I will be going back home tomorrow. I plan to be home till 27th or 28th of April and then come back to Ankara. After Ramadan Feast, I want to head to Antalya. I will probably stay till June 7th or 8th.
The idea of going to the US in July started to grow on me. Although, now it is more expensive than ever, I think, I should be able to do it on the income I will have generated by then through just one of my part-time jobs.
I used to buy lots of brand name clothing items for SIS, BIL and Uncle but, looking at their wardrobes, let alone needing anything, they have excess. Last time I really went overboard on shopping for them. This time, just a couple of well worth items will be sufficient as gifts.
I think, I will fly with Turkish Airlines this time. They have 4 direct flights to NY every day and they allow 2 suitcases for free per person. Less expensive flights have one stop and they allow only one suitcase. I always pay excess baggage so, the price matches the direct flight. I also like to break the trip to stretch my legs but, with the pandemic still very effective, I think it is better to fly direct.

After I wrote the above my BFF M, whom I will be visiting in the US, called me and we watched the final episode of The Night Manager. I told her that I started looking up airfare and she said she wants to come visit for a week or so too. So, we are going to try to see if she can come with me on my return trip and spend a week here in Turkey. Yay! That would be awesome!
Off I go to check airfare.
Good luck with your ticket search!
ReplyDeleteI think it is exciting that you are planning a trip to the states. In fact you are just a traveler right now. You only get one life so you might as well spend it doing what you like to do and seeing those who are important to you!
I hope you can find a reasonable ticket. We just came back from a family trip to Puerto Rico ( 4 days) and the flight was packed. I hope to see you in NY.
