Eyeing the New Microsoft Surface Pro 3 as a Laptop Replacement

Join Vagabondish on Twitter and Facebook.

We really are in the golden age of travel technology. I’m sure I’ll look back on that statement in ten years – or two – and laugh. But the combination of portability and power of today’s laptops and mobile devices is almost absurd. While I’d love to free myself from the constant tether of the […]

Qantas First Class Lounge LAX Now Open

The new Tom Bradley International Terminal at LAX is arguably the most gorgeous airport terminal in the United States. It also features some of the nicest shared lounges, like the Star Alliance First & Business Class Lounge.

The business class section of the Qantas/oneworld lounge opened within the past six months. It's a lovely business class lounge, though as a first class passenger it not exactly exciting.

The Qantas First Class Lounge LAX officially opens today, Thursday, December 18, 2014.
