Howdy! So I've mentioned before that in 2014-2015ish, to save money on our flight to Paris, we transferred in Moscow even though that doubled the length of our journey. Well, we had about an hour to make our connection in the Moscow airport, and several minutes of that time was spent going through security and getting our passports stamped in Moscow. There were no signs in English, French or Spanish. We could not find any Customer Service Personnel who spoke English. We just

Howdy! Back in September of 2014ish my SO and I went to Paris. We flew from JFK (John F.

Our flights were advertised as being nearly half price on @TheFlightDeal(Twitter account) and Danny booked our hotel in the middle of Paris on Orbitz. Sounds great, right? Well, sort o

Howdy! So, same as everybody else, I ceased traveling when Covid 19 hit, canceling plans to fly to New York for baby showers and whatnot during 2020. Now, having gotten both of my Moderna vaccine shots over a month ago, I decided to fly down for my nephew’s first birthday party this past week. All and all, I think the airports are doing their best with a bad situation. That being said, I witnessed some inconsistencies. Waiting to fly out of Austin-Bergstrom airport, I heard m
