Where would you be now ... ?

[esseeeayeenn]

What would everyone be doing now if it wasn't for this nightmare?
I would have been in Nouméa again, drinking champagne on the beach of Îlot Canard inbetween snorkelling sorties and watching the sunsets sipping coughtails with friends at the Chateau Royale before dinner at one of many amazing restaurants which cater more to locals than tourists.
On the bright side, I have a new dishwasher instead.
A year without travel is going to pay for a lot of home improvements.
None of them look quite this good, though or be this much fun

We should be in the UK and my son would be at the Harry Potter experience as an early 10th birthday present

Well this morning I would have arrived in South Korea after flying up yesterday from SYD to HND in J on ANA's new second-daily daytime flight and spending the night in Tokyo.

Last couple of days of our holiday. A stop at Erfurt-a new place for us but know people there & set up an easy transfer to Frankfurt for the 1st leg home



This apartment certainly read well

Meyfart 1, Apartment Erfurt

One month ago, we would have departed SYD on QF first class EK redemption to Zagreb, Croatia. With a cousin along for this part of the trip to visit the birthplaces of parents & grandparents. Minus cousin, then on to France and the Canal du Midi, finishing up with some quality time around Epernay
Landing today after final legs CDG-DOH-SYD, first time in Qatar QSuites.
Oh well, at least we (eventually) got full refunds for QF points, cousin's EK paid ticket and our QR paid flights.

I would have been on my honeymoon visiting England & Italy. Domino's pizza just doesn't taste the same.
But it's OK as we will delay the trip by 2 years to make it bigger and better and in conjunction with a significant birthday too.

This has been floating around the web
‘ I told my luggage there would be no holidays this year and now I have emotional baggage’

I would be somewhere here

in Belarus right now, preparing to return to Minsk and catch the flights that would bring me home - and to my first taste of status with any airline.

Now who knows if that airline will be worth having status with when it re-emerges, and the virus (the very one that Mr Lukashenko pronounced to be a "psychosis" roundabout the time he was expounding the anti-viral properties of vodka and tractors) has me travelling to local watering holes instead. My region has gotten a raw deal with bushfires and then restrictions so I should be doing my part here, but I kind of miss... the naps in the terminal during long layovers, flooded third class train bathrooms, the constant where'd I put my passport again? and of course the thrill of being immersed in another culture.

I was due to be starting a tour of the Kamchatka Peninsula today. Instead, the refund for all but the $2K deposit that I've rolled to next year's tourlobbed into my bank overnight. Happy to get the refund; unhappy to not be there...

 

[Noel Mugavin]

Should be in Port Douglas for the next week. 12 weeks since I cancelled, still no travel credit appearing. 6 phone calls made in April/May being told different times when it would appear, probably need to give them another call tomorrow.

 

[daft009]

Paris from 1-17 July for a wedding and holiday. With an overnight work trip to Milan in the middle

 

[Lynda2475]

I would been spending one final day in Helsinki after 5+ weeks travelling around Scandinavia and Thew Baltics, borading a J Qatar flight to Doha just before midnight, then connecting to a Qsuites flight to Singapore.

Instead my only travel today was an uber to the optomitrist to pick up new reading glasses.

 

[Toula92122]

I would have arrived in Kuala Lumpur earlier this week. Tomorrow would have been catching a flight to Kuching and an excursion into the Borneo jungle to see monkeys. Makes me quite depressed sitting in my lounge room watching life just pass me by.

 

[Pushka]

I just received a notification from Qantas that my flight Adelaide - Hong Kong - Paris is now open for check in.

Enjoy Bastille Day celebrations!

Enjoy Bastille Day celebrations!

Of course! We were going to be there and were worried about the Yellow jackets. Ha. Least of the worries.

 

[Cossie]

Should have arrived in Jo'burg last night before flying up to Nairobi for the Safari Rally

 

[p--and--t]

Well yesterday I missed my (cancelled) flight from KUL to HKT on MH booking I made last year for a few days relaxing and massages.

Today I missed a replacement (cancelled) flight & holiday (booked two months ago) back from OOL after having a week away in the sunshine away from Melbourne winter.

The heater in the lounge room has had more action this year than its had in years and years.

 

[AisleSeat]

We should be getting over our jetlag in the US right about now.

 

[Flashback]

I gave up worrying about where I was supposed to be, it only makes things worse and makes you feel down in the dumps! Time to look forward........
