Sorry for the delay everyone! I’ve been playing catch up now that I’m back from the field. And with the chance of the university shutting down, I figured I’d have time when working from home to work on this. Low and behold, Liverpool has cancelled classes, so I now have time! Upon arrival into ChicagoContinue reading “Flight #2 back from New Mexico: Chicago to Munich”

Flight #1 from New Mexico back to Liverpool!
I’m back in the UK now after the trip to New Mexico to collect some rocks! Annique and I brought back over 200 lbs of rocks in 5 checked bags between the two of us (all free!). Amazingly, at the premier access check-in at El Paso airport, they didn’t even bat an eye. The TSAContinue reading “Flight #1 from New Mexico back to Liverpool!”
Flight #3 to New Mexico!
We’ve finished day 8 and are almost done with our field work! And I’m just now getting around to part 3… just in time in 2 days to travel back to the UK and have 3 more flights to review… My bad. Good news though, my complimentary upgrade for the flight from El Paso toContinue reading “Flight #3 to New Mexico!”
Trip to New Mexico part 2!
Our sampling trip is still going well! We’ve just finished day 5 and already have over 100 lbs of rocks! This is great. We had to go back to Las Cruces and El Paso for some sampling and to get the drill, which just got delivered by DHL. We had some extra time yesterday, soContinue reading “Trip to New Mexico part 2!”

Bonus Club Europe flight for me!
This is a continuation of the previous post for Club Europe from Helsinki Upon arriving in London, Krister and I parted ways. I continued on to Manchester after a connection in Heathrow. Flights from Helsinki on both BA and Finnair arrive into Terminal 3, so I had to take a shuttle bus for arriving passengersContinue reading “Bonus Club Europe flight for me!”
BA Club Europe from Helsinki
Krister and I finished up our short weekend trip to Norway and Finland with a Club Europe flight (BA799) from Helsinki to London (from where I then connected to Manchester). Helsinki’s Vantaa airport is one of my favorites. It’s well-connected to the city by the I and the P suburban trains. It took us lessContinue reading “BA Club Europe from Helsinki”
More Finnair business class!
I took a long weekend trip last week (2/2/20) to Norway and Finland to join Krister, who was working in Oslo, for some sightseeing and some skiing (and because I’d never been to Norway). I had arrived in Norway Friday night on an SAS youth fare (I only get to take advantage of them forContinue reading “More Finnair business class!”
Finnair Business Class (HEL-OSL)
Krister travelled on Finnair flight AY917 (operated by Norra) from Helsinki to Oslo in business class. Krister started his trip at the Finnair Schengen lounge, which both his business class ticket and BA silver card gives him access to. His 19:15 flight meant that he was in the lounge at dinner time, but he optedContinue reading “Finnair Business Class (HEL-OSL)”
