North Korea would make a very interesting observational trip. I really can't think of any more intriguing to be honest.


RE: places you want to go to - Michael - 03 Oct 2013

Forgot about North Korea, would be very intresting.
What did he say about it?


RE: places you want to go to - MrFozz - 04 Oct 2013

I would love to visit loads of places I would love to go, some I could easy afford if I could be arsed to save up and some that are probably once in a lifetime...

Close to home I would love to go on a tour of North + West Europe visiting WWII Battlefields, would love to goto Berlin and see places like Checkpoint Charlie, would love to visit former Nazi Camps in Poland as well. I would also love to goto Moscow.

Further afield, I would love to vist China, North Korea, India, Australia and New Zealand and the Falkland Islands. Remind me how much Euromillions is tonight please.

If the chance ever arises, then I want to goto Oahu in Hawaii to vist the Arizona Memorial at Pearl Harbor and would love to visit Alcatraz

Canada, Australia and The Maldives.

Three places on my bucket list that I haven't managed to get to on business or pleasure related trips.

I have always fancied visiting some of the ex-Communist Countries (managed to see the former East Germany, Czech Republic and former Yugoslavia - when it still was Yugoslavia, but after the fall).

I would love to check out places like Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia...I have heard that Riga, Vilnius and Tallinn are quite nice and interesting places, but I have always been interested in Russia, the women are beautiful...hence the Marxista Fozzski signature when I use Tapatalk Wink

I have often thought about a tour of those countries, using the ferries to cross the Baltic and seeing a bit more of Norway, Denmark and Sweden as well as tagging Finland in.

Dublin is full of Lithuanians, Lativans etc. Get yourself over there for a bit perv haha

I can remember when a lot of GNE drivers were Eastern Europeans, I remember going to see Sunderland play Burnley in 2007, the 61 was full of football fans, Me and My mate were hosting 3 Burnley Supporters from Keighley, when the driver saw Sunderland and Burnley on his bus his was a picture and thought he was going to burst into tears when we started to sing some of the more controversial England National Team Songs, I always had the idea he was German, but found out he was Polish...

Back on topic anyway, I love the Island of Ireland, moreso The North and Belfast, where I did a bit perving with a couple of female natives and a Canadian Big Grin

New York and Boston, although I do want to travel the World, one of the reasons I'm doing Geography.

Yes!!!
The Sonesta Resort, you wouldn't want to go KLM, it takes longer as the plane also stops at Curaco.
If I go it would be Air France.

Mind I am looking forward to my probable trip to Costa Rica on a dreamliner

I think it stops at St Maarteen first as its closer to Amsterdam and then will continue to Curacao which is south of St Maarteen of the coast of Venezuela.
Air France have a higher density configuration in Standard though, And KLMs 747s are retiring in the next few years because of its 787 order.

I like the thought of a 747 because I have only ever been on one, a BA example to Singapore when I was 2 in 2007. I am doing a lot of planned Long Haul coming up, I went to Australia last winter for a wedding with Emirates, they have very good in flight entertainment! I am off Thomson to either Costa Rica or Mexico in May 2017 and New York in the July. I am also planning Florida in 2018

Never been on a 747 yet and I'm 13! Its a good job BA are keeping a few till the end of the 2020s.

Austrailia on Emraites sounds a treat, 777W from Newcastle and A380 to Australia unless it was Perth which I think is booked 77Ws

New York is amazing i recommend you do that.

I'm off to Florida in 3 weeks, to see my Family that live over there.

If united make year round flights I will go with them, if not I will use Aer Lingus
I went to Brisbane, where from to Florida?

This year is believed to be the last year United review their Passenger numbers for the route, Next year I believe will be the start of year long services.
Dubai to Brisbane uses a A380 doesn't it?
Last year was Untied to Newark from Newcastle, Spent 4 days in New York then another 757 to Orlando then its a Hour drive down Interstate 4 to Tampa -
Which is where some of my family live.

This year will be direct to Orlando, On the 8th April using Thompsons 787 then the usual 1 hour drive down Interstate 4 to Tampa.

Yup. I was downstairs Sad
It would probably be easier to go from Gatwick Tongue 
You can go Newark to Tampa with United.
I do hope United do it year-round mind

I recommended all them things to my Dad but he goes for the cheapest which at the time was Orlando Tongue
I wouldn't mind doing BA to Tampa from Gatwick mind, But cost comes into it again.

Though its not confirmed, The flights were mostly fully-booked last year so I wouldn't be surprised if this years the same.
I'll try to find the article I read about it being 2 years till year round services for you.
