Read my blog if you want the details of it all and how I managed to get out of it at nikiinfrance.blogspot.comlavoyageuseseulehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05546369074070833595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36278947.post-12561370384529924772008-09-18T13:47:00.000-07:002008-09-18T13:47:00.000-07:00Damn, i'm sorry to say this but you just sound stupid plain and simple. Any person with a bit of common sense could have avoided those incidences. Pulling an emergency stop just because you were too slow to get your ass of the train is just straight inconsiderable. And you wonder why they got mad...

On the way from the airport to the city i paid close attention to how i was going to get back to the airport a couple of days later.<BR/>All this was very useful as i found the right bus and got to the bus stop on time, only to realise half way to the airport that i was headed to the wrong one!<BR/>Instead of flying out of Pratt airport i had to backtrack my way to Girona, then instead of flying direct to Hamburg i had to buy a new ticket for a flight to Frankfurt and catch the ICE up to Hamburg. All up about 250 euro!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36278947.post-62139170836921057152008-09-06T21:29:00.000-07:002008-09-06T21:29:00.000-07:00thanks for posting its nice going through the linesbeach resorthttp://letsgo.co.innoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36278947.post-83825184557266733852008-09-05T00:38:00.000-07:002008-09-05T00:38:00.000-07:00Travel is my life! But life isn't always a bowl of cherries. I also have the same experience...Virgin lost my favorite Samsonite suitcase last summer:( Thank God...I only packed some clothes and cook ware in it. <BR/><BR/>My friend was not as luck as I was~~This July, he traveled from Manchester to London by coach, with one wheeled luggage and one huge backpack. When the coach reached its destination, he found all of his luggage disapear in the coach luggage compartment. The truth is someone unloaded his luggage when the coach stopped en route to drop off passengers! Apparently, the coach company does't have a luggage tagging system and the couch crew don't remember who is who...Sooooo it seems that we need to get off the coach and stare at the luggage compartment when it stops on the way~~~A lot of travel tips to share, but have to leave:( Here are some articles talking about travel tips: <A>http://www.luggageguides.com/categories/travel-luggage-tips/</A> Hope you enjoy them~~Susannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36278947.post-64795467736148230162008-09-04T17:06:00.000-07:002008-09-04T17:06:00.000-07:00Other than what you've mentioned here, you're also one of the many who manage to miss out on the all-important ñ!

I lost my luggage when flying back to the UK from Cape Town. <BR/><BR/>I landed Saturday morning and on Sunday midnight I was reunited with my case... as it arrived all by it self in a taxi, which leads me to the assumption that my luggage hired a taxi all by itself as BA on the Monday told me that they were still looking for it!Cape Town Travellerhttp://www.capetownactivities.co.uk/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36278947.post-45414235329926540872008-09-02T05:43:00.000-07:002008-09-02T05:43:00.000-07:00Funny experiences, it happens to me too, I am a travel dummy. I had an experience last year that I do not want to happen again, I was humiliated that time. I think I got to stick with your tried-and-tested survival tips to avoid unnecessary incidence on my trips.
