"Fun is in the air"...part 1.

Over the past few weeks, I have spent a significant amount of time on hold with my new favorite airline, Israir. As part of their theme music, they claim "Israir...fun is in the air!" I will certainly be the judge of this come next Wednesday night. The fun for has began well before I got to "the air" however. Today a voicemail on my phone told me, my flight had been cancelled, so I should call up and speak to them. After many calls and hearing my options, I will now be going the day before, which isn't so bad, I also had to change my flight to New York which cost me $-6. Yes, $-6. They charged me to change my ticket $50, but the different in fare was $-56 so they refunded me. Great. I overpaid on that flight to begin with, so now i can feel just a wee bit better...not.

I hope that fun will still be in the air when I fly to Israel, my new flight is "Operated by North American Airlines" whatever that may be. Apparently, there is no difference, and I hope the fun is not decreased in any way. Oh, I also got a $200 travel voucher to Israir, I am taking bids on it, if anyone wants to buy it from me, it's good for 6 months, so I probably won't be lucky enough to go back to Israel that soon. Well, keep watching this blog for a full report on my travels to Israel, especially on the level of fun-ness so advertised by Israir! And of course, you can see how I'm doing in Israel once I go, I will probably post every night or so.
