It's time for the traditional "where will LH take you this Christmas" thread - 2012 reloaded.
(I heard "Last Christmas" by WHAM yesterday on the radio, so it must be time to start the festivities)
I'll start: I'm staying put at home and will be going absolutely nowhere !
9th of December will probably be my last flight for 2012 - a very boring oneway MUC - DUS in whY (€130 oneway in whY versus €650 in J .... go figure).
So, let's hear it ?
Where will LH be taking you on the C slide or NEK'ing you ?
Lucky enough for new First or good old First ?

I'll NEK off from BEG to BER (TXL really, via MUC/FRA) from 04/01 to 07/01 with my GF in Y. We're hoping to catch the last of the Christmas markets, as we were unable to take the trip in December due to work/studies. We've also booked ourselves a Privilege Room in Mercure Berlin City for 57€/night during Accor's Berlin sale, so I'm looking forward to a really great (and inexpensive) weekend trip.

LH are taking me on the 12th to SIN and then SQ are taking me onwards to MEL. Eventually, I will end up in SYD for Christmas with my little brother and his family. Apart from BHX-FRA, no NEK or sliding C is involved in this trip.

Dear airport security critters, Das Leben der Anderen was a terrible warning not a how-to manual.
Booked 2 short city trips before and after the holidays.
2 days in Riga to explore the old town; and then a weekend early January in Minsk. First time visit to Belarus, bringing me 1 shy of my quest to visit every capital city in Europe.
All in a mix of OS, LH and LO.
Merry christmas and safe travels!

How did you sort out visa for Belarus? Was playing with the idea too, last time I was there was 2001 or 2002 on business.
To MCO with the family in C. If all goes well, these will be my first flights as a newly HONored pax so looking to impress the family by maximizing the FRA experience.
OS will take me and the family from CPH to DEL on the 15th and eventually on to Sri Lanka with UL.
LH will fly us MAA to CPH on Jan 7th
This will be my first LH flight in over 1 year. My wife only had enough miles for Y and her points were expiring, so I will be slumming in the back of the plane as well

Like weero I'll be enjoying the dAArk OW side of the flying world flying north on Finnair (operated by flybe nrdic in 3 of 4 legs) MUC to KEM 22-26DEC. The connections suck so bad we're overnighting in HEL both ways, one direction on the dime of AY since they had a schedule change LH/SAS would have been 2x the price I paid (aprox 1400€ for a family of four)

On 23 December LH will take me to FRA where I'll swap NEK with NH's Dreamliner with 1-2-1/1-1-1 layout to HND. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the feeder won't be delayed and they won't put me on the A380 C slide to NRT instead.
My first flight in 2013 will be the route in reverse departing HND at 01:10 on 1 January. Unfortunately M&M just reduced mileage for NH Z fares from 200% to 150%. Happy New Year!
