Do you have any funny or weird flight stories?
During my first international flight (a business trip) I spent several hours scared at Venice airport.
It was a Friday night, and I was in a taxi going to VCE airport to take the flight back to Brazil when I decided to open my email and check my airline ticket. To my surprise, the company where I worked bought the return ticket for the wrong date, only for the next night.
There were a few hours of phone calls and waiting for an answer… stopped at the airport, full of equipment and with no money for one more night in a hotel. Until the company was able to buy a last-minute ticket for my return. A night of learnings for all! :)
