Before It Was Over, Plane Delays Would Cause My Girl Elena And I To Miss A Cruise Liner And Be Stuck In A Foreign City Thousands Of Miles From Home Without Luggage And A Place To Remain.
The travel fiasco commenced with the sound of Yuletide music in the middle of the summer vacation season at Will Rogers World Airport.
Before it was over, plane delays would cause my child Elena and I to miss a ship and be stranded in a foreign city thousands of miles from home without bags and a place to stay.
Just before eight a.m. On that Fri. in June, we had appeared at the Oklahoma Town airport with lots of time before our 10:10 a.m. Flight to Atlanta. We were scheduled to arrive shortly after midday in Atlanta with a long layover before boarding a global flight that would take us, with a six-hour time difference, by 9:45 a.m. The following day to Venice.
We puzzled out loud what we'd do with all of the extra time before we wished to catch a Royal Caribbean cruise for an exotic journey on the Adriatic Sea and to cities like Koper, Slovenia ; Ravenna, Italy ; and Dubrovnik, Croatia. We were originally supposed to go to Egypt to celebrate Elena's graduation from Washington University in St. Louis, nonetheless it had been canceled because of the political disturbance there. We had thought about other trips, but logistics had prevented those. Then Royal Caribbean offered a special trip on its second week of a new itinerary in the Adriatic. It was a chance to take Elena on the guaranteed trip.
We researched the trip and its five towns. We were told about the region's history by relations who had been there. We were thrilled about visiting and exploring historical destinations for the 1st time.
Marooned in Oklahoma City
With only half an hour left before our flight, we anticipated the intercom statement to board the aeroplane. Instead we heard that all security checkpoints had been closed, and those passengers who had been cleared must evacuate to the west side of the airfield.
Being a journalist, I naturally started asking questions.
I chatted with a few of the 2,500 passengers who were marooned that day, all with different stories of travel plans that would be delayed. There were stories of a girl bowler going to a state championship, a dad taking his sons to Key West, Fla, to go scuba swimming, a lady flying into Oklahoma Town for an audition that she would miss, and a Nigerian businessperson in this country for a display. Most voiced concern about my travel plans and wished us the best on getting to Italy on time . No problem, I declared ; we had plenty of time to reach Atlanta for the 6:30 p.m. Overnite flight to Venice.
I was still confident even after the bomb frighten finished in early afternoon when police found the suspicious package contained a bullhorn playing Yuletide music, a mobile phone, batteries and wires. But as the hours passed, the anticipation faded. We ultimately left more than six hours later on the same plane to Atlanta that was supposed to leave at 10:10 a.m.
Missing Flight After Flight and Our Ship
Our Atlanta flight arrived just as our original Venice flight was taking off, so we rushed to the world terminal to see if an 8:30 p.m. Flight to Venice was available. A cranky clerk battered furiously on her keyboard and told us the 8:30 flight was not available. However , she found an overnite flight that attached to Venice thru Paris, which gave us masses of time to get to the ship before it launched. The clerk continued to pound at her keyboard for another 30 minutes, griping because she thought we had not informed her about our two checked bags. We warranted her we had, and she commenced pecking wildly on the keyboard again before telling us our bags would arrive in Venice in good time.
We ultimately received our boarding passes and made it to the gate just before the doors closed for the Paris flight. As the airplane departed, I was elated that everything was going to work out.
Then the airplane was delayed almost 30 mins before landing in Paris. We rushed to get to the Venice connection, only to learn at the safety checkpoint that we must return to the ticket counter as we hadn't received a boarding pass in Atlanta. (Later on we were told that clerks cannot give boarding passes on flights lasting more than 6 hours.) After running to the ticket counter, we were told the gates to the Venice flight were closed.
We considered our options : Book the next flight to Venice and miss the ship's exit by about thirty mins or find a flight to the ship's first stop in Koper. The only problem is that Koper can't be reached by plane or train, only by non-public auto. So we took the first option.
A Place To Remain, But No Bags
Country House belongs to Rosa Milevoj and Loris Bernaroinelli. Rosa, from Croatia, speaks eight languages and was formerly a ship employee. Her partner, Loris, is proud that he is mistaken for actor Robert DeNiro but speaks small English. He nevertheless , loves the sounds of Sinatra, Michael Jackson, Woman Gaga and other American singers and will dance or sing loudly to the music.
After more than 36 hours in airfields, we devoured the normal Italian dinner that evening of pasta, cold meats and cheeses, bread and salad, with the red wine that Loris and the Country House graciously served. The dinner guests eat just outside of the villa where the owners ' tiny dogs roam the estate and stare at the diners, wanting a handout or for food to fall from the table. The estate smelled of lilac flowers as the birds chirped softly in the background until Loris decided to start singing again. Almost all of the other dinner guests were Italian, with one couple being from Britain.
Also,we thought about trip in some spiritual place where we are able to find peace and gorgeous nature like as Medjugorje in Bosnia, where we can find anytime some good Medjugorje accommodations.
We returned to the Venice airfield the subsequent morning to retrieve our bag. I found Elena's bag in lost baggage though not mine. A clerk then let me know that my bag likely wouldn't arrive during the whole trip because of a bag system snafu in Paris, even if it had left Atlanta.
As we began to leave, I noticed a lady with long kinky hair and wearing a white sun dress blubbering near the lost baggage window. The bag snafu said another victim.
Within just a few minutes, we returned to the same Air France clerk, who prepared us again at the Country House for one more night. Rosa volunteered to call the airport to complain about my bag, and it was entertaining to listen to Rosa's Croatian voice talking Spanish to a clerk in Italy. Rosa then found an airfield luggage clerk who just seemed to be swimming in his Speedo at the bed-and-breakfast's large pool, found near one of Venice's many canals. He shortly returned with the final verdict : My bag was lost, and we needed to go to Venice to buy clothes,writes tagza.com.
