Happy Christmas to you and your family from all of the team here at HfP.

For the first time in three years, 2022 should – strikes permitting – be a Christmas when you have been able to travel to see loved ones, or just to escape the grey skies in the UK. Let us know in the comments what you are up to.

For once, all three of us on the core HfP team are in the UK this Christmas. Rhys can’t sit still for long, however, and will be heading off to Toronto in a few days. I will be spending New Year in Scotland. Sinead is taking it easy here but has drawn the long straw to do some Maldives hotel reviews in January!

Thank you for your support over the past year.

We will slowly get back into things tomorrow as Rhys and I look back over our year in travel.

With our best wishes,

Rob, Rhys and Sinead

    Merry Christmas everyone at HfP headquaters and of course the community! I’m in London this year after extensive travels this year. Need some rest for a few days before it all starts again. Off to Morocco next week then it’s Japan and Taiwan followed by Peru, Bolivia and Chile at Easter and West Africa during summer.

    Hope 2023 is an epic one for everyone!

    Merry Christmas to the team and the community from Grey Berkshire. At least it’s not raining today

    Merry Christmas everyone. Thanks to Rob, Rhys and Sinead for all the hard work. By my counting we are entering year 9 of me reading HfP daily (even since relocating 5 years ago to the US!) so thanks for the tips over the years.

    We are at home for Christmas in possibly the only warm state in the US this year, CA. Driving the 8hours down to the excellent Park Hyatt Aviara in Carlsbad, CA tomorrow for a couple of days R&R.

      We are in the Florida Keys – only about 60F today but definitely better than the north!

        Brrr that’s cold for FL (and CA)- was 89 in Nov in MIA when I was over for work. We are 72 today which isn’t too shabby! Enjoy the Keys.

    Merry Christmas to the whole HfP team. The articles and constant great advice from Rob here has seen us go from, new to the UK points game 5 years ago after moving from Australia, to GGL, Hilton Diamond, IHG Diamond and drowning in points. Countless J and F long haul trips, suite upgrades and great trips all thanks to the informative content put out all year round.

    I hope you all have a wonderful break and thank you for everything!

    Merry Christmas 🎄 from the rather blustery Florida Keys! Fortunately it won’t spoil our plan of eating, drinking and sitting in the hot tub 😂Pretty much all done on points accumulated during the pandemic, which is a great use of them 😃. Dinner will be Surf n Turf followed by Key Lime pie 🥧. Hope you’re all having a lovely day 🍾

      ¡Felices fiestas, Anita! Hope the rest of your trip is fab, and that the Willard decorations were good!

      Look up Blue Heaven if you are still in Key West – have the banana bread and everything else….
