Following on from Munich, I had two back to back trips to the UK. First up was a layover to Manchester which is home for me! My parents have recently moved house (still upset they’ve sold my childhood home but let’s not get into that) so it was time to check out the new neighbourhood…

Blessed In Birmingham
I took the Sunday morning flight to Birmingham landing lunchtime to a gorgeous day. I’d arranged with my parents for them to drive down from Leeds so we could go for some Sunday lunch as it had been about six weeks since I’d last seen them. What was such a lovely surprise was that they’d…
Live From London
I swapped my Milan layover and a day off for a turn around to Karachi and a layover in London Gatwick as I had tickets to see Ariana Grande at the London O2 Arena. A very lucky swap for the other person, but it was working out in my favour too! A very early departure…
A Super Special Stansted
I swapped my trip to Prague for a special trip to one of our new destinations in the UK which is Stansted. Usually I wouldn’t swap a nice European layover for a London flight but this one was an extra flight where we would be deadheading on the way to London Stansted as we were…
A Merry Little Manchester
It’s not often I write on Manchester as I usually go home, but with my parents away on holiday and my sister at uni, I had decided to stay in Manchester. It also coincided with my friends birthday perfectly and she had taken the day off work, so we decided to go for afternoon tea…
Enticing Edinburgh
One of our newest destinations on the Emirates Network is to the capital of Scotland, Edinburgh. I was excited to see this on my roster as I’d never been to Edinburgh, and I never seem to get the new destinations this quickly. Departing Dubai at 9:55am, it was 7 hours and 10 minutes over to…
Summer In South London
First of all, many apologies for the silence on my blog, not only have I been on holiday but my laptop had also broken, absolute nightmare. But a new one has been purchased and I can finally catch up on all my posts I need to do! So, sadly a swap from my Singapore flight…
Wandering Through Windsor
Yet ANOTHER trip to London Heathrow and I thought I should do something a little more exciting. A couple of our Heathrow flights stay by Windsor and thought it be the perfect opportunity to go and explore somewhere relatively new. I say relatively as the last time I came to Windsor was when I was…
