Big Country Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 We're flying Delta to ireland in August. I'll have two younguns to keep me busy so the will be my in flight entertainments as my input of taking the flight that left at night and went direct, thus meaning our kids would most likely SLEEP most of the flight went unheeded and we are leaving in the morning from OC to Atlanta, when they ae most awake, lay over in Atlanta for a couple of hours, at my son;s normal nap time, then take off from Atlanta to Ireland when he is again normally awake. But, heaven forbid we look at it that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spain Posted June 11, 2007 Author Share Posted June 11, 2007 Greece is the greatest place on Earth (I am Greek - Born in USA tho) How long will you be there? Staying in Athens a couple days after the cruise. Staying at Athens Hilton. I hope those Greeks arent afraid to wear deodorant like those f'n Italians!

darin3 Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 I've flown Delta quite a bit. I'm lukewarm. Yes, their crooked baggage handlers swiped my digital camera. But they at least gave me a $250 travel voucher. Yes, I had three delays in one day on Delta planes. I brought this to their attention, and again, received a $250 voucher. I have only been on one Delta flight with the seat-back TVs/entertainment. I think it's a "beta test". All-in-all, they're no better nor no worse than any other airline out there.

I hope those Greeks arent afraid to wear deodorant like those f'n Italians! Honestly, if you have a couple of days go hit an island (if you and the misses are going go to Santorini). Athens is the worst part of Greece for tourist. It is good for 1-2 days tops if that and thats just to see the historical sites. You will LOVE an island where you can walk to beach and have tons of things to do as well as see historical sites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do have 1 question: do they have casino's in Barcelona or Athens? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not in Barcelona that I can remember. Can't speak for Athens. I'm sure the cruise ship will have one though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Athens doesn't. You would have to go up north. If you do stay in Athens make sure you hit up the Acropolis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spain Posted June 12, 2007 Author Share Posted June 12, 2007 I live in Nashville which other than "Music City" is also known as "the Athens of the South". We have a full size replica of the Parthenon in a city park downtown. We consider Athens to be our sister city. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of our stops is Monte Carlo so I will be sure to go to The Grand casino there!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
