 747 flight on February 9th 1969 and the end of the 747 production line last year, Boeing has built 1,560 B747 aircraft. The 747-8 is the latest, quieter, more economical, and more environmentally friendly version of the famous aircraft type. The B747-8 features similar engines & cockpit technology as the Boeing 787 Dreamliner. It is also the world’s longest airplane with a fuselage length of 251 feet (77 m).

But while the Boeing 747 is a marvel of technology (I always feel privileged to fly on one), Lufthansa’s Business Class does not match the grandeur of its flagship aircraft. The cabin configuration (2-2-2 on the lower deck and 2-2 on the upper deck), the lack of privacy as well as the mediocre amenities are disappointing and way behind most of the carrier’s Business Class competitors. The good news is that Lufthansa will introduce a new Business Class seat and cabin layout by next year, so that’s something to look forward to!

Yes! I am so excited to fly this @Lufthansa Boeing Yes! I am so excited to fly this @Lufthansa Boeing 747-8, the Queen of the Sky and IMHO, the most beautiful aircraft ever built.
