Every year there tends to be a route that offers good value for money when chasing BA Executive Club Tier Points (TPs). For a while now, Sofia (SOF) has been a great place to earn (relatively) low cost TPs.

At the tube station, I only had to wait for one minute for a train to arrive and then it was a short walk back to the HGI at Hatton Cross to pay for my parking and for me to get in the car to drive home.

I had a good wander around the terminal building, well, the departures level anyway - I couldn't be bothered going down to one of the lounges. As I understand it, they are not much to write home about anyway.

The final segment of my exciting TP run to Sofia and back starts today, but it didn't get off to a great start!

I had a quick wander around the terminal and it was quite busy - busier than it was two weeks ago. I am not sure the bars were open last time I was here.

After arriving at Heathrow T3, I headed straight up to Fast Track Security which was empty, so there was no delay heading through the the new 3D scanners.

Another relaxing start to a Sunday morning and the start of the second phase of my TP run to Sofia and back. I'll be heading over to Heathrow this morning, with my B2B to Sofia early this afternoon.

From T3 Arrivals, I scooted out through customs and out into the very cold air of the UK. Along the corridors to the tube station and I had to wait 5 mins for a train to take me to Hatton Cross.
