One month more and I'll see UK and UKs the most interesting places where Mr Cistavoda guides us.

highlights of the United Kingdom such as Central Bus Station, Smoking Area, Fast Track security and Tube station!

Yikes!

Myflightsapp just informed me I am cleared from waitlist and will thus be joining the salad eaters in the front of AY839 and AY996.

And I really have second thoughts about that trip! With 18 segments over christmas holiday I actually think I have reached my quota of airplan interiors for the next 6 months...

The online tool now says 5+ upgrades available for 996 that evening, none for 839 though.

But intuition, do you have a quota for lounge interiors? Have you reached it too?

Edit: there were a total of 9 upgrades available for AY996 (I took one). We should all upgrade so we can feel like we're on a sombrero charter to GZP or something.

Yeah, it will only be 16 lounges so I guess I have a bit left on that quota!
(CPH x2, TXL, HEL, HND x2, OKA, CAN x2, MEL x2, AKL x2, RAR, NRT, OSL)

My major issue actually is that I am wasting a lot of time with the LHR DO. 'cause I need to position and that means wasting friday and sunday too.

Let's see. If they have tomorrow the fair offers as regularly it should be 8k points then. At least for me with 0 vouchers.

I only got upgraded for AY996 this morning. No luck for AY839 although on waitlist for long time already.

Plat power!
