Plane Tickets Purchased
StudentUniverse.com finally came back alive this morning, after being offline since early Wednesday morning. I would recommend StudentUniverse if you’re a student and need plane tickets. They had the cheapest I could find. Since no flights were available (at least this morning) for Tuesday, January 6 from Washington to Madrid, I went with a flight taking off on Monday. All flights are on Iberia, the national airline of Spain.
My itinerary:
- Washington DC to Chicago, leaving at 3pm
- Chicago to Madrid, overnight
- Madrid to Granada around noon, Central European Time
Don’t ask me why the flight goes from Washington to Chicago, then to Madrid. Why doesn’t the flight go from Chicago to Washington to Madrid?
Since I’ll be arriving a day earlier than expected, I reserved a room at Hotel Carlos V in central Granada for Tuesday night.
The only thing I need now is my passport with my student visa. I dreamt last night that I was holding it in my hands. That dream needs to come true!
Visado de Estudiante, Por Favor
Within the next 5 weeks, if all goes as planned, I should have my passport returned with a student visa included.
So, now for some honest, lengthy backstory. Warning: Contains a good amount of venting…
