Last week Astrid and I went on a bit of a tear and over the span of a few days we ended up booking 4 separate trips. A serious dent was made in the bank account to pay the airline carriers, but I'm feeling good to have all of this sorted out. In addition to a couple trips back to Canada for weddings, we booked up our next couple of holidays in Europe. Here's a quick summary:
* I'm flying back for Jay's wedding -- short trip, fly out on Wed Aug 6 and back on the late flight Friday Aug 8. Luftanza via Frankfurt (new airport, yay!) on the way there, Air Canada direct on way back.
* We booked ourselves a long weekend in Barcelona for the August bank holiday weekend. Fly out on Fri Aug 22 and get back Tue Aug 26. BA / Iberia direct.
* We finally got our trip home to Canada in October sorted. Flying back on Sat Oct 11, landing at 3:30pm in Toronto. Flying to the UK on the 8:30pm on Sunday Oct 19th (my birthday present to myself is a redeye flight in economy... yummy!). BA direct -- they had a long haul seat sale which was timely!
* We decided to make a go of Oktoberfest this year -- likely a group of Astrid's friends including Astrid's best work friend who is also named Astrid (crazy!) and since she's from Switzerland, she speaks German. Nice! Flying out Sat Sep 20 AM (opening day!) to Munich and back Tuesday Sep 23 AM to make a half day of work in London. BA direct.
But -- no time to relax just yet -- Sam & Becky are over in late September and we still need to book the Ireland flights for the 4 of us for the weekend. Fortunately Ireland is the cheapest place to fly (often less than 50 pounds), so this should be easy.
Happy flying,
Syd.
