Still working on trying to get there. Thursday flight is ruled out due to work but looking at Friday getting in to PHX at around 23:28 EEK but that's not the end of the world.....

This would give me Saturday and Sunday but then leaving PHX at 22:20 Sunday and a horrific 14 hour layover at JFK. Its the return that's posing problems - might have to book a return on the Monday lunchtime and stay somewhere the Sunday night. Flight prices are no different really coming back Sunday or Monday.

So, any suggestions for Sunday night? This might be what it all hinges on.... Still do-able (is that a word you use, do-able?).
I am staying in a hotel Wednesday night. There are tons of hotel options. Just go on Expedia.
Sorry the house isn’t ready or you could stay with us. Of course you would have to bring Bing.

booked it.PNG
There we go, 36 hours of travel including layovers - about 45 hours in AZ. Its Manchester-London Heathrow(1h15m)-Seattle (9h55m)-Phoenix (3h4m) coming back via Atlanta (3h33)-London (8h)-Manchester (1h5m). Piece of piss.

I'll either sleep all 45 hours or stay awake all 45 - that's up to you guys 8-)

BOOKED - it's ON !!! :lol:
Nice! This is your first time right??? :D
