Hey Keith,
I'm not sure what I'm considering as far as a trip goes. I don't need Elite miles so I don't care about the miles per se (Oh my god-- I can't believe I just typed that!) was hoping someone who is very familiar with a particular destination might respond with: We fly to X, stay at the lovely hotel Z and oh boy-- I can hardly wait to have the great breakfast again at cafe Y.
Only 'cause I have no energy to plan anything right now-- normally I would delight in immersing myself in 3-4 guidebooks and would furiously scan FT and the web for great Hotel, sightseeing tips.
Anyway, thanks to most for the offers/support-- I know everybody is going through the same thing.
