We've booked through virgin Atlantic (one way is a code share with delta though), as they were the cheapest. I wanted to book with Norwegian as they were fantastic to Florida this year and generally very cheap, but I missed their cheapest price as DH didn't have his leave authorised in time, so I ended up with Virgin and it was roughly the same price as NA, but with more baggage (I'd of only paid for two cases with Norwegian, but with VA there will be four between us). 👍

Yes I’d like 20 but don’t think
I could squeeze the extra days from work. And I want to come home on the Friday so that I have a full day Sunday to recover before going back on the Monday 🙄.

I have air miles with Virgin to pay for the flights, I have enough for PE return but would I be better just to go Economy as it’s a relatively short long haul flight and save the miles to use for PE to the West Coast in a couple of years?

just done New England.
5 nights in Boston,
1 in Kennebunkport (lobster roll here was lovely)
2 in Portland (lovely)
5 in North Conway (white mountains - lots of places to visit - and no sales tax, there is a nice shopping outlet here!)
1 night in Vermont (need to go back here - looked lovely driving through it)
3 nights in cape cod (Hyannis) we did the day ferry to Martha’s Vineyard - great place

At the moment I have planned
4 night New York
2 nights Boston
3 nights White Mountains
3 nights a Green Mountains
4 nights Cape Cod

Not sure yet, but think 5 different stops is about right. And really want to do New York.
