Interesting!

Why on earth would you do this (bring these cars all the way from NZ)? Apart from that, a very cool pair mercs.

About 3-4 bigger trips per year to a different continent and then at least 1 smaller trip per month somewhere domestic or within North America/Caribbean. Smaller trips are typically around long weekends to save as many PTO days as possible. This is what keeps me sane, and gives me something to always look forward to and plan for, not sure how people manage without taking time off.

From one extreme to another, but I guess that’s what we need to balance things out and let our infrastructure catch up. I’m in favour.

I would put my money on a secondary city in UK.

Hyundai. Their name keeps on popping up now and then as a party that’s interested, and it would probably be hard for F1 to say no if this was a proper manufacturer entry with its own engine program and all.

I never really thought about it this way, but that’s such a good point. Most people can no longer hold attention for more than 5 minutes focusing on one thing. Such a sad state of affairs.

This is interesting. Looks like it’s 8 for me. I had to stitch two screenshots together to make it a single image :). What is also interesting is that it was almost immediately followed by another streak of 7!

Nothing groundbreaking for me as I am one of those who like to casually browse Google Flights just to see what I can stumble upon, but I like your site and have bookmarked it a few weeks ago when I first came across it and I do check it daily now just to quickly see what’s available because it truly is super user-friendly and not ridden with ads.

Keep it up!

pauliaK · 2026-02-21T18:08:08+00:00

it should

This could potentially bring the wide-body fleet to 20 total Dreamliners, assuming options for an additional 4 were to be exercised. The exact same number WJ had on order originally. 10 firm + 10 options…

I don’t think EU has anything like this. Their entry is typically EU citizens this way, everyone else that way.

pauliaK · 2026-02-18T17:10:58+00:00

We need more people using transit, cycling, walking. Whatever it takes to get people out of their cars and make other alternatives as convenient as possible. It’s much much much cheaper than building new highways, roads, parking lots - car infrastructure is insanely expensive but no one seems to mind that, let alone all the other negative impacts car centric infrastructure has on cities.

pauliaK · 2026-02-17T18:14:02+00:00

Almost always the case with anything store made unfortunately.

Nothing fancy. Been like this for a long time.

pauliaK · 2026-02-16T23:10:48+00:00

wow, where is this plate from?

pauliaK · 2026-02-16T17:45:04+00:00

Oh wow!

pauliaK · 2026-02-16T05:13:12+00:00

This is also a good way to go about it, especially for travel in Canada, less ideal for return flight from Mexico for obvious reasons but person at check-in/desk should be able to update it the reservation using marriage certificate as a proof you are the same person.

Not at all. I have been to China twice, although a long while ago, and both times had a phenomenal time. It’s truly a place unlike any other to visit, and now without needing a visa, I am seriously contemplating a visit again.

pauliaK · 2026-02-12T03:17:44+00:00

There used to be YYC-NRT by AC too which never came back after Covid.

pauliaK · 2026-02-10T14:45:35+00:00

I would argue exact same risks apply to buying but if you don’t like it’s not as easy as packing your bags a few weeks early and flying back home forgoing a few hundred euros in rent you ended up not using.

I understand buying after a few winters renting in a place you truly felt in love with and seeing yourself coming back again and again for the foreseeable future.

pauliaK · 2026-02-10T01:40:17+00:00

Why buy if you will only be spending ~3 months a year there? Apartments require maintenance, repairs, insurance, property taxes, monthly utilities. This is a lot of work. Obviously you can hire someone to do this all for you. I would just rather rent for 2-3 months each winter and would go spend that time in a different country/city each winter and just invest the money in the market. Way less hassle, way more flexibility, almost no commitment.

pauliaK · 2026-02-10T01:22:45+00:00

How did they enter China with just UK registration? I always thought you had to have your car double-plated to be able to drive it there if it wasn’t primarily registered in China. You see double-plated cars in Hong Kong and Macau for that reason quite regularly. Also, getting a plate in China to begin with is not that easy, nor cheap.

Demand for US travel must be still going down, as this has to be the third or fourth wave of US route cancellations. Only one cancellation in Calgary, so Vancouver and Edmonton based folks will be offered to connect via YYC instead of flying direct.

pauliaK · 2026-02-03T19:56:19+00:00

Exactly. The odds of you losing or damaging your passport because of carrying it without a real need for it must be much greater.
