What are you planning on doing with your next vacation? I know this sounds childish but I am planning on going to Cedar Point in Sandusky Ohio. Ok I am 36 but I still LOVE rides!

I am going to Hong Kong on March 24 for a week.

Probably when I die and go to hell.









 

Paris Air Show, followed by two weeks visiting points in England, Amsterdam, Germany (must drive the Nurburgring), then some time in Italy. Can't Wait!

Maybe going on my first cruise, Alaska or the Caribbean.

YVR the first week of May!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  

Phyllis  

Setting up the honeymoon (Looks like Ireland and Iceland) for late July. Whee.

707

Hopfully to SIN for a weekend in june or july

Glasgow in early april then a week in Tenerife before going on to Amsterdam and Bangkok on the way back to Australia4 weeks of no work and lotsa airplane rides  

Going to Melbourne next week for the Formula 1 

Then...going to SEA in September for at least 2 months..hehe.

Well, the NYC meet will actually be my first chance at a vacation. Then, I'm headed to Europe (Italy, France, Spain, Greece, Austria, Switzerland, Netherlands, Germany) from September to late December.

... or did I already do enough unsufferable gloating about that trip?  

My next trip.... well, it's my "I Just Graduated college and I Got Into Law School" trip.

First I will go to Santo Domingo for a few hours just to get a bite to eat in the old town (a UNESCO World heritage Site)

Then I'll jet over to Lisbon Portugal for 3 days to see the sights afterwards I'll go to Madrid for 4 days. I studied abroad there once and I want to say hi to my old buddies.

After that I will be going to Berlin where I'll join a Contiki tour for 2 weeks. This tour will go to Vienna, Prague, Warsaw, Krakow, Budapest, and in transit through the Slovak Republic.

Then I'm off to Helsinki for 4 days for tourism, one of which I'll boat to Tallinn, Estonia (again as a tourist)

I'll then board another Finnair flight to Copenhagen for 3 days of sightseeing.

Then I have to fly Iberia in coach (did I mention the rest of this is all in J?) for 3.5 hours to MAD where I will probably sleep in the airport (unless I my old professor will let me crash at his place). In the morning I'm back in J and on my way to Tel Aviv. I don't plan on spending much time there as my family lives in Jerusalem. I'll be there for a few days and will probably fly down to Eilat to see my dad and have a swim at the beach. I may drive over to Taba, Egypt for lunch just to say that I've been there.

Next stop is London for a 10 hour layover, but no worries, I'll find a way to entertain myself.

That night I board the upper deck of a Boeing 747-400 to fly to Rio De Janeiro (via GRU). My 5 days in Rio should be sufficient to enjoy the "marvelous City", as the locals call it. I do hope that I'm not robbed. Or killed.

After Rio, I want to be a part of B.A. - Buenos Aires - Big Apple. Sorry, my GF loves Evita. I'm on Lan Chile (or is it just LAN) via GRU and SCL. 3 days in Buenos Aires to catch up on old times.

Then I fly down to Mar Del Plata where I hope to see old buddies of mine. I'll be there 7 days.

After Mar del Plata I return to Buenos Aires for 2 days.

What trip to South America would be complete without a stop in Montevideo (most trips, actually, but not mine). So be it, two days in Montevideo it is.

Well, just when you thought I'd be sick of layovers, I have a 12 hour one at MIA waiting for my flight to Lima, Peru. It will be great to be in the States for a few hours.

In Lima I have a half a day where I'll really only have time to tour a Catherdral that I want to see and get breakfast in the old part of town.

I then go on to Cuzco, Peru where I have 3 days, one of them is of course going to be spent at Machu Picchu. Then I fly back home via Lima.

My dates are June 13 - Aug 8.

My next real vacation is this summer:

12 Night Scandinavian Cruise on Royal Caribbean's Jewel of the Seas.

I'll start off in Buffalo where I will be spending time with extended family. From Buffalo I'll fly to JFK on JetBlue to connect to a Virgin Atlantic A346. Thanks to my dad having a ton of SkyMiles, my family of four will be traveling to LHR in VS Upper Class Suites.   We will spend three days in London before heading over to Harwich to connect to our ship, where we have two balcony staterooms.

