Anyone do a alt weekend to Hawaii? I am in ATL on a project. Wondering if going all the way just for 3 days is worth it. If yes, where would you go?

Caribbean islands make much more sense for alt travel from ATL

It’s a long flight from ATL. Any interest in Puerto Rico or other places that are closer? You would get to see a lot more and not have to deal with the time change. Even Costa Rica would be closer!

Been to Puerto Rico and done several Caribbean islands...but never to Hawaii! Maybe take a couple of days off? Friday to Tuesday.

I agree with going to the Caribbean (I prefer PR, but then again I'm from there) or Central America just for the length of time it take to fly there. To put it into context, I flew to Maui from San Diego and that trip was 5 hours. If you're flying from ATL, that trip will probably be 9-10 hours each way vs flying to PR, which would be a quick 3-4 each way. If you're going to Hawaii, give yourself 3 days (not counting travel) to be able to enjoy it. Otherwise, you're going to be rushing it.

I recently joined TW some months back and I dont know why I think have made a wrong choice for myself. I am feeling like I am lost. I am not able to fit in in this high expectations environment. I am used to working in a place where we always worked by taking help from others and here it is sort of assumed that we would be knowing everything right from day 1. Also there is no pairing in my project. Any suggestions on what should be done would be welcome.

Question on UK visa-
My partner will be traveling often to London, once a month for an year starting September. He is getting his visa through work (10 years, multiple entry, 6 months max stay, cost some $1000).

I have applied for standard tourist visa in the past and they are usually short term. It could be max 6 months, but they see your itinerary and allocate you few months around the itinerary

Is there a way to get 6 months multiple entry visa, if I were to join him once in a while.
