Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from Turning Left For Less 2023

Turning left for less will be taking a break over Christmas for a few days from today. We will, as usual, be publishing our selection of the best Christmas aviation-themed new and old favourite videos over the next few days. TLFL will be back on 27 December with a slightly later-than-usual email. 

All my regular contributors and I would like to wish all our readers a very Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays. Thanks to all of you who have taken the time to submit a reader review; it’s been a great help to share more travel stories. 

I also look forward to meeting some of you at the Turning Left for Less Reader Party on 19 January. Further details should be released in early January. 

 

Finnair – new videos

I’m not the only one that has been trying out Finnair’s innovative new business class seats this year…

For 2023, there is a very sweet new video:

 

British Airways

There are a couple of  Christmas videos from BA this year. The first is a feel good look at their Big Little Welcomes initiative that has allowed people to write special welcome home messages for people. 

There is also one that shows all the Christmas treats you can expect when flying with BA over the Xmas period.

 

2021

 

2019

If you want to see how they prepared to stage this event and the rehearsals, here is the full version:

Watch out for some really special new Christmas aviation videos tomorrow and Boxing day.

    2. There’s clearly a lot of detail and hard work that goes into your insights Michele so a huge thank you to you and your team for all of your advice to keep us travelling in the style we all deserve! It’s been an awful year but I have a feeling 2022 will be much better, so all the best to you and yours.

  6. Happy Holidays Michele to you and the team.
    Your travel tips and ideas have helped me achieve BA Gold plus I’ve enjoyed seeing all these new ‘ex Europe’ destinations before my actual holidays!.
    Best, Michael

  7. Wishing the team a very happy Christmas and we look forward to a new year of trips.
    Like Michael we too have enjoyed having a pre-holiday visit to various European cities.
    Invaluable tips learnt!

  8. Merry Christmas to the team. TLFL is usually my first read of the day, while I have my tea and toast.

  9. Looks like you’ve gained a tattoo of champagne glass on your left arm during the course of the last year!
    Merry Christmas and best wishes for the new year.
    Howard.

  11. Dear Michele and team,

    Merry Christmas to you all.

    Best wishes for the festive season and the new year.

  12. Wow, you look very nice in red. I wouldn’t mind unwrapping you on Christmas morning ????

  13. Wishing everyone in the Team a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

    Hope to get back into the air more frequently in 2021.

    God bless

  14. Have a brilliant Christmas Michelle and I look forward to my daily dose of travel in 2021. x

  15. Happy Christmas and here’s to fulfilling bookings instead of rearranging them soon! Thanks for all the information.

  17. Merry Christmas to you all!
    Looking forward to better times and fresh adventures in 2021.

  19. To all at TLFL thank you for keeping me well informed and entertained during this challenging year. I wish you all festive cheer and a safe and happy New Year. Fingers crossed that we will all be able to travel again in relative safety in 2021 and beyond.

  20. Thanks to the entire team for a great, if challenging, 2020 worth of content and here’s to much more in ’21 along with my annual “fingers crossed but prepared for letdown” approach to the ‘Win Status’ competition on the 27th

  21. Thanks for all your efforts Michelle, and the effort from the rest of the TLFL team as well! I don’t underestimate how much work it must be to keep this site going. I don’t always agree with what you post, but always agree with you getting the TLFL view out there. Merry Christmas Michelle and to all at TLFR towers. Hope you have a lovely 2022!

  22. Merry Christmas to you all. Thank you for all your help and information over the past challenging year. Hopefully 2022 will be better for all of us, fingers crossed!

  24. Thanks for maintaining your exacting standards despite airlines and hotels wishing we’d simply put up and shut up with cost cutting dressed up as pandemic measures. I have booked Four Seasons Las Vegas in 2022 based on your review.

    1. Thanks James. I just stayed there on Monday night and it’s as good as ever! Didn’t want to leave, especially the amazing bed!

  25. Love the fact that somehow my THANKS message from last year is above. I’ll add this years “YOU’RE AMAZING & DON’T CHANGE A THING” message to accompany it.

    Here’s to, hopefully, a slightly easier year of travel next year and all the content it brings.

    1. Thanks Clayton. It’s because I use last years post as a basis since it already has the older videos. Very lazy I know ????????

  27. Merry Christmas and a happy new year to you and the team. Hopefully things will improve with travel 😀

  28. Merry Christmas Michele and the team.

    Thank you for all the amazing articles this year!

    You made travel a lot easier for all of us overt the last few years!

  29. Happy Xmas Michele and the TLfL Team, from sunny Alicante – thanks for all the tips, alerts and reviews.
