Planning to drive from Portugal through spain to Granada

We did this in December 2024 and it was fabulous. Be sure to stop off in Cordoba if you have time.

I liked ‘Joey Tomatoes’

Last day in Calgary and I’m at Joey Eau Claire (they’ve dropped the ‘tomatoes’ from the name). Caesar seems the way to go…

Still have 650000 IHG points and with airlines down from over 1 million at VA, AA and SQ. to 500000 VA, 400000 at AA and 350000 at BA.

Flight to Yewrop is now 1 week from tomorrow … the world seems to be pretty consistently at about 3wks of jet-fuel reserve, chances of flight via Hong Kong being canned are pretty low … we have even made our meal choices!

Well, I've finally managed to rid myself of all my booked flights through the ME.

The last to go were Pegasus (refunded in a matter of days), Sri Lankan (refund took about 6 weeks), Aegean (just a couple of weeks) and a VA reward on QR. In each case the amount of refund received was equal to or more than what I expected.

All have now been replaced by flights on BA, avoiding the ME.
