Каково это получить семейный апгрейд до бизнес-класса в United Polaris

Описание: Let Erin and Phil book this same experience for you, personally! We started ABC Trips to offer our bespoke itineraries to those seeking authentic culture, epic landscapes, and uncompromising luxury. 👉🏼 https://abctrips.com

We just finished another whirlwind tour of Southeast Asia that took us to the Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam. And our travel day back to the US started in Hanoi yesterday and took us into Bangkok where we spent the night before catching our flight from Bangkok to here in Tokyo. The next leg of this journey is from Tokyo to San Francisco and we're really hoping that we're gonna get upgraded to the United Polaris business class. If you're not familiar with Polaris, think the private pods with lie-flat seats. It's a game-changer and on a long flight like this (9.5 hours), it may make a huge difference.

We’re the Lockwoods.

Since 2020, we’ve been traveling the world to experience—up close and in person—all the natural wonders and distinct cultures that our kids would otherwise see only in textbooks and TV. We think it’s a better way to learn and we’ve worked hard to fund our little experiment in the hope that our kids will grow up wiser, kinder, and more grateful for the beauty of our diverse planet and its people.

In 2025, we started ABC Trips to help travelers experience the world the way we do—deeply, intentionally, and without the stress of figuring everything out alone.

After years of full-time travel, expedition cruising, luxury hotels, and once-in-a-lifetime experiences with our family, we realized something: the hardest part of epic travel isn’t the destination—it’s the decisions. Which ship actually gets you more time on the ice? Which safari lodge delivers real wildlife encounters? Which “bucket list” experiences are worth the money… and which are just hype?

ABC Trips exists to cut through the noise. We plan and host thoughtfully curated journeys built around firsthand experience, honest recommendations, and moments that actually move the needle—whether that’s setting foot on Antarctica, tracking wildlife in Africa, or discovering cultures in a way that feels human, not herded.
