After igniting his passion for award travel while planning his honeymoon, Ian now enjoys using points and miles to see the world with his wife and three internationally adopted kiddos. He loves dissecting loyalty programs to find maximum value. His goal is to demonstrate that extraordinary travel is possible for the ordinary family. When he's not chronicling his latest adventures with his kids, you might catch him musing over the ever-changing travel industry or complaining about the woes of regional flights.

20 Business Class Experiences: My Rankings

I didn't include any recliner business class in my rankings. I'm only counting long-haul products, or ones that could easily be long-haul if they were installed on an aircraft that could fly that distance. Overall, I tried to balance hard product (i.e. seat) with an overall picture of the soft product (i.e. service and catering). There is certainly some subjectivity based on my own experience and preferences.

Pristina: My Experience Visiting the Capital of Kosovo

When I mention Kosovo, many people don't know where it is. If they do, they immediately associate it with the war at the end of the 1990s. Although the country has been stable for a couple decades, it's not a typical tourist destination. Small, landlocked, and without any postcard-worthy city skylines or well-known history, it has only a few hundred thousand foreign visitors each year.

The jet lag is always rough the first couple days in Europe. But I don't let it stop me. With only two days in Copenhagen, I want to experience as much of the Danish capital as I can. From historic castles and palaces to the famous Nyhavn, I fill my day with the city's best sites as I brave the winter chill of a January visit.
