Letter to Millie Geller-Howard about Itinerary for Australia Visit (1973)

Dear Millie: The following is the itinerary I would like for my wife and myself. The westward portion is quite firm; the eastward or return portion is not. In other words, I may want to change the dates of our flights from Melbourne-Auckland and Auckland-New York. I assume we will be able to do that later on, especially since there is no difference in price. Our general trip is: New York-Honolulu-Nadi-Melbourne-Auckland-New York. We would like to leave New York for Honolulu on Sunday, July 8 (perhaps AA#151 direct, and PA#819 from Los Angeles). We would then like to spend Monday and part of Tuesday in Honolulu. (If there are flights from Honolulu-Nadi on early Tuesday, we will take them too). We would then like to fly to Nadi and stay there to Friday morning. I know there are two flights (QF and BA) leaving Nadi on Friday, July 13 for Melbourne, but they are abysmally early (5:20 and 5:30 A.M.) If nothing is available in the 7-9 A.M. range, I guess we will keep that.Now, as to the return trip, I am interested in the following, although (as I mentioned) there may be certain changes in dates.I would like for us to leave Melbourne for Auckland on Wednesday, August 8. If it is easier to get the two flights close to each other on Thursday, August 9, I will take that. If it has to be from Sydney to Auckland, I will take that too.We would then like to leave Auckland for New York on Thursday, August 16 or Monday, August 20. Please get the tickets for Monday, but let me know when we can catch flights on Thursday. (I believe there are direct flights by Pan-Am and others. I am also told that one of us can fly Auckland - Honolulu, via ANZ, arriving in Honolulu about 9:00 A.M., while the other flies to Fiji and then catches a QF to Honolulu, arriving about 9:30 A.M. From Honolulu we can catch flights, close to each other, to New York).I realize this is quite complicated as is. But if you ever have any choices, we prefer the jumbo jets to the others.I would also appreciate your …
