I want to write as many trips as possible. In the last few months, I have written reviews of trips to Hawaii, Europe, and the Maldives. The introduction post for my next trip is currently under way. We are in Europe for the entire month of June. There are a lot of interesting hotel and flight reviews coming.

Why we decided to travel to Europe

We spend a lot of time in Europe in the summer. It is nice to leave as the temperatures get warmer. I like seeing my family when I have the chance.

We are spending most of June in France, Germany, Greece, and Sweden for a variety of reasons.

We had a few commitments in Europe throughout the month and flying back and forth just didn't make sense with the current state of travel

Sylt, Germany, is one of the places that my mom likes the most. Since she is still alive and hanging in there, we were happy to go with her. Sylt is amazing and we are so happy we did.

The airlines we’re flying

What flight reviews can you expect?

  • I’ll review Emirates’ A380 first class between New York and Milan; as I’ve already explained, we took this flight because our friend Toby was the purser, and he’s retiring from Emirates soon, so we were thrilled to have one more chance to fly with him
  • I don’t yet know how we’re returning to the United States, so we’ll see what I can come up with there
  • I’ll have several intra-Europe flight and lounge reviews, ranging from SWISS’ A320 business class, to Lufthansa’s E190 business class, to Condor’s A321 business class, to the Library Lounge Nice, to the SWISS Alpine Lounge Zurich, to the Sylt Lounge Westerland (which might just be the most interesting of the bunch)

The hotels we’re staying at

We are on the ground in Europe and I will be publishing a lot of hotel reviews.

  • Hotel Martinez Cannes, which is a Hyatt Unbound Collection property
  • Airelles Saint-Tropez, Château de la Messardière; many will remember our amazing stay at Airelles Courchevel earlier this year, so we were curious if the Saint-Tropez property could live up to that standard (that’s going to be an interesting review)
  • Hyatt Regency Zurich Airport The Circle, which is easily one of the best airport hotels I’ve ever stayed at
  • The Wellem Dusseldorf, which is a Hyatt Unbound Collection property
  • King George Athens, which is a Marriott Luxury Collection property
  • Hotel Grand Bretange Athens, which is a Marriott Luxury Collection property

One of the first things we did in Sylt was rent anAirbnb, and I will be sharing my thoughts on that.

This trip isn't fully planned yet, and we're just going with the flow, but that should give you an overview of some of the reviews to expect There are a lot of points hotels and one brand that I really like.

Bottom line

We are in Europe for the month of June and are having a great time. It is time to start the trip report series because I have a lot of content to publish. I hope there is something for everyone here.
