SAM CHUI Aviation and Travel

What’s my top choice for an aircraft? I get asked this frequently. The answer is the Boeing 747, often called the Queen of the Skies. It holds a special place in my heart and has always been my favorite. This iconic Jumbo Jet has truly made the world feel smaller and has opened the door for my adventures in global travel. I have a deep love for all things related to aviation and travel. My interest in airplanes began when I visited Kai Tak Airport as a teenager. Some of my happiest memories are from being up in the air. That incredible sensation of soaring above the clouds, along with the excitement and wonder of flying, has fueled my passion for aviation and exploration.
