I have spent 27 years working in the travel industry with a large proportion of that spent working in Air Traffic Control. My true passion has always been travelling in luxury for the lowest possible price. Following a successful kidney transplant in 2016, I decided to turn my hobby into a full-time job and launched my blog Turning Left for Less about luxury travel for less. The blog has been featured on Radio 4, Daily Mail, CNBC and i newspaper. I am based in the UK but normally spend a lot of my time flying round the world. My areas of expertise are airline and hotel loyalty, all things British Airways and oneworld, as well as how to stay in the finest hotels for less. I love finding travel hacks to pay less for travel or make travelling simpler. I also have a serious suitcase and travel accessory addiction!
