My only issue is that I’m usually in London late fall early spring… Therefore never close to F1 season to take advantage… Hope to be able to match schedules to a couple of races next year when things normalize a bitmwillems wrote:Nice, I'd love to be flying to New York for meetings, it's a place in the US I've wanted to go to! Most of my work in the US was in California so I'd be staying in a hotel in Costa Mesa. Now that travel I didn't mind, as popping to Huntingdon beach at the weekend and getting an oreo shake on the pier was always a treat. Or sunbathing by the Santa Monica voleyball courts....SmallSoldier wrote: ↑16 Jul 2021, 18:04Wow! Getting dressed up to fly? That’s a no-no for me… As comfortable as possible, but not on sweat pants (unless is an overnight flight of 6+ hours… For those, I wear my PJ’s!)mwillems wrote: Morning? Where are you?
I used to have to travel for work, back in my twenties. Staying in hotels drove me mad after a while, aside from Jet Lag. In fact part of the reason for my silliness was getting a role today for a bank where I can work from home for 4 days a week, in fact don't think I could ever go back to the travel again, maybe once in a while! It had some very enjoyable perks however as I'm sure you enjoy, eating out, meeting people, lovely hotels. But my companies always sent me cattle class, which I hated
I heard about the rule of dressing smart for the flight because the companies didn't like to have empty seats in premier class, so I'd go in shoes, trousers and shirt and as often as not get upgraded. They'd make a phone call at the check in desk, to which I'd imagine there was a supervisor who was able to see me via a camera, and decided if I could be one of those folks! Only Airtline I struggled with was BA, who's staff tended to act quite.... entitled...!
I’m in the US… That’s why sometimes I’m pretty late to the conversations some of you have
I would say that I travel my fair share… Already a 2 million miler with Delta Airlines and million miler with American Airlines… I have top status, so I get upgraded fairly often (even if on jeans and golf shirt).
Flying back home from some meetings in NY… 4 more hours in the air and I’ll be home!!! I’ll follow qualifying with the fans here… I won’t be able to see it since the internet in the plane blocks F1TV
