Not booked yet but hopefully back to Edinburgh to visit my folks for a couple of weeks. I am hoping to use miles to upgrade to First on the Vegas flight when it turns into a 747 soon!

Plenty in the pipe but nothing confirmed yet however we tend to decide/book from about 1 month to a few days before departure.
Except for the usual BA travel, e.g. London half a dussin times and NYC 2-3 times also this year:
DXB next month in F. First trip with Jr.
CPT sometime this year.
Mustique possibly around Easter.
I'd love to hit HKG on CX.
No idea what travels work will dictate. Ah, yes what is this thing work?

Just over 2 weeks in orlando with the family flying BA cw from Gatwick. Kids really looking forward to it. Followed by a week at a Universal hotel in a club room with fast pass access to the 2 parks - never again will I queue for 60 mins for a ride on a roller coaster. Then the dreaded "shopping week" at Lake Buena Vista, but I may take in some golf instead

LHR - BOS in February for 3 nights @ The Lenox. Then getting the Amtrak down to NY. Staying at the Hilton Garden Inn for 4 nights. Return JFK - LHR. Both in CW.
Then July its LHR - LAX in F, staying at a B&B on Hollywood http://hollywoodbandb.com/ Looks outragously larey! But we like B&B's for the personal touch. Parking, Good Breakfast, WiFi and Local knowledge you can't beat!
Driving to Palm Springs for a few days and staying in the Desert Riviera which is retro 50's style outfit. Came recomended by some friends. Again, all about the hosts!
Then onto Vegas for 9 nights staying the the Four Seasons before our trip home LAS > LHR in F again.
Maybe Liuyang, China via HKK and CSX in April.
Hoping to do some trip reports this year.

A few journeys thanks to FT in many ways.
Barrie, Canada in February 1 week. (EDI-LHR-YYZ)
(Non-BA and OT but going to York in Feb at Hilton for £77 per night inc breakfast under their latest offers and a cheapo deal with East Coast train for £80 return 3 of us.)
To the West Coast USA in late June/July for 2 weeks in Y taking my father-in-law. In a wierd way looking forward to economy and wish there were offers in MMB for regional departures. Will this ever come?? If not maybe try at the airports.
SFO - Nikko Hotel (5 nights) sown the coast road to
LAX and then LAS. no hotels booked yet. (9 nights total)
Florida (into Miami CW in October, 11 nights incl MCO/Lakeland area).
Possibly Mauritius at Christmas.

Yet another one flying to CPT in October but back from MRU, but before that a quick 4 day trip to Salzburg to I can go ski-ing in Kitzbuhel and obtain silver status.
We are also going to Barbados in June on our first First thanks to all the mile collecting/redemption tips from FT. Thanks Everyone
Can't decide whether to tell Mr K&C we are flying first or wait till we are on board
