Our morning started at 2.30am following a luxurious stay in our windowless easyJet hotel room. We awoke to the good news that our Australian visas had been granted (talk about cutting it fine) and were feeling very positive about the adventure ahead of us! Our luck soon ended when the airline refused to let us check in as we didn't have a flight booked out of Brazil. Apparently a flight out of Peru isn't evidence enough that you are going to leave Brazil! By the time the supervisor came on duty and was able to help us the plane was overbooked. Our luck changed again when they offered us €600 each in compensation, a £20 food voucher (with which we treated ourselves to a Wetherspoons breakfast) and rebooked us on to a direct flight to
Rio with British Airways at 12:30.
After all that, we have finally made it to the departure lounge and are on our way...もっと詳しく
