Bit scary this - my first overseas trip by air on my own! At 47! I’ve always had someone in tow to rely on for finding my way around, or picking up things from hotel rooms when I have left them, and there’s no one but myself to rely on.

After the excitement of my first B2B at Dublin since the BA move from Terminal 1 to Terminal 2, I had to catch the return flight back to Heathrow.

A semi-risky B2B was planned at Dublin this morning, with the risk of messing up my trip to Tucson. Dangerous? Read to find out more!

This trip is another one based on the trending good value trips, starting in Dublin and ending in Spain. I don't quite understand whether these cheaper trips are an anomaly, or someone actually decides this sort of trip is a good idea.

Back in the air, to continue adding to my Tier Point pot. Somewhere new for me this time: Tucson in Arizona. The only time I have ever come across Tucson in the past is courtesy of Chandler in Friends.

I always jog through Dublin airport - it just doesn't make sense to assume all will be well with passport control and security. You never know what you might find.

I got through Passport Control kiosk first time, although it took a lot of whirring to confirm I was OK to enter the UK! From there, I headed up to the Arrivals Lounge for a shower.
