Description:

Hey everyone!  I know this is a bit of an unusual post, but if you happen to be adventurous and never shy away from a bit of spontaneity read on!

First a bit about myself... I'm a 22-year-old First Officer with Air Canada Express and joined the VOC to find others with similar interests and personalities to venture into the unknown with.  I'm passionate about the outdoors, human culture and living life the the maximum.

Now about the trip.  Before the end of the year, I have several (almost) free flight passes to use, and thought there would be no better way to make sure they don't go to waste than to use them with you guys!  The plan is very flexible but could include anything from going hiking in Chile to scuba diving in Jamaica or the Dominican Republic, to riding in the back of a Tuk Tuk in New Delhi...  The options are almost endless.

The most important consideration is that my passes are for standby seats, meaning that we would need to be flexible if we don't make it on our first-choice flight.  Because of the limitations of standby flying, I would unfortunately only be able to bring 1-2 people without making the chances of missing a flight too large.

The top picks for the trip are:

  • Bangkok
  • Seoul
  • Hong Kong
  • Punta Cana
  • Montego Bay
  • Santiago
  • Sao Paulo
  • New Delhi

The cost for the flights would likely be between 100CAD - 175CAD round trip.

If this sounds like something you would want to join in on, I'd be happy to have you along!  Please feel free to join the discord server and participate in the pre-trip meeting where we can discuss all of our options!  If you aren't able to join the server, just send me a text at +1 (778) 895-7825 or an email at [email protected] and reference the trip!
