ORDXI: Pictures are up, Videos are on the way.

26/10/2011 by Kevincm

As my sleep patterns are completely smashed after a 5 day trip to the USA (5 days to wreck my sleep pattern? It's getting worse I tell you...), I've decided to get the pictures from my trip report up.

ORDXI: Last post till London – Greetings from the Udvar-Hazy Centre…

24/10/2011 by Kevincm

... as United seem to run out of Free WiFi cards for T-Mobile. Is it a change I like? I'll let you all figure that one out. How.... inconvenient.

24/10/2011 by Kevincm

Well I'm preparing to break camp after a good weekend in Chicago, and I'll have a review of the Hyatt Regency O'Hare a  bit later (Key points - don't carry your room key next to your phone or you'll be stuck waiting 30 minutes to be let back into it, and avoid the King Rooms) But as I'm off to DC for a bit, then off home it's time for me to open up a point of contention and … [Read more...]

Drinks in Belfast with the BMI Board (BHX-BFS,DUB-BHX) Heading into LCC territory with BMI Baby and Aer Lingus, and a ride on the Enterprise Rail Service. Ok kids.

Atlanta or Bust (oh and Frankfurt too)! (BHX-FRA, FRA-ORD-ATL, ATL-IAD-LHR) With Lufthansa and United. If you can't guess the class by now... What happened to the Seoul trip? Umm. Yeah.

For those who are … [Read more...]
