I achieved a new personal milestone and bought a fully flexible ticket using my own money for the first time. CE return NCL<>TLS in D class at GBP . ET was only a few hundred cheaper.

Not quite J yet and not exactly Club World. But a personal milestone nonetheless.

Fortunately I budgeted for this when setting my project fee. But even so it was inventory restrictions rather than a genuine need for flexibility that caused me to book it, so I will be on the look out for R/I opening and will have no compunction cancelling and rebooking if they do to save a monkey. Sadly I think the only way for availability now is D and C closing!
