ADVICE
“What do you think I should do?” God, please don’t ask me. What do I know (I’m kidding, I think)? I’m just a girl who decided she needed to see the world and made every mistake humanly possible along the way. But maybe I know a thing or two more than you do right now, maybe I’ve made one or two more mistakes than you have yet and knowing them will help you. If so, here is the best advice I can think to give you (please, I don’t know all that much. Take it with many, many grains of salt. Take it with a whole salt shaker).

Now you’re on hold with the help and customer support line. Since this airline is always at the top of their game, connecting the call with an actual person takes mere minutes, not hours (I beg you to hear my sarcasm), and once on this phone call, you learn that your reservation does not exist because you have been scammed by the unreliable third party app through which you booked your flight to save a whopping… ten bucks!
Spring break... the best of times, and the worst of times.
