      Jay Birong regarding pollution. The richest 10% stands for ruffly 50% of the carbon dioxide emissions. So if you are the type of person who can afford this type of vacation then you should probably look at your own contributions. Not saying that you are or that you pollute, just pointing out my opinion.

    Just got back from Conrad Maldives on a rewards trip. Honestly it is incredible! Having gold or diamond status does help and we managed to upgrade to a 2 bedroom overwater villa for only 40% the cost of the difference between our standard room and the overwater villa. However be prepared for a hefty check out bill as food is expensive and trip costs will add up. Along with that 20 minute seaplane ride.... and every thing is ++

    2.2 million points per night... I put 60+ nights and ~$30k in expenses (restaurants, airfare, rental car, etc.) on my Aspire last year and did the SUBs for the Surpass and regular Hilton Honors card and I just cracked 1 million points, which I thought made me hot shit. Thanks for flexing and bringing me back down to earth.
    Sadly the only thing I can relate to regarding your travels is how ubiquitous plastic waste has become in our oceans, from South Point to South Beach. Also congrats on your Player 2.

    Yo people don't worry, that's not a random bottle floating at 1:13. Those are weighted to the sea bed and act as a marker or buoy. They are used for general things that help navigate the area, like warnings or even direction of the current. So no worries, not pollution!

      We also stayed in Conrad Maldives for our honeymoon back to 8 years ago. We regretted of going there at the end. The weather was extremely hot and the food was not impressive at all. The overwater villa that we stayed at was just so so. I dont remember exactly how much we spend on the room, probably over 1000 dollars per night, it was not worth the money and the time.

Not until I came across a man at my Instagram page which tells me how forex trade works, I decided to give a try and I invested $5000 with him to be greatest surprise I got $60,000. As my trading profit in just 7 days him might not know how much help he has been to me,I'm doing this because I promise Mr nicholas if I got paid I will recommend him to people(@nicholasjmyron) on instagram and whatsapp:+1(518) 633-5966

    • @novelist1985
      @novelist1985 4 года назад

      Know this is really late reply, but right now the only real option is Qatar Airways. You could nab a business seat for 70K AA Miles out of DFW that would get you to Doha, than a 5 hour hop DOH-MLE. Once things settle down again, TK can also be a good option. Last time we went we flew TK MLE-IST-SFO J using UA miles.
