got 80k chase or amex points? flights for early 2025 available in fancy qatar qsuites business class. you could just use it to get in the region (doha) then fly somewhere else with a cash ticket, you can also probably add another qatar flight, which if short enough shouldn't cost any more...

i flew KUL-BKK-AMM-CAI, all flights i flew the other way around in some other threads. here is a karting track leaving amman. i planned to drive it when i was traveling with my helmet and between when i karted all thailand and all UAE, but security held me up 30+ minutes being bigger dorks...

i have a cheap one way biz to cairo i already booked for 2/27, and need to be in california 3/18. so i'm thinking i'll fly to cairo, then somewhere, and stay that somewhere 2.5 weeks. so looking for recommendations for somewhere cool to stay (1 to 2 cities) that is warm or at least warm-ish (i...

this thread will just be flights and airports really. i have 2 itineraries both ex-cairo that started out as cheap business class tickets as this was a way to get them cheaply. this ends up with my current itinerary being the longest, as it is a super indirect way of getting back to thailand...

driving from my hotel in amman to the airport was rough at parts, it didn't rain but it was ridiculously foggy. some areas worse than this. note in the jordan thread i mentioned driving to amman from wadi rum and having to take a 15km detour - parts of it were in the mountains, around corners...

i believe due to inflation, business flights ex-cairo have become pretty good deals. a cairo to chicago round trip flight on british airways i originally priced at 1400 i ultimately had to wait and book for 1800. i have another flight upon return there to get back to thailand, then return to...

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/SXP5VUMeVfk flying emirates back, i think technically this is considered a direct - but not nonstop - flight. it's the same flight number but it stops in BKK and some of us get off. the opposite of the one i took out; this time i thought i would accomplish both...

recently got to level 8, have posted a ton of stuff. wild to think that level 8 is 15k points and it's 50k for 9, 100k for 10. i suppose i didn't try and put in too much effort until mid-2021, and i have bouts of point accumulation then long lulls as i don't go anywhere new and just do the...

so leaving oman from my prior thread, my itinerary was oman air first MCT-BKK, 7h layover, BKK-HKG on emirates first. i've never flown emirates before as it is not tightly allied with others for points, plus their routes; but i happened to notice there's no cheaper premium class flight for them...

i booked a bit of a ridiculous itinerary checking out of my airbnb 9/8 1pm istanbul time and arriving to my airbnb in hong kong 9/10 7pm. this involved a lie flat oman air a330 IST-MCT 5h in biz, 14.5h layover, MCT-BKK oman air first 6h, 7.5 hour layover, BKK-HKG emirates first 3h trip. i...

in theory i'll get around to making a video of the flights, but canada aeroplan currently has kind of a sweet spot of 60k miles one way for business class between any route thailand to istanbul, or 80k for first class. rare to see direct availability, i mostly saw it on etihad and oman air, a...

how many of y'all see this out in the real world, i mostly am living on a small thai island so it doesn't really surface up i took a break and relocated to istanbul for a bit, and there's this girl in front of the cafe i'm working from dancing in the street. she's solo now but has a couple...

on amazon freeview (free with ads) now; https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B6YPZFV2/?tag=tcg21-20 2022 movie https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4960748/ i'm not sure if free now because it was anyway, or because the woman in it (caolyn bryant) recently died - a few days ago. i was not familiar...

it's on fx, and streaming on hulu. story interesting so far. and i sure likes me some kate mara. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PTTJ952iIlc

looking at a travel itinerary, and this is one place where it really seems good to have a guide and maybe even have a whole agency planned out trip beforehand. not sure if it's because their currency is currently rekt, but there's business class fare deals out of the region, and often cairo, so...

2021 film that maybe just came out on netflix? came up as a recommendation or something going around on there now. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4761112/ about gitmo and detainees there and US legal treatment. interesting talk and q&a by the colonel who also refused to prosecute due to...

looks like thai burger king is getting creative...

i've watched a few shorts and videos from this guy, this woman isn't the worst on the show or in the worst scenario, but still just has ridiculous financial illiteracy. i think basically everyone he has on the show are millennials, and he typically doesn't hold back much on letting them know...
