MisterAirmiles: Live BA Disruption Update!

You would have to be hiding from the media for the last two days if you have failed to read about the issues that British Airways are having with their IT systems. This resulted in an almost total cancellation of the schedule on Saturday and chaos today. Unsurprisingly, given that this is the start of the… Read More MisterAirmiles: Live BA Disruption Update!

Is Heathrow Express Business First worth the money?

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: I love the Heathrow Express. I even once spent £225 in one go booking up transfers for my summer of travel. An offer came through for me to get a free business class upgrade on my next journey, but I didn’t pay much attention to it as… Read More Is Heathrow Express Business First worth the money?

Episode 6 – the wide-bodies’ ageing cousin

We had booked the shuttle bus to the airport for 0800, but there was one outside and leaving at 0750 so we jumped on that one, and were at the airport 10 minutes later. In contrast to Frankfurt, which we found to be very tricky to navigate, Madrid is a breeze. We went via Fast… Read More Episode 6 – the wide-bodies’ ageing cousin

Is my £225 on airport transfers good value?

The Heathrow Express is one of many ways to get to the airport but it is my favourite. Last year I wrote an article on it with a comparison to other options, and it has got even better. There is now the option to buy tickets in advance and the further ahead you book, the… Read More Is my £225 on airport transfers good value?

Things that I APPreciate

Sorry for the bad pun – I can’t help myself! I wanted to share some of my favourite apps for travelling which make my life easier. Some are ones which I use all the time to help plan, track or just geek out, and others are ones I use when I am on the go. AwardWallet… Read More Things that I APPreciate

A weekend in Belfast

This was a short weekend away in Belfast for the wedding of a university friend; fitting it in around work commitments meant we could only spend 2 nights away. I booked the trip at the end of December and we departed on Friday 31st July. We took the Heathrow Express to the airport, using a… Read More A weekend in Belfast

Is the Heathrow Express worth the money?

According to this BBC Article published in 2012, the Heathrow Express is the most expensive stretch of railway working out at £1.17 a mile for the 15 minute journey (21 mins to T5). But does that mean it is not worth the money? I live a couple of stops on the tube from Paddington Stations where the HEx departs… Read More Is the Heathrow Express worth the money?
