Dreamt but seeming impossible to plan :cry: : still the Azores to add the A310 to my log (and also discover a beautiful place; I am not travelling only for flying ;) )

Maybe I'll use my miles to upgrade to C... Don't know yet. I don't want to fly across the pond in Y because of the very limited room but on the other hand, I can just keep myself busy by walking around for 7 hours :D Still waiting for an answer from SN, yesterday they promised that they could assign exit seats due my length (2m04) but after booking and calling nobody seemed able to do so... Oh well, we'll see what the result it. Worst case is walking around and standing :-)
OK... No upgrading through miles... Contacted SN through Twitter and they told me that it would be no problem. Called UA to upgrade and UA told me no can do, only Y & B are eligable for upgrades...

Nice... B (nearly full fare) = 2.080 EUR all in, Z (business discount) = 2.180 EUR all in, why should one waste miles to upgrade a B or Y fare when one can book a Z fare for the same money?

Oh well, I have a decent seat in Y so I won't complain :-)

Well now, I booked this flight months ago, today I write about it here, and 15 minutes later I get a mail from the airline that the return flight has been cancelled and that they've rebooked me onto LO0267...

So here goes:
19FEB2012 LO0267 WAW-AMS

In February, only a return trip to Pisa (and visit of Pistoia).
In March,to Pisa again (visit of San Miniato); to Marseille; and to Girona, coming back from Perpignan.
April : to Manchester (a look at the IWM, too rainy for the Air Park); then to Nîmes, coming back from Montpellier; and to Budapest.
May : to La Rochelle, coming back from Bordeaux; and to Manchester again (visit of the Air Park, weather permitting).
All flights from/to Charleroi with guess which carrier ?
And in June a first visit to the new Berlin airport - with easyJet.
It's time to think about filling up the second half of the calendar sheet : my first booking is to Stuttgart with Germanwings in August.

Very nice program !
I had not realized that there are now (summer season) two daily return flights Charleroi-Manchester (excepted on saturday, one only).
A very good day return is possible on monday, wednesday and friday - arrival at MAN at 9; return at 19.35, 19.20 or 19.55 resp.
Thanks for having mentioned it, I will sure soon take advantage of that opportunity.

Nice program on your side as well, enjoy France ;)
I was also surprised by the 2nd daily flight to MAN, in fact I was looking for opportunities to fly the new route to BUD, but finally ended up trying various destinations. The schedule is indeed perfect for a daytrip, weather will decide if I go to the city or stay around the airport for some spotting... Good to hear that I gave you some ideas haha !
