Trip of a Lifetime.

And so the much awaited day finally arrives.

This latest trip holds a very special place in my heart as I am finally coming home to marry Rac! 🙂

We will have our special day in a beautiful beach resort in the Philippines but more on that later. To get back home, I was going to just buy a regular ticket for myself but figured this was the perfect opportunity to burn some miles and go home in style!

After researching possible routes and airlines, I came up with:

Venice-Brussels-Frankfurt (stopover)

Frankfurt-Incheon-Manila (destination)

On the return I booked Rac and myself:

Manila-Bangkok-Frankfurt

Frankfurt-Zurich-Venice

All flights for both of us are in First/Business class. 🙂

Where to today? :)

The day finally arrives and my good friend Mark drops me and Julian at the airport.

Check-in was uneventful and shortly after, I was waiting for my flight to Brussels, Belgium via Brussels Airlines. I didn’t even bother to visit the airline lounges in Venice as it was so early and all I wanted to do was sleep.

Arrived in Belgium on time and headed straight to the lounge to grab a drink. The next flight was with Lufthansa.

The flight attendants were nice and the meal was delicious!
