I have not stayed at the Hilton Garden Inn for a very long time – a symptom of covid and the pandemic I guess. Whilst I have been away, they have refurbished the place – looks much nicer in the public areas and even the guest rooms have had a bit of a makeover. My […]

Tier Point Run to San Francisco in Jan 2022: Day 1 – Amsterdam AMS to London LHR

I wandered up and down an empty concourse at Amsterdam and then headed back to Gate D18 to wait for boarding to commence. On the way back to Heathrow, I was back in my normal seat (01F). When I walked through the galley, the cabin crew did a double-take and immediately asked whether I was […]

Tier Point Run to San Francisco in Jan 2022: Day 1 – London LHR to Amsterdam AMS

I arrived on the bus from POD parking into bus stop 28, just outside the lifts, which I took up to level 5 and departures. T5 didn’t appear to be too busy and within 3 or 4 mins I was standing outside The First Wing (TFW). I already had my two boarding cards for the […]

Another trip that I am looking forward to immensely began with a relatively mundane drive to Heathrow. Left home just before midday and I had to take Vick’s car due to the missus needing to drive up to see her dad in Lichfield on Sat with her brother. Not a big deal to me, but […]

Tier Point Run to Hawaii in Nov 2021: Summary

I’ve enjoyed my first significant trip in over 18 months: Using Verifly to manage all of the covid-related requirements worked really smoothly and airlines were happy to review the app during check in. Wearing masks all through my flights was a real chore. I experienced the new BA Club World suite for the first time […]

Even though I emailed the valet team the previous day, my car wasn’t prepared for me at T5 M&G, so I was walked to where it had been stored. No apparent issue with the car considering the alarm went off on the day I dropped it and the window was reported as not being closed […]

When I got to T7, I checked in with BA who gave me new boarding passes. The AA boarding passes won’t work with TSA Pre-Check for some reason, even though the TSA Pre-Check isn’t much to talk about in T7. I’ve never understood why they don’t implement it properly. Security was a joke as usual, […]
