I have just been reminded of why I have come to dislike air travel so much. Against my better judgement, Mrs T persuaded me to take us on holiday in Italy. Booked Volotea Nantes/Brindisi at fair price.
Come the day on line info announced 20 min delay. Bag drop not functioning properly so compelled to join Check in Q. For " all destinations" About an hour to drop a bag.
Security took maybe 5 minutes.
Departure lounge at least 3 times too small for crowd.
We paid priority boarding and discovered this gave us priority in the Q at the top of the steps where we waited at least another half hour standing up for a further delayed plane to arrive.
Flight was OK. Nice standard circuit and landing. Seats OK for a two and half hour flight but not impressed with the thin strips of plastic covered aluminium they call arm rests.
Brindisi airport very nice. Acceptable wait for the bag.
Hired car through Rentalcars. Com. Agency was route march off airport with no shuttle. Dark at night. Voucher clearly states in terminal pick.up.desk.
I cannot wait for the journey home to see what that brings.
