New Routes!

Emirates have just announced the withdrawal of the A380 on services to New York. The 2 aircraft used for this route will be redeployed on routes to Toronto and Bangkok. I'm really looking forward to Bangkok as I have only been once and didn't have much time to explore. Toronto is one of my favourite cities and I'm looking forward to being able to see Niagara Falls again in summer time.

Viva Las Vegas & Bye Bye bmi

bmi (my old airline) are to finish long haul services from Manchester in April. I decided it was time to have one last flight with them before it's all over. I chose Las Vegas as I have always wanted to go and as Mother's Day was close I decided to take my mum with me. The place is absolutely amazing and I will definitely go back again one day if I get the chance!
