This is another installment of my series of TP runs to Sofia. In June and July of 2023, I did a number of trips out to Sofia, just to collect TPs. There was another opportunity in Dec 2023 to collect more cheap TPs, so here I am!

Another enjoyable, if slightly frustrating, trip earning Tier Points, which included my first ever overnight delay caused by a flight cancellation.

My flight home was due to depart from Gate C126. United Airlines (UA) advertise they start boarding 50 mins before departure time, so I headed down there early.

Well this wasn't the trip I thought I would be doing today! Stuck in New York due to (primarily) a BA IT cockup which held me up by over 4 hours

So, this was my last time in the Flagship Lounge at LAX for a while. I’ve never thought of it as being that special, but it has turned in to my base on this trip - I’ve been in to this lounge/airport 4 times now in just a few days. So I’ve grown a little fond of it.

So I now had the challenge of getting across New York from JFK to EWR. If you look at a map, the two airports are (roughly) equidistant from Manhattan and (roughly) on the same level.

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.