Once on board our schedule looks a little like this:

Day 1: Dapart Harwhich
Day 2: At Sea
Day 3: Oslo
Day 4: Copenhagen
Day 5: At Sea
Day 6: Stockholm
Day 7: Helsinki
Day 8: St. Petersburg
Day 9: St. Petersburg
Day 10: Tallinn
Day 11: At Sea
Day 12: At Sea
Day 13: Back in Harwich

That day its back to LHR to return to the US, finishing up our busy vacation on board a VS A346 in their Upper Class Suites!

It will be my first time in London, as well as all of the aforementioned cities/countries, and my first time traveling on Virgin Atlantic and any International J-Class product.

Only 5 months to go!

-Mike

Most likely in late May, doing HKG-NRT-HNL-OGG and back......unless I decide to fly somewhere else before that.

I am considering EZE.
Other option is Oz.

I'm leaving tomorrow (25 Feb 2005) to go see my sister and her family in AUS for 3 days.  

I'm flying AA3456/817 from MSP to AUS and AA1604/592 on the return.

Mark

week of July 4..MHT to Nassau, The Bahamas for a week with the missus
and our adult kids and their respective SO's.




Jim

Flyboy,

I don't see how you're earning 50K in Hilton Honors points. That means you must be spening $5K on hotel bills. Also you said you're taking a tour for part of your trip which means you cannot earn HH points.

Did you also factor in the 1 mile for every dollar spent with HH?

I'd love to know how you're earning all these miles.

:]

I will be in California for a month starting the 30th of March. I will mostly be doing sightseeing, photography and I will definately be visiting the San Diego Zoo and Six Flags!

Wietse

New York and Boston in April

Wietse, yell when you're in LA--would love to so some photography with you at LAX.

-Leanne

The planned vacation is Las Vegas the third week of September, but I may throw together a quick one for April (The way my work schedule is set up, once every couple of weeks I have my off days for two weeks almost back to back [Our work week runs Saturday through Friday, but my off days are different every week], off Wednesday and Thursday, work Friday, off Saturday and Sunday) as I have a few floating off days I can take.

Marco Island on the 18th of March. Flying AA BUF-JFK-MIA

Paris on the 26th of march. Ive got 4 days and a whole lot to do.Thank god theres is non-stop serice from IAD

Im taking my two nephews to Jersey. It will be the first time Uncle Lee has taken them on his own. I chose Jersey as it was somewhere I was taken for childhoood holidays and has happy memories.

Also its a short flight. Im going to fly BA from Manchester and book for the first week in July, before it gets too busy or expensive.

TUNisia,

I'm spending the HHonors points on 2 nights hotel (one cat 2, one cat 4). The AA was a OW130C award. I wish I was earning that!

AA777. I'lll be in Bue.Aires. in Jul. We can meet if you're there.

Im going to YVR to spend a week with someone cute... Ive been told we are going to see as much as Western Canada as possible...
The best thing is, my parents just told me they may buy me the plane ticket.. YAYERS...

New York from March 30th until April 5th. Not sure what exactly we are planning to do as yet, think we may decide a few days before hand.

Wow what a coincidence, I'm going to YVR in May too to visit someone who's super cute and she's from an island nation. We'll be visiting all the cool stuff around Western Canada... then we'll visit my home town Calgary.        

I can't friggin wait!!!

VonRichtofen, I plan on flying from YYZ to YVR on May 4th in the evening.....I hope and returning to YYZ on 11th of May....

Phyllis  

Planning for my Summer vacation right now, Fiance has never been to Northern California so that's something I would like to show her.

The possibilities is a tour of the Nortwest flying into Portland and driving up to Seattle and Vancouver BC.

Or..

Glacier National Park.

Well I just got back from my 5 day vacation to Ireland last weekend but...

Next one is Last week of March.

ORD-DEN-ORD going snowboarding for 4 days.
