I have begun to fly more RTW trips to save time on the road and money for my employer by combining my EU and North America trips into one.
But I am also addicted to airlines status and Elite Qualifying Miles (EQM), and that addiction leads me to focus on certain airlines only within the *A network: United, Continental, US, LH, NH and AC. These airlines offer fare-based EQMs to allow me to earn System-wide Upgrade Certificates in the United Mileage Plus program. I also fly SQ to accumulate United miles and $ spent for PPS status.
A few months ago, I had an RTW itinerary that included New York City, Washington DC, London, Brisbane and Singapore. I was excited before the start of the trip, because it was going to be my first time visiting Australia...my good mate is from Australia!! Unfortunately, a few twists and turns alone the way that I was a little deflated when I reached Brisbane....
Regardless, there are a few photos from the trip to share, and as usual, doing this photo trip forces me going through and organize my photos taken during the trip, and keep my boring days in the office exciting!
..... Stay Tuned!!
