As per the title really!
Nothing for me personally as yet however I am thinking of a visit to the German Markets however a warmer climate might be on the cards.

I will be flying from Las Vegas to Heathrow on the 14th for a pre-Christmas visit to the UK to see my parents and to do a railtour, namely the Branchline Society's "The Grand Farewell" (basically celebrating ten years of Grand Central and commiserating the fact that their HSTs will be going out of service). I am then flying back to Las Vegas on Monday 18th - so a super short trip. Hopefully I may even see some snow. There's little chance of that in Las Vegas, unless I go to Mount Charleston of course!

Ex-AMS to BKK, booked in I class via HKG, then staying in Hua Hin (4 nights) and Bangkok (NYE). Might switch out and buy some more Hilton points to get a fifth night (currently on points and cash) in Hua Hin.

Wasn't planning anything, but ailing in-laws (who were supposed to be arriving here in the Bay Area this weekend) have us traveling back to the UK and their home in the Lake District for Christmas now.
Could be worse I suppose, but I was rather looking forward to a Californian Christmas and not spending indecent amounts of money on air travel over the holidays. Was really hoping for a BA business class sale for the holidays, but couldn't risk waiting.

We managed to find two seats in BA First from SAN to LHR then onto Zurich in Business. Was a nice surprise as allowed us to plan a last minute trip to Florence for Christmas.
