Hi Justin,

We went to Bali and the Maldives for our honeymoon and had a great time! We’ve also had a fantastic time in Thailand (Bangkok and the Phuket/Krabi Beach areas) and Vietnam. For a First Class honeymoon type of destination, I’d say the Maldives top our personal list!

Glad you’ve enjoyed reading the blog!

Jeffrey

I’ve been DM w/ Delta for the past 6 years, saved up a bunch of miles and it’s looking like my run is coming to an end this year, so I plan on using the Global Upgrades I have remaining to take the Fiancè somewhere sweet via First Class for our honeymoon, like Bali (insanely nice AirBnB places for rent for insanely good deals, about 100 bucks a night for a 5 bedroom mansion with a pool by the beach) but we are very open to ideas. I originally thought the Azores was where we were going to spend our honeymoon, as it’s a 4 hour flight from Boston, but only TAP and SATA fly to Ponta Delagada, and I’d hate to waste these upgrade certificates for the hundredth time on a ATL-Rio de Janeiro flight!

You should see the delight on a big dude’s face when you ask him “Hey, would you mind switching seats with me so I can sit next to my girl? I’m in 2B.”
