Next Vacation - Ideas

[avadah]

there are a # of places with kosher food. do you mean kosher restaurants, supermarkets or Chabad selling foodstuffs?

Restaurants would be great but supermarkets are also good.

    Not Hawaii?

Better file a chargeback for your geography classes

Give me some credit! I know HNL is not in the Caribbean! I just didn't think it would stop you from recommending it. 
Why do you recommend SJU?

[AJK]

Looking at taking a quick 5-6 day jaunt somewhere in late Feb.

Currently exploring SXM, AUA, EZE, LIH, SJO.

Any recommendations?

Would ideally like to take advantage of WN CP + Hyatt Diamond, but not imperative, especially if I can use Avios instead.

LIH

Still can't believe you haven't been there yet.

Problem with LIH is the lack of lie-flat award space...

Does it open close-in?

Look at availability for the next 2 weeks and you'll get a good idea. On UA, I have found that EWR-HNL is very rare. If you're willing to stop in ATL, maybe you can get DL availability (or I think ORD and somewhere in Texas have AA lie flat?).

In terms of WN CP, I've searched a few times for flights to the different int'l destinations. Most only have routes 1-2 times per week which makes it hard + they're not cheap compared to domestic WN.

EZE or LIH for sure.

EZE/IGR or LIH for sure.

FTFY.

FTFY.

IGR means you also need to get a BR visa.
Once you do that you need to do GIG as well

I wouldn't hesitate a second to recommend AJK get a BR visa. It's almost impossible he won't be back there within the next 10 years. Besides, at least next time an airline retires their first class he won't have to go through that scare

lol

IGR is that must-see? Remember only 5-6 days max.

[Joe4007]

Most definitely.

3 days EZE, 2 days IGR.

[Dan]

IGR is mind-blowing.

[Yehoshua]

IGR is mind-blowing.

+1000000

+ MAO.

[AJK]

Right. In 5 days, I'll do EZE, GRU, GIG, MAO, IGU, SYD, AKL, HNL, and BOB.

[MC]

C'mon, only one Hawaiian island?

[Dan]

5 days is EZE+IGR or LIH

I'm looking to book my rosh yeshiva a vacation for 2 weeks from now. Since I need to raise the funds/miles I do not want it to be too expansive. I want to book him Thursday night till Sunday night. I don't care where it is as long as it's really nice and not too expensive any ideas?
