A look back at 2009....the IC look that is

Hi Folks,

Well first of all sorry for some of the delays but normal service should return now. Ok highlights as a FTer and PC user:

Good Points:
Earned lots of points
Learned more about the system
Stayed at some great hotels
Had some fantastic upgrades with the vast majority of hotels given them (no please dont start a discussion about this just say good or bad lol)
Was voted onto Flyertalk "Talkboard", you lot are mad to vote for me.
Had a great holiday Miamia, New Orleans, Orlando, Tampa near enough all on points.


Bad Points:
Car crash that put me out for 7 weeks
1st time in 5 years that I did not complete my Stay X get 10k points
Worse hotel HI Birmingham Airport

Thats about it folks but thanks for all your input during 2009, it was much appreciated. I am sure 2010 will just be as good.

Regards
J

Yes thanks Radioman and be sure to focus more on recuperation than IHG!!

My 2009 highlights? Finding enough business in this economy to renew all my colorful plastic cards, the best of which is RA. Keeping healthy and staying clear of swines with the flu. Several wonderful holidays.

Bad? Nothing Life is beautiful.

My 2009 Highlights were my return to IC with my first stays there since 2006. Granted, they were pretty weak but they still count.

4/6-4/8: HIX Tupelo, MS
6/15-6/17: HIX Rolling Meadows, IL
8/3-8/6: HIX Rolling Meadows, IL

Only stayed in IC once this year. IC Tahiti, which is easily the "world's best airport hotel".

Stayed quite a number of HI/CPs across Europe and Oz/NZ. Most were on PointBreaks.

Hope you are recovering well now.

My highlights dont really belong on this thread . Oh alright...I became an SPG plat AND a UA 1K for the first time ever. Now if I could just talk IHG into status matching my SPG PLAT, I will be one very happy girl .
