I couldn't turn down the offer of a cheap ex-Dublin Tier Point run to Hawaii for the weekend.

I waited about 20 mins at the Fast Track boarding queue to get back on the plane. I informed the gate agent what I was doing so me diving under the barrier didn’t cause any concerns.

I have only 3 flights to go to complete my massive TP run. Next stop Brussels. I did toy with the idea of missing this out and just heading back to MAN - easy enough to do, but I don’t want to blot my copybook just yet.

I spent about an hour in the lounge at Brussels Airport - it’s an ok lounge but there’s nothing much going on - the views aren’t that great and the food/drink isn’t that good either.

I found my way to the Galleries First Lounge at T5. I had enjoyed my first Starbucks of the trip. Jim is my Starbucks name!

Well just days to go now, and I’m getting prepared for my long trip. Itinerary has been printed; flight bookings printed; hotel bookings printed; maps to get me across London, and across NYC printed; and I’ve got my ESTA, Global Entry and travel insurance details printed as well.

Shouldn’t be scary this one - I’ve done overseas trips on my own before (well once), and I’ve worn the t-shirt, and watched the video, and read the book etc. No big deal.
