Enjoying getting back into flying after the awful last few years. Managed to sneak in another trip in Feb with Las Vegas in my sights.

As my POD arrived at Heathrow T5, I was lucky enough to catch a lift heading up to departures. If you time things badly, you can end up waiting a fair amount of time before a lift deems it appropriate to stop on your floor.

Phase 1 is pretty straight forward. I've got a flight to Amsterdam with BA on the Thursday, I'm staying overnight at the Hilton at Schiphol Airport and then on the Friday morning, I'm heading back to Heathrow, early doors.

This is the start of a mix of flights, car hire and hotel stays that I have collated together in support of (1) our holiday to Hawaii in Nov 2026, and (2) my GGL renewal.

I’ve just spent the last three weeks flying around the world. Well — to be completely accurate — I’ve flown around half of the world and then back again the same way.
