Mini trip Qatar Qsuites Cbr to JFK

[love_the_life]

I'll quote this post in the medical thread as I do not want to hijack this good TR.

Yes, a good move; it's a terrific report and I am following with interest not ever having flown Qatar and the advantage of being able to fly directly out of CBR. I see the post over on Medical now. I'm sure FM will update us.

Thank you so much for your detailed review of the qsuites. I'm flying them with my parents in just over a month, booked 3 out of the middle 4, hope we don't get a 4th person.

Enjoy the rest of your trip!

That sounds wonderful - would be really fun to try out a quad! None of the flights we were on were 100% full in J, so I am sure they won’t put anyone in with you.

Some views from our window - including Carnegie Hall

How on earth does this qualify as a “mini trip” report?
I mean going west to get to JFK instead of East?. Over 30hours is not “mini”.

Miserable weather

One room of paintings we didn't appreciate

Sunday = showers

Some we did - the black and white almost photo looking were from the Red Army series

We hadn't realised how small the iconic Dali painting was

really have to get some street food this time

A few random street photos that appealed to Mr FM - he is suffering furry animal withdrawal symptoms

Is it birthday dinner for son tonight?
Or is it next week?

yes the rain is coming and going - anyway we are mainly here to see our son, so lots of chatting indoors

I think the mini is that it's a very short trip (well for the FMs at least)

next week - his plane only gets in at about 5ish today

Mr FM and I are going down to breakfast and then we might walk down to Desigual - the girls love those clothes

yes thats right - two weeks hardly seems worth the effort Also having done most of the big ticket New York items we don't plan on repeating them, so it's not a full blown New York trip

Wondered that.. but I assume you have done the lax rat run on Qf through to JFK ..?
Passes my mind that there may be merit in the longer option using a "real" J or F carrier...

…aaaand ……..swmbo was aghast at the sticker $$ per diem for the Hyatt
I bet dishes for a week that we paid near that for a very well used 2br apartment at the Beacon in 2017...
I won but she will not honour the bet until she finds the Amex statement...

Yes and the prices are comparable.
There is no such thing as a flight which is too long when in premium like Qsuites

One thing I have never done is NYC Street Food

 

[I love to travel]

If you want to get some serious shopping in to escape the weather Woodbury Common outlets is a great day trip. Bus from 42nd street bus terminal
