2025 travel plans

[bPeteb]

No travel plans thread for 2025?

If there is mods, please merge. I decided to post after last night's bookings.

Start the year in Busan Korea. We fly to Seoul on Dec 24. We'll spend 13 days between Seoul, Jeju, Busan and Gyeongju.

Another dsc run to CHC over Oz Day weekend. Staying down at NZ's little France, Akaroa. I love the irony

Up to Cairns to catch up with our Port friends over Easter.

Last night we booked a return to Africa for most of June. East this time. Managed to get PE reward seats BNE-JNB for bAlt without having to call. Funny part of the booking was his flight up from SYD. Seat selection only offered in J! No such luck with my revenue flight

19 night private Kenya-Tanzania tour, Nairobi to Mobasa, with Tapestry of Africa. Very excited.

Jan 3rd, returning from my Christmas ‘24 Caribbean cruise via DFW.

In March, to New Zealand for the Auckland AFF dinner and then on to the Cook Islands for a week. Air New Zealand direct from Hobart in economy (no other class on the bird) and then PE to the Cook Islands all without any status.

May sees me fly to Paris on QR to go onto Dubrovnik and a small group tour of the Balkans for 10 days, then back to Paris and about five days looking at the châteaux of the Loire valley before I get flown to Longyearbyen for a 10 day cruise around arctic Spitsbergen. Fly back to Paris, a few days around Barcelona and then back home.

Bit of a rest up until December 2025 when I’m doing Ponant cruise across the Indonesian archipelago from Bali finishing at Cairns.

Contemplating a trip to Madagascar and Reunion in September on Areoplan Miles but my CC may need a bit of a rest.

Taking it all carefully we have a confirmed SS cruise Singapore to Male in February and if all goes well maybe something late in the year.
Persuading swmbo to accept a long haul flight anywhere has become very difficult..such is life..

The year will start off in Laos.
