Premium Airline, Scheduled , Low Cost, Budget or Chartered?

Yes..I’m talking about the airlines and that hole in the pocket. You see, I made a terrible mistake last month when I booked my flights online, thinking to save about 90Euros, I could drop from Paris Charles De Gaulle Airport and then take a Metro to Beauvais Paris Airport to connect to Ryanair and also that if I stayed at a cheap hotel there, I will save loads.

Boy was I mistaken. BVA is 130Kilometers away from Paris, and from CDG, its about 1hour to Gare-Du-Nord in Paris, which already cost me 12 Euros. And I had to to travel on the Metro on Line 2 Direction towards Arc Du Triumphe (Charles-du) and transfer to Porte Maillot, when I discovered the last bus leaves at 8:30pm local time!

So, it’s raining …etc, and I got another accommodation which costed me triple! But reachng BVA, I found it’s the same as going back from CDG to England via the A16, only to Exit at Beauvais. Plus that the place is country roads. Remember I said something about London’s Kent Manston International Airport? It’s the same senario! Terminal wise, it’s just as bad as London Lydd Airport, which is just off the A20 near Ashford.

So, in soothe, deciding on the cheapo does not pay that much. If I paid 30Euro more, I could get on Aer Lingus, and without all those hassle! … What a thing for me to remember. I’ll talk about this later. At least , as a consolation, I have the Orange WiFi, which is 15Euro for 10hrs (to be used for 30days..which is a good deal!)

And so..I’ve to see myself how Ryan Air flight itself is. Hopefully, as good as it says.

Nobody sponsored me. And did I forget to mention that the coffee shop short changed me 5euros?
