I am IC Royal Ambassador, so looking forward to it a lot! What makes it even better, is that I have been planning this trip for some time, and managed to get the reservation for the pre-increased price of 25K a night! Bargain!
Thanks
BBB! 25,000 points is a steal for this property!

When I boarded, I saw him in 3G, and the look on his face when he saw me settle into 2J (my favorite seat on that a/c with AA) was priceless. I wonder if either of the incidents taught these people some manners.
Amen! Though I wouldn't hold my breath on that haha.

One question, in Hong Kong you had quote a few close family members and yet you decided to stay in hotels? I dont understand why because I would personally see it as a waste of money or points. There are hotels in different locations around the world where those points could go towads where you would not have family preset. Apologies in advance if you explained why you did choose hotels over family and I just missed it.
Thanks
Omar. That is a fair question. For me it's a matter of personal preference. I prefer to have a little more personal space. And besides, it can get a little awkward you want to spend a little more time with one person over another, etc. I think the points and cash I burned were well spent, if it helped buy me a little peace.
