Made any travel mistakes lately?

Took advantage of recent Jetstar sale to fly grandson up to meet us in CNS.
Of course could only get one fare at $89, so paid the $201 for the preferred flight back.
Another sale landed this week for $99 each way, could get both preferred flights at that price
Oh well, a hundred bucks less they get when I die.....

That is quite ok @Flyfrequently .
We now call this SKI -ing which is Spending Kids Inheritance and it doesn't hurt a bit.

Better to give it with a warm hand than a cold one..

At least I took one of the kids with me on a recent trip. It was one of his bucket list destinations. He got both a trip and less inheritance from it.

As both mine will since I’m income rich and lousily asset poor (divorce and taxes)

They were both on This trip for varying lengths of time
It’s been an entertaining experience that’s for sure

Some time ago we started doing AAMiles as Christmas presents by buying them on 100% promo around Thanksgiving. Was surprised that one ran out of Miles just over half way into the year.. May have created a problem but it is only money.

I have been waiting for @Red Roo to reappear and post that Qantas sold return first class fares from Sydney to LA for $4,299 instead of $24,299.

We had a good day today.

Checking out of the Hoover House B&B in Gwalia my wife bought me a book. I put it down to talk the woman at reception and, of course, walked out without it. I remembered it when we were far enough away that it would have cost more in petrol to return than the book cost.

Then as we were at Lake Ballard our German visitor found the key to her room in her jacket pocket. Initially she was going to post them back but in the end she was asked to drop them off at the council office in the next town along - Menzies.

Then we were walking around and I dropped the fly net for my hat somewhere and couldn't find it.
