There's no chance of an upgrade on the way to Los Angeles (too many Elites running that route from Newark), but our game plan is to sleep on that flight and then try to stay awake on the eight-hour Air Tahiti Nui flight. That way, we'll hopefully be able to sleep through the night once we arrive in Tahiti. Fingers crossed that our plan works!
Stay tuned to this blog for daily posts from the South Pacific. We promise to share all the details of the trip with you, along with tons of photos (Internet willing)! And, if there's anything you want to know about Paul Gauguin Cruises, the InterContinental Tahiti, Le Meridien Bora Bora, or the islands in general, please let us know!
