Featured AFF Member Trip Reports |
Norwegian cruise, London, Bavaria and the Maldives |
Trip report by Daver6 | We started planning this trip ages ago. I have a bunch of HH points to blow and we decided Conrad Maldives was the way to go. The plan was to also fly on a 280k J OWA so we obviously needed to visits some other places. And so we decided on a cruise up the Norwegian coast would be in order. We decided we'd stop by London to visit friends and family and Bavaria to visit family. read more... |
Canada, Mexico, Europe, oh my! RTW here we go. |
Trip report by Drakecula | It was many years in the making. I read and researched and read some more and weighed up options. In the end I decided *A would be the best suited based on future travel plans and what airlines flew where. We signed up with KrisFlyer in particular as they had announced they would fly from Canberra which was a bonus. Thus began the journey to amass frequent flyer points with the goal for a RTW J trip. read more... |

Later today, it will be Turkish to Tbilisi, Georgia - via Istanbul (SAW).
