    Merry Christmas Rob

    It’s a London Christmas for me because I’m working right through until Sunday, but I’m popping over to Dublin on Wednesday to start my ex Dub business class trip that you showed us all.

    DUB-LHR (overnight in my bed)
    LHR-EWR (new years Eve at the Crowne Plaza Times Square as part of a 23 h stopover. Bought the miles in a recent sale you featured for less than a night at a motel in brooklyn)
    JFK-LAX-HNL
    1 week in hawaii then a cash fare to LAS
    1 week in LAS
    LAS-LGW
    see if I make it to Heathrow for my final leg to Dublin.

    Rob, Merry Christmas.

    Thanks for all your advice over the last two years, not away for Christmas but January Club to Sydney, Melbourne, Hong Kong with return in First.

    Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to Rob and all fellow HFP’ers 🙂 Many thanks to Rob and everyone for the articles, tips, and tricks!

    Spending Christmas and New Year in Scandinavia and looking forward to a heap of trips over the coming 12 months, mixture of redemptions and great value earning runs 🙂

    All the best
    Thomas

    Merry Christmas Rob, and to your family. Thanks for so many tips and very useful articles during 2015!

    Rob, thank you for your suggestions and guidance. My first year, now an avid HfP follower. Next year is our 25th wedding anniversary, we were planning to visit Rome but having realised we could perhaps go slightly further afield, we’re now flying business to SIN (and on to Indonesia for 3 weeks) using a BA 241 (and a GUF2). All for one Avios World Plus run). Abbreviations I’d never heard of until this year! The Supercard also saved us a few pennies in South Africa earlier this year, and continues to do so elsewhere. Thanks again for your brilliant work and suggestions, best wishes for 2016.
