Happy Christmas to you and your family from all of the team here at HfP.

The core HfP is all in the UK this Christmas. I am in London, Rhys is off in the West Country with a huge number of extended family members and Sinead is at home hoping that her second child will hang on until the planned due date early next month!

Happy Christmas from the Head for Points team

(We have recruited an excellent ex-Amex and ex-Virgin Atlantic marketing person, Katie Ridgers, to cover for Sinead in 2024 and you will be seeing her name on various pieces of content in the new year.)

Thank you for your support over the past year. We managed grow page views again – up 12% on 2022 – which means we’ve grown every year, even during the pandemic, since the site launched in 2012.

Please feel free to share your Christmas travel plans – hopefully more ambitious than ours! – in the comments.

We will slowly get back into things tomorrow as Rhys and I look back over our year in travel.

With our best wishes,

Rob, Rhys, Sinead and Katie

    Merry Christmas from a dreary Chepstow. Massive thanks to all at HfP which continues to inspire my travels and the various loyalty cards and SUBs which I have used to great effect over the last 3 years.

    First trip for me will be 22nd January 2024 GUF1 to SFO and then onto Honolulu to complete visiting all 50 States. Have to think of something else after this 😂. Alan

    Merry Christmas! In Tallinn currently exploring Christmas market. Not looking forward to landing in Stansted tomorrow with no trains to get out of there either.

    Merry Christmas all from a very busy Holiday Inn Edinburgh Zoo. London later this week then Amsterdam the week after and that’s the 1500 tier points done!

    Merry Christmas to one and all. Our first trip of 2024 will be New Year’s Day. Off to check out the new Barcelo Playa Blanca in Lanzarote.

    But first to celebrate our daughter’s birthday today!

      Ooh. I have that one in Feb. Pretty please leave a review Mark ! Just landed back yesterday from Costa Rica. Two tips- stay at Amor Arenal if up at Arenal and La Palma in Corcovado. BA flights were on the oldest version of CW and their good from CR was very poor. If not on a 241 go Iberia.
