I’ve enjoyed my first significant trip in over 18 months: Using Verifly to manage all of the covid-related requirements worked really smoothly and airlines were happy to review the app during check in. Wearing masks all through my flights was a real chore. I experienced the new BA Club World suite for the first time […]

Even though I emailed the valet team the previous day, my car wasn’t prepared for me at T5 M&G, so I was walked to where it had been stored. No apparent issue with the car considering the alarm went off on the day I dropped it and the window was reported as not being closed […]

When I got to T7, I checked in with BA who gave me new boarding passes. The AA boarding passes won’t work with TSA Pre-Check for some reason, even though the TSA Pre-Check isn’t much to talk about in T7. I’ve never understood why they don’t implement it properly. Security was a joke as usual, […]

That special place is of course Starbucks in the Tom Bradley International Terminal (TBIT). When I got there the queue was enormous and the staff seemed to be working really slowly. I thought I would end up using all of the available 2 hours (before my next flight) queueing for a coffee! Luckily things seemed […]

I ordered an Uber at 5:30pm – I always get to the point of thinking I may as well get on my way. Why wait any longer? Glad I did. The Uber was fine and got me to the airport at around 6pm. I headed to AA check in since I couldn’t check in online […]

Good quality sleep I did get, but just for about 4 hours or so. I was wide awake at midnight and decided to do some covid tests and see whether I could check in for my flights back home. By the time I had stopped messing around it was coming on for 4am and that […]

I woke at around 2am which wasn’t too bad for me. Earliest Starbucks to open is 4am and is the one I have visited a few times, normally on a walk to Diamondhead. That was the first planned event for the day. This was my rest day so I needed to take it easy! 😊 […]
