Happy Friday and new year! I agree with the feeling that the Xmas break isn't all that relaxing ​​​​​​

I've dropped to bronze, even had an email to tell me. I see that I can still use business class check-in, I guess fast track is off the cards though.

Back to Blighty on Ryanair on Monday, at least the passport queues at Stansted shouldn't be that long (famous last words?).

I mentioned cancelling the Amex plat recently... We had a bit of a look around at travel insurance but they've gone through the roof since I last got a quote. It seems that and car hire insurance makes it almost worth it on its own. Back to the drawing board on that one.

Good health and safe travels for 2026!
