When we went to Orlando in April, we also had to wait ages on the plane, they lost my luggage and we had to queue 3 hours at the Avis desk 😥 and we just had to take the car as the issue was that they had no cars, so it was one car returned, one car given out! We didn’t arrive at our hotel until 1am Orlando time 😓😓😓 I feel your pain.
Wow that sure was a long day for you two but I’m with Gemma….you’re on vacation so the rest doesn’t matter. Everything was straightened out and you got there. Can’t wait for the rest of the vlogs!
Great vlogs. Looking forward for next vlog. We found if you phone hotel in usa direct from uk the day of travel they will reserve a good room with your requests. 😊
How did you guys get into all those sky lounges at the airport? Did you have to pay or are you members? Hoping to check out the new Delta Sky lounge in Laguardia Airport next week. But we aren't members wish us luck! :) Also love Royal Pacific we stayed there before too :)
When flying business with a One World airline, you are able to use all of the One World lounges too. We hope you enjoy the lounge and have a safe trip.
Ooh cool I didn’t realise you could do this. So just an ordinary business class ticket? You don’t have any extra membership class levels? I just don’t want to walk to these lounges with my normal BC ticket and get turned away! 😳 Thank you for your educational content! 😊
Great vlog guys ..as per ..! Travelling on same flight in business class mid November. Hoping it's the club suites we get to. What was the deal with the car hire ? We ve booked through DFCH to ,Andy gave us an amazing price but I'm now concerned about what the car hire company will try giving us now after seeing this vlog.
Thank you Gavin, glad you enjoyed it. So Andy gave us a really good deal too, I think it was more of Avis' systems not being correct. We would book through Andy again for sure.
I was thinking the same, or at least works in aerospace. My partner works in the aerospace industry and likes to enlighten me on the specific plane engine, age of plane, model etc etc. 🙃
Sounding a little bit privileged there Steve with the moaning. Valet parking, followed by the nicest lounge I've ever seen pre flight and then business class seats for flight. Try long stay parking, being in a mobbed terminal and then flying economy :(
Privileged ? Moaning ? It doesn’t matter which cabin you’re in, Upper or Economy, you would still be fed up sitting on a plane for two hours after landing. Then being told at car hire you haven’t paid when you have…..
@@hayleya958 I just think sometimes you need to take a step back and think how fortunate you are to be able to go to all these places several times a year and always fly business. Most people would give their right arm to have that opportunity. In the whole scheme of things waiting an extra 2 hours is nothing.
Cocktails, champagne and sparkling wine in the AM!? Sounds like a Travel Day 🎉😁💃🏻🕺🏻
It is indeed a travel day!!!

Steve and Gemma you are real troopers for such a long travel day. Thanks for sharing your adventure with us
Awwe thank you, not a hardship at all when we have Florida at the end of it.
Nice bit of lounge hopping 👍👍👍. Thanks for an enjoyable vlog
Thanks Andy, it was good to try some new lounges!
Thanks,that's stunning video-work,see ya!,💫

Yes, exactly! It all sorts itself out in the end
Welcome back! Love following your adventures!
Yay! Thank you!
Haha a hopper pass for the lounges, love it. I take it you can only do this when you book business class or is it an extra add on?
Yes it was possible as we flew business. Nice to see the different lounges, got to make the most of the perks! 😂
Great vlogs. Looking forward for next vlog. We found if you phone hotel in usa direct from uk the day of travel they will reserve a good room with your requests. 😊
Thanks for the tip, that is really good to know!
Great video as always! Gemma, your jacket is fabulous, I need to find one like it! :)
Thank you. Love a jacket with a bold print!
Wow what a long day guys , dunno same happened to us issues with air bridge so stuck on plane losing precious time , great vlog love travel day
Oh man, it’s a bummer when you get there early or on time. Holiday time is limited so you want to make the most of it!
Really enjoyed 😉
Thank you Graham! Glad you enjoyed it.

Great travel day. Did Steve really eat 5 eggs in the day is that a record.
In hindsight maybe a bad idea!
very nice vid. regards your new friend from sweden

Is Steve a pilot?

How many eggs in one day? It's nice to see a vlog that tells it like it was but without moaning and trying to claim something for free
Now you point it out we did eat too many eggs that day and thank you for kind words :-)
Do they actually check your vaccine status in the US or do they just wave you through?
They didn't ask for ours, however, ba do ask for your last jab date to be uploaded on a app from your nhs app, about 72 hours before
@@carolinequye9098 OK thanks. I guess I'll just have to wait until they drop the requirement.

@@nickemwoods5668 I’d tolerate both those things if it meant spending the next 3 weeks in Florida. Unfortunately I ain’t that lucky.
So Dan you think people that can afford or have saved up for upper class, valet parking etc can not be upset or annoyed at situations?

Why watch the vlog, then?
