"My team and I are always evaluating price, best routes, reliability, and the quality of onboard experience," Tumpowsky shares. "Right now we love Delta's new international business class and new lounges, Qatar's Q Suite, and Emirates' Game Changer first class suite." “We monitor our clients’ flights on a daily basis so that we can find the best solutions when there are cancellations or schedule changes," he adds. As the world returns to the new normal, most international carriers have put new aircraft into service, improved their service, and increased their reach and frequency. “Advising our clients on the right options allows them to reach farther destinations more easily," he says.
