What does category have anything to do with anything other than ADR/REVPAR?

Looking for a short 2/3 day trip -
Would be leaving from TLV so I'm thinking somewhere in Italy where I can use Flying Blue miles.
I've done Milan and Venice.
I'm not interested in doing Rome at the moment.
Any other ideas?
If not I may go back to Venice.
Open to other suggestions as well.

What interests you in a city? Pompeii maybe? Though you cant really go wrong with going to vce again

Cyprus
ETA: didn't see the part about using flying blue miles. Other than that cyprus is a very good option

Cyprus remains the least interesting country I have ever flown to

Since my LOR ~~doesn't allow me~~ says that it's not allowed to stay in HI over Friday/Shabbos, I'm thinking if I should go Thu - Mon to LAX or LAS.
I was in LAX for a week a couple of years back, so I would rather want to see LAS. My problem is that to LAS there is no Non-Stop flights (with this I can live), but more important, I can't find any reward tickets to LAS (from LIH) or from LAS to EWR.
I have a lot of Chase, and enough for 1 ticket with AA on regular rewards ( I need two tickets).

So I will be on the Alps in Austria from Wed-Sun. I wanna leave the alps Sunday morning and visit some place in Europe. I can fly out of SZG if need be. I don't mind some tours of WW2. I don't have any preferences. I just want something nice and rememberable. I have until Wed.

Great skiing there, though once you land in YUL you still got a 2 hour drive.

Is the drive the catch here?? It does the weather or more play a role in this?? Or was it simply overlooked since it's not as exotic as all the other locations??

Fantastic mountain. Highly recommended.

Have you been there yourself?? How many days would you say to spend there??

AJK · « **Reply #2833 on:** July 26, 2015, 11:32:36 PM »

Yes. And I could easily spend 3 days there.

3 days skiing in a row? your knees must be in great shape.. When I ski in Switzerland I need to take breaks in between days when I ski.. the skiing is pretty stressful on my knees & i'm a young guy.

Age is nothing but a number. It's all about the stamina, and how one takes care of their body.
