Hi there, JFC-ers,

As usual, it's all go here at Jack's Flight Club HQ — or should I say, we're all go?!

At the beginning of the week, Flight Finder Fran returned home to Brussels after a couple of glorious weeks catching the waves in Brazil with old friends. But before she knew it, she was turned right around and heading back to the airport to wing her way to me in Scotland. 

Joined by Flight Finder Lauren, who jetted over from Barcelona, the pair hopped aboard Global Airlines' maiden voyage to New York yesterday to bring us all the inside scoop. In case you're wondering why this is so exciting, honestly, it's because so many people doubted that it would ever happen.

But after balloons and cupcakes at check-in, and a mouth-watering in-flight meal, our intrepid Flight Finders successfully made it across the pond to land in the Big Apple. Don't worry, their airline review is already in the works, and I'll be sure to share it ASAP.

After a few days scouring the city's must-see sights (all in the name of great content, of course!), they'll fly back to Glasgow… before coming to meet me in a top-secret European location!

Tomorrow marks the start of another exciting race run by our friends at Lupine Travel. This time, racers will be dashing from London to Marrakesh via a series of (as yet undisclosed) checkpoints — and lucky for them, Lauren, Fran and I will be ready to greet them in the midway city. We'll be running a casual social evening, complete with a rather on-brand travel nerd pub quiz, before making our own way to Marrakesh for the awards party.

On that note, any of advice on Marrakesh must-sees would be greatly appreciated! We'll only have a couple of days in the city, so let me know where to go and where to skip to make the most of our time. If you want to stay up-to-date with all our goings-on, keep your eyes on our Instagram.

I hope your upcoming travel plans are as exciting as my own, dear readers!

Happy travels and safe landings,
