Hotel Review: Holiday Inn Singapore Orchid City Centre
On a recent trip, I had the opportunity to stay at the Holiday Inn Singapore Orchid City Centre. It had a great location and a good price point in case you are looking for a business hotel and not a luxury hotel in Singapore. Here is my stay experience and review.

When will Air India fix its planes?
It is a little bit sad to see the state of affairs at Air India being as messy as I saw earlier this week when I flew them.
