It’s been a great few weeks for me – first a conference in Las Vegas and last week I travelled to Honolulu with my children for a short vacation. Hawaiian Airlines introduced direct flights from Brisbane in late November, so I decided to try them out and celebrate my 40th birthday at the same time!
