Got an email from the tour operator saying AA had increased the price of our tickets by $50 each, would we accept this or cancel our reservations. What?? Que, sounds like the operator didn’t ticket your flight, merely held a reservation. As such, the airline can adjust fares, or add surcharges (for fuel, etc.), to bulk tickets booked by tour operators in my experience. So, the tour operator is passing along the expense to you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My ticket is business class and the company simply put me in the economic without advice and without any refund. Three hours in the phone to get back the class I paid for..... We had a similar problem with our return flights from FCO - SIN on SQ. I had booked with miles last year and chose the day after disembarking our cruise, the 15th, to ensure we could make our flight. In early February we were notified they had changed us too the flight the day we disembarked the ship on the 14th. It took over a month, multiple phone calls and waiting for supervisors to call me back before it got resolved by me pointing out that there was redemption seats available on the 16th. Even then there was a few back and forth calls. The silver lining is we will get to stay two nights in Tivoli post cruise which gives me a chance to visit Villa D'Este at a time outside of when day tours are likely to be visiting. Plus all the other interesting places around Tivoli. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if Que decides to pay the $100, should they ask the operate to ticket NOW to avoid further price increases? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Lois, thanks. Answering here so as to not drag Unibok's thread OT. We're doing a land trip to Slovenia and Croatia. This is a reschedule from covid days. We were supposed to do a private tour of China in June 2020 for our 25th but you know how well that worked out! Since China shows no sign of opening up to tourists, we changed the dates and location to this current trip. Flying in and out of Paris so we'll have a day or two there on either end. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will Work for Tiramisu Posted March 25, 2022 #13138 Share Posted March 25, 2022 Lois, In 2018 my wife & I, with an old multi-lingual friend from south of France, rented a car in Prague and wended our way to Milan, via Austria & Hungary, and including going through Slovenia & Croatia. We spent two nights in Ljubljana, (which we loved), and dawdled on our way to Trieste. Being beekeepers, we had to stop in Radovljica (Near Bled) to see the Cebelarski Muzej - a museum devoted to the history of local beekeeping, located in a lovely little town which we had visited on a day outing on a previous SS cruise. And of course, we stopped at Postojna Cave, one of the largest cave complexes in the world, or so they say. You get on a little train (Open topped, WATCH YOUR HEAD!!!), and travel back into the limestone/karst mountain, into amazing caves with spectacular formations. We would go back to Croatia & Slovenia in a minute. I'd love to check out the Croatian coast, south of Trieste. Spectacular country, wonderful food and wine, friendly people, and I think your travel budget stretches well there, also. Enjoy your trip! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jpalbny Posted March 26, 2022 #13145 Share Posted March 26, 2022 In Atlanta. Got in a little early from Albany, but the lounges in E and F both closed at 10:00! Lame. So we are hanging out at the gate, hoping we board soon. Probably not soon enough... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
