End of August is ORD-HNL for a week.

So what your saying is when you go home people say "I didn't know you were coming for a visit".

I just tell people that coming home is just a stopover and a chance to do laundry, repack and check the mail.

ALB-ORD-CPH later this month, my first business cabin flight that I actually paid out of my own pocket for (Z on SK). Was only about 50% more than the Economy fare at the time I booked it. From Copenhagen we're on the Emerald Princess for 11 days.

In September we do ORD-NRT-BKK-DPS for a dive trip at Wakatobi with 3 days in Bangkok on the way. Award flight on UA,TG,TG,TG,TG,NH, business class.

Our first flights on SK, TG, and NH.

Saigon, coast of Nha Trang and Mekong area in Vietnam, entering Cambodia by boat via Mekong at Chau Doc and from there Phnom Penh until Siem Reap and Angkor Wat.



Quite a classic route for a first timer.

If you have any extra time in Cambodia, I suggest adding Kep. It's about a 3 hour drive from Phnom Penh on a pretty decent road.
