Thanks in advance.
I know two people who used to do it pre-pandemic. Worked in Dubai and spent most weekends in London. One guy did it for several years. Depending on your appetite for it, definitely doable if you’re not working.

That’s essentially my life, except Johannesburg and maybe two or three weeks a month, not every week 😅
