Sorry I missed you Ricky – I was In Barcelona on the 11th as part of a Star Alliance mileage run (LGA-YYZ-ZRH-BCN—ZRH-GRU-YYZ).
Would have been good to connect over a Glass of Cava.

Would’ve been fun! I was at BCN airport all day on the 12th… that’s a full story to come.
Fantastic story – truly movie worthy 🙂 Based on the stress of the day, I doubt you were in the mood for a chat on Mileage Run/Mistake Fare strategies. Looking forward to reading the La Premier review – tried this myself in the past only to have AF cancel – buy your 649 ticket soon !
I loved the Humaniti hotel in Montreal and was upgraded to the same suite, Haiko. I’m very interested in your report on the Cotton House in Barcelona as I’ve booked this hotel for a trip in 2022.
Hi Emmanuelle, unfortunately since writing the post I’ve had to rearrange my trip and didn’t stay at the Cotton House. But my quick visit has helped me rediscover my love for Barcelona, and I hope to be back soon to properly scope out the hotel scene!
Hi Ricky,
Was in SA when the sh*t hit the fan. BA canceled all their flights to SA and then made themselves totally unavailable to deal with the mess that they had created. After 2-3 days of watching and waiting decided to book JNB-ADD- FRA-MEX. Addis Ababa was a bit scary. Long layover of 17 hrs so Ethiopian put us up at the Radisson Blu for the day. Two roadblocks on the way back to the airport. Pitch black outside with lots of very unfriendly soldiers forcing us out of the shuttle while examining the vehicle and patting us down. No fun at all. Ethiopian was great but Lufthansa always wins. 747-8, upstairs for 12hrs from FRA to MEX. Will stay in Mexico for 2 weeks to avoid all the quarantine BS at home. Safe travels in the future.
I’m interested in the cost of your two changes. since you initially paid 70,000 pts for the trip and then made two changes. Could you also please comment on whether you think it’s better to pay fewer points but pay for changes and/or cancellation… or pay the higher pts that are offered that include those charges. Love your articles!
Until December 31, you can make unlimited changes for free. After that, it’ll depend on a few different factors around how confident you are of travelling as booked or travelling at all – I’ll write a more in-depth article when the time comes.
Hooray! Another trip report
This is what I love.At my age , I do not have the courage to travel, I wish I did.
Maybe in the spring things will change
In the meantime, I will travel vicariously through you.
There are plenty of luxury hotels in Poland. Just not chain ones.
Our family loved Krakow in the summer of 2019! The old downtown castle was what my kids loved the most. Plus we took them to Schlindlers factory and explained the small
Ghetto to them. It’s important to explain and teach your kids history so that it doesn’t repeat itself! Freedom is never free.
