DH has a big birthday and has secretly been bought a trip to a city for 5 days by his parents. They’ve kindly paid for both of us. This is just one of his gifts from them.
I was going to take him away on a similar trip but somewhere relaxing like the beach. Time is very short this summer, and so the only chance to do it would be in the week before the said booked city trip. The flights are all booked and paid.
Would I be really unreasonable/cheeky if I offered to pay for a different flight out somewhere else then travel to the same city that they’ve booked the holiday to.
I feel this might come across as jumping on the bandwagon of their gift.
Another reason is that it seems pointless to fly home 5+ hours to just fly that direction again in 1/2 days. Plus I suppose it might save a bit of money on my behalf. Or I could even offer to pay for what would be wasted flights if I did ask.
I’ve been thinking about this too much, AIBU???
