Inside of a Ryanair plane.
Not that I had that many flight cancellations experience in my whole life. But this was one of the worst. And it was our first time taking a flight out of Croatia in a Croatian airport.
Let's talk about the airport. It is located in Pula (Istrian Peninsular), Croatia. It is located at 10 minutes bus ride from Pula town. See this link for how to get in and out of this airport. In the tiny little airport or should I say airplane depot, there's only a caffee. Few small counters - car rental, ryanair. Very miserable facilities.
Well.. here's the rest of our story. Our flight was cancelled. We did call earlier in the morning to check before we embarked on our hour drive to Pula from Rijeka. Only to find out when we arrived at the temporary Ryanair counter at the airport that our flight was cancelled. And the next flight would be three days later. We were furious as we had a connecting flight to catch at Heathrow the next day. We requested for a switch to a flight from Trieste to London but they could not do that. So we had no choice but to return home to book our flights online as there was no internet access there. And the two Ryanair staff could not give us any answers.
The whole experience caused us a lot of money and time delay. And we swore never to take any flights from Pula ever again. That much for unlucky travel experience!
