  • It cost me how much?! What is it like to fly 120,000 miles in First Class during worldwide lockdown ... my most ambitious travel to date!
    Follow my travels live on IG: will.luxurytravel
    I started 2020 as many did, thinking this would be my year i'd travel more, see more and experience new places. I did indeed hit off the travel more part but under a totally different guise to what I'd expected. Wearing masks have become the norm whilst in airports, on planes and even on the ground in many countries around the world. The landscape of travel has totally changed.
    I took a total of 60 flights throughout 2020, of course I can't feature all of these in one video but here are the highlights:
    British Airways 787-9 First Class LHR - SJC
    Delta 737 First Class SFO - LAX
    JAL 777 First Class LAX - NRT
    Asiana A330 Business Class NRT - ICN
    Emirates A380 First Class ICN - DXB
    Emirates 777 First Class DXB - LHR
    British Airways A350 Premium Economy LHR - YYZ
    Porter Airlines Dash 8-400 (One Class Economy) YTZ - MDW
    British Airways 747 Business Class ORD - LHR
    British Airways A320 Business Class LHR - GLA
    Iberia A350 Business Class LHR - MAD
    Iberia A320 Economy MAD - BRU
    British Airways 787-8 Business Class AMS - LHR
    Turkish A330 Business Class DUS - IST
    Qatar Airways 777 Business Class IST - DOH
    Swiss A340 Business Class ZRH - LHR
    British Airways A320 Business Class LHR - AMS
    Turkish 787-9 Business Class AMS - IST
    British Airways 787-8 Business Class LHR - MAD
    Qatar Airways A350-900 Business Class MAD - DOH
    Emirates 777 First Class LHR - DXB
    Emirates A380 Business Class DXB - LHR
    British Airways A350 Business Class LHR - DXB
    Etihad 787-9 First Class DXB - JFK

    Will, pls do more of these summaries. So nice to see how you grew and changed from a novice to an expert in travel. How your routines and habits evolved. How much you learned. Impressive . I wish I had traveled more during pandemic instead of staying stuck at home.
    Would also be nice to learn more about you, Millie, your fam, and what you do in between trips.

    Iberia: New A350, same crap service. We flew Iberia A340-600 Madrid to Johannesburg in around 2007. No IFE. Horrible food. It was worse than Ryanair. I still think that the BA Business Class seat you had from Amsterdam to Heathrow looks like you were crammed into a cupboard under someone's stairs. You could hardly get your backpack in there and when you were waving, you may as well have been waving at your family during visiting hours at the local jail. BA is certainly winning the race to the bottom and is followed by Turkish.
    We enjoy the champagne, beer, cognac, whiskey, wine and on and on when travelling (and even when not).
    Pro tip: Take a spare liver with you and swap it out at regular intervals.😁

    In that BA flight back from Chicago, you mentioned you had some salmon and chicken supreme, while pointing your camera at your friend. So is your friend a chicken supreme? 🤣

    Does british airways have massive fuel surcharges if you used award bookings? Also can you make a video on what award bookings you use etc.

    At 15:30, what does he mean by 'under the guise of rona cuts'? All I can find online is something like a home improvement or hardware company that also has an air miles programme?

    You should also do a flight to Mexico. Mexico is also a nice country especially around Querétaro and the ranches of Santa María de Los Baños y Chichimequillas. I´m actually currently here as I flew from Panama City, Florida to Dallas, Texas, then from Dallas, Texas to Querétaro, Mexico. Also since I speak Spanish most of the time, the people here is very easy to talk to.
