Still haven't finished planning my Japan trip in January. This is just beginning stages.
If so.. You wanna start planning before Oct 31...

If you do decide to do TLV and you wanna fly JFK-TLV on DL you can PM me if you have a hard time finding availability.

I need some guidance. I have 7-8 days at any point this winter for a vacation. I would love to combine an exotic beautiful place with some premium cabins along the way (as most people do around here). However, here is my issue, I can either go to the Maldives and spend 4 days of the precious time I have, flying in some beautiful products (EY F SQ R etc.) but that would leave me with a mere 3-4 days in paradise. Or I can fly to Hawaii (I've never been) and not get the luxury flying experiences of the aforementioned airlines but I would have a longer stay? Please weigh in with some pros and cons TIA.

I would do Hawaii. At the end of the day, it's about the location and it doesn't make sense to spend half of your vacation traveling, even if you were doing it in a premium cabin.

+1 I'd choose Hawaii as well. Are you traveling with family?

Infant will be 3 months. We enjoy relaxing and taking in breathtaking views in warm climates.

Why not just stick to the Caribbean?
If you can leave the infant with someone I'd say do MLE now while there's just 1 to watch...
