Check with air canada to see your equivalent Star Alliance status. Copa should recognise your status against theirs eg silver, gold or plat etc since they are both star alliance

For this “promotion”, It’s more about the availability of award seats, not the lower points required I guess.

Since Junior’s photo is out there, I have to say he is such a hot dancer and an amazing performer in bed. He does not have the attitude and behaves like the boy next door.

I made friend with a local older gentleman in rio who told me the boys can behave “a bit different” when outside of the “thermas”, and he advised that I should never take the boys out of Sauna, also citing safety reasons. in my experience it is perhaps true. They can be less enthusiastic, plus the “standard” charge for going to your hotel is R300, as of Sept 17. I met a few American guys who said they were charged R300 also when taking the boys out. I did not feel unsafe tho.

Thank you so much for the suggestion, firecat69! I have been thinking of Santo Dominingo, Dominican Republic primarily because of the warmer weather in January. I am going to do my homework on Medellin ad Bogota now. Trip report here no matter where I end up visiting:-) Happy New Year!

Could not decide on a destination! Although Rio sounds the best choice, I'd prefer a shorter trip from Miami to somewhere with easy access to hunky rent boys:-) Have booked for a Cuban vacation in March, so I am thinking of Santo Domingo and Bogota for mid January? Thought DR is safer place than Colombia? i just wish to have a relaxed, slow paced vacation without much other activity planned. Please help
