YouTubeLast night my wife and I went out for dinner without the kids (it’s been a long time since we last did that) and we were talking about my trip to Ottawa this summer. As I mentioned in an earlier post the flight is booked but for the return portion I was on a waiting list. The thing is I could get off the list by spending more airmiles to fly business class. Well over dinner we decided to use the airmiles to do that.
Around 10pm last night we received a text message that the flight was confirmed. I’ll now be flying economy and not using the extra 20,000 miles needed to upgrade. I’m happy about saving the miles, but after having decided to use them am also a little disappointed to not be flying business class – Seoul to Toronto is about 15 hours and that’s a really long time to be cramped like a sardine.
Oh well, I’m happy everything is confirmed. Now I need to book a room and arrange a car rental.

What airline are you flying with? There are often ways of getting more comfortable seats without paying for an upgrade. In the large airbuses for instance, with the 3 rows of 3 seats there are usually a few rows of 2 seats in the back on either side of the middle row. Those seats are usually bigger and have more legroom and don’t cost any more to choose. If you can snag one of those on the aisle you should be fine.
