We look forward to a laugh-fest for us, with another witty trip report from you. It will be nice to see how well AF pull up their socks after the backlash they have (deservedly, IMHO) got.
Cheers, Sumantra. |

Hello everyone!
Exams are done so do expect a bit of activity from me in a certain part of this forum. 
Anyways, I'd like to share a bit of pain with you all.
Following are the flights I would NOT be flying on -
Mum:
9W253 CMB MAA 0310 0425 B738 (VT-JFL) 20NOV
6E523 MAA CCU 0810 1025 A320 (VT-IEA) 20NOV
6E326 CCU BOM 1440 1730 A320 24NOV
6E327 BOM CCU 1705 1945 A320 27NOV
6E246 CCU DEL 1135 1400 A320 one of these days.
SG309 DEL MAA 1915 2150 B739ER 07DEC
9W253 MAA CMB 0055 0210 B738 08DEC
And Dad:
9W255 CMB BOM 0530 0810 B73H 30NOV
6E268 BOM HYD 1710 1835 A320 30NOV
6E263 HYD BOM 1220 1345 A320 01DEC
9W256 BOM CMB 0200 0430 B73H 04DEC
9W253 CMB MAA 0310 0425 B738 05DEC
SG312 MAA DEL 0625 0915 B73H/9ER 05DEC
SG309 DEL MAA 1915 2115 B739ER 07DEC
9W253 MAA CMB 0055 0210 B738 08DEC
No comments, honestly.
Suddenly the Dreamy Diversion to Delhi feels nothing 
Personally, I'd go for Dad's itinerary. That is for various reasons.
-Mum has already left.
-I've been to CCU so many times. Hyderabad was last in 2005.
-737-900ER twice
-A certain aviation company 'Bias' which I have. That has more flights in this set.
-More passport stamps 
Oh and they have 3 more flights together with your's truly.
As I have already mentioned about charity work in the 9W thread.. An announcement is still imminent.
A bit more of a wait, that is all.
Regards
Jish

I'll inform Mum and Dad, sir, thank you 
Isn't a 3hr40min window enough, even if there is a delay?

I already hinted at something on WhatsApp.
Oh well, since the month is already here, I'd like to announce my next trip, although its a long long way to go.
The inevitable will happen now, people.
Its now time for me to fly: SriLankan Airlines
Lots I've heard about that airline. A few amazing stories, but sadly, most of them are on the negative side. And these are stories from recent times.
I've somehow managed not to fly SriLankan Airlines in all my trips (via DXB to South Africa, the two Singapore trips, so many India trips...) but this duck will finally be broken, as airlines do not have flights to the destination, other than UL.
And I think most of you (WhatsApp group members) must have forgotten because I mentioned it a long time ago.
Its a trip to Bengaluru.
Flight details are as follows:
UL171 CMB BLR 1845 2005 26DEC A320
9W2758 BLR MAA 2100 2205 01JAN AT72
UL124 MAA CMB 2055 2215 02JAN EQV (fingers crossed for a plane that portrays me - a wide body)
Thanks to you readers' feedback on my last TR (the Jaffna one. Its been so long!), I will focus on the food aspect too, although most of us know what food over there feels like.
Regards
Jish

My next trip. Tentative dates, tickets not done yet.
BLR-FRA-FMO 5th Jan
FMO-FRA-BLR 1st/2nd Feb
In all probability it would be on LH, so finally I'll fly on 747 |

Office is paying for it. They have a policy where they don't book the tickets till one has the Visa. and thanks to the Christmas holidays, my passport is in the German consulate for over a week now. |

Sure. If I am travelling by LH, I might have around 8 hours transit at FRA. I'll try and put it to good use and complete my TR.

That would be even better for a separate TR of its own! Really look forward to it, Sir. |

As expected - full fare Y tickets - must have cost your org a bomb - would be cheaper to fly discounted economy fares . Hope you had a good flight!

Yes it cost a bomb, but I had to be at client's office today. So in the end there was no other option.
At least I will earn around 14K miles. |

*** HAVE A SAFE FLIGHT ***
FARES ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGES" |
The EWR-LAX sector is already upgraded to B as Y/B fares are instant upgrade to business class on US domestic. Given the Platinum status I have this year - I will earn 25.8K status miles on this itinerary and 38.7K award miles! This is far better earning potential than SQ - which was 19.5K status and the same award miles. Long trip to the US this time , and to a new city as well (much prefer going to cities where I'm already familiar with things).
Edited to update the outbound journey dates - got shifted by a week.

^^ Hmm - did not realize you loved FMO so much that you booked a one-way ticket! Good luck and hope it's working out...
My next trip is coming up - all on miles - entire family heading to the US for a summer break
| Code: |
22/Apr - BLR-FRA-IAH LH 744/ LH 380
We essentially go to my workplace's apartment in Houston, drop our checkin bags, rest for a night and head out early next morning to Florida with carry on bags only
23/Apr - IAH - TPA 737-900 (early morning flight)
Spend the day in the Tampa bay area
Leave 24th early morning by Rental car to Port Canaveral - 4 day cruise to the Bahamas follows
27Apr to the 1st May - in Orlando - Disney and stuff
1May MCO-SFO (752) connecting to SFO-LAS (320) - late evening flight arriving LAS at 12:30 am.
5th May - LAS-IAH (739)- evening back to Houston :( - start work from the next day
20th May IAH-FRA-BLR (380/748) finally get the new queen on the way back.
|
So 2 weeks of vacation, and then 2 weeks of work (with family around) - and a great use of all the *A loyalty/ miles over the years . UA does not charge any fuel surcharge etc. - so I pay only the govt. levies on all the tickets...

The things one has to do for work. I am expected to be here for a year at least. No point in booking a return ticket yet.

Nice. Have a great trip. Maybe you can convert the young ones into aviation nerds |

True that
One week is not enough for France.
But then, the itinerary is Paris only, so I guess a week is enough for Paris only, but like you said - there is plenty of stuff in France as a whole..
Anyways, thanks though!  |

Hello everybody!
Taking off again, this time to MEL, and permanently. I have been offered a place at the University of Melbourne, and so thus begins my next chapter in life. Hopefully, I'll get to do a TR about this!
EY394 DOH AUH 0955 1155 321 14JUL
EY204 AUH BOM 1540 2025 320 14JUL
SQ423 BOM SIN 0025 0820 388 15JUL
SQ217 SIN MEL 1040 2000 77W 15JUL
These dates are subject to my Australian visa application, so hopefully I get to fly out on these dates!

The French ATC are going on strike from the 24th june for six days, and about 20 - 50% of long haul flights are expected to be affected.
It should all go well . Don't get too worried.

Thanks for that
I saw the notice on the (annoying) CX website, and I did get a bit worried if I be honest.
However, today UL563 reached CDG 11 minutes before time, while UL563 is pretty much on time.
Thanks for the intel though |

^^ Congratulations! What was the approx fare for this routing and did you want to land in BOM or was that taken due to the lack of convenient options to get you to HYD?

The fare was approximately $1980. The direct option to HYD from DAB, which was DAB-CLT-LHR-HYD on US/AA/BA, was very expensive, over $3500! 
The good thing about this routing is that it gives me the opportunity to experience the new T2, and it also gives me the opportunity to experience the BOM domestic terminal, which I have not been through since 2000.

^^ Cool - enjoy your flights and hopefully the transit experience at BOM T2 is far better now. The only thing you need to watch out for is the 15kg restriction on domestic flights...

^^ Enjoy - and make sure you give yourself some time to acclimatize to the high altitude and low oxygen in Leh. If you are already asthmatic - be extra careful!
