🌎 Snapshots from WTM!
.
This year, for the first time, I attended #WTMLDN as a blogger - at first, it was super overwhelming, and while I wouldn't recommend a daily commute to it from Ireland, overall it was a great event, with so many fascinating stands, great opportunities for networking, and just so much to see in the few days!
.
A quick overview (and a few tips) for any other travel bloggers thinking about it for next year now on the blog - windowseatpreferred.com/wtm24
.
Have you been? What did you think of it?

📷 Guess The Lounge 🥂
From #Athens to #Dublin with @aegeanairlines in Business Class - a quick photo tour, for those not bothered reading the blog (did I ever mention, 'link in bio'? 😁)
.
- Incredibly peaceful, spacious lounge with great views; the only issue was we just didn't have enough time to really make use of the bar (3rd pic - no surprise that I felt that merited its own feature).
- Classic short-haul European business cabin BUT...with decent seats, an actual middle seat table, really good food, and - prepare the fireworks for this act of EU airline exorbitance - a pre-departure Champagne 🥂
- As an added bonus, @isha_aquaphile & I were treated to additional complimentary in-flight entertainment; Row 1 getting rapidly wasted (not because of the crew - one or two seemed to be all it took) and all that brought. 😬
.
Have you flown with Aegean? Or received complimentary in-flight entertainment like us? 🤣

✈️ Travel Hacks That Work? What online viral t

✈️ Travel Hacks That Work?
What online viral travel hacks actually work and aren't completely ridiculous?
.
On the blog today I share - not that anyone asked - my top most-resented, completely useless viral 'travel hacks' that seem to be doing the rounds (4th link in bio, or windowseatpreferred.com/hacks)
.
Top of the list for me has to be the current fave 'leave the middle seat empty' hack, where some poor solo traveller has to either get into awkward conversation with you, or sit in between two people that know each other.
.
Following that closely, would have to be the idea of dressing up nicely and/or bringing gifts for the crew and/or mentioning 'revenue management' (what is that even supposed to do?) with the sole intention of blagging a free upgrade.
.
Of the several times I've been upgraded, none involved a particularly noteworthy sartorial form, or gifts for the crew.
.
Have a read, and let me know what I should've added (or maybe removed) from the list!

We had an awesome time last weekend in Milos, Greece - made all the better by balcony breakfasts and lazy poolside lunches with these stunning views from our hotel!

🌞 Summer Days
.
...Because I disagree with anyone who says Halloween is nearly here, or it's "starting to get cold", or "won't be long until Christmas" 🤣 Nope, it isn't and I'll thank you to just let me live in my delusion that we're still in the peak of summer 😁
.
Having said that, in all honesty this pic was actually taken about 5 minutes before me and @isha_aquaphile had to take shelter on the side of a muddy ditch in a bog from an absolute rain downpour. So...summer...🤷‍♂️

Goodbye, Rome 🇮🇹
.
Didn't you see all my Rome stories? No? Well, they're very much "coming soon" - we spent all the time walking, eating, drinking (in no particular order) ..
.
But we've been, had a great time, struggled through the heat and enjoyed this wonderful #windowseat take-off view!

🕰 Behold! Bygone Business Class
.
📸 Here's a few pics from an ancient time (actually, only 2019) before the advent of sliding doors and the concept of privacy as a selling point 😯
.
Back in the olden days - when you drank and tried to sleep in full view of every single person in the cabin, but had a ridiculous amount of storage space and a whole uncovered footrest, plus enough floorspace between that and your seat to pitch a small tent ⛺️
.
Who else has had the chance to experience this incredibly generous @omanairofficial business class layout?
.
Though I love privacy and sliding doors, this was an absolute classic for sheer amount of space per person 😆

🌴 Koh Lipe Lazy Days
.
You pretty much can't not take a great picture on Koh Lipe, even if you try 🤩
.
We came here first several years ago and visited again earlier this year - it's definitely gotten busier, a little pricier; but is still infinitely quieter, easier to get around and - I'd argue - more stunning, than the more easily accessible destinations on the Thai mainland.
.
If you're considering a visit, and want to do it before it becomes full-scale tourist destination, now is absolutely the time to go!
