Brb, off to Venice

nekosasu | November 2, 2008 | 10:19 pm

Fly with ARIAir!

So yeah, I’m leaving to Venice… for exactly one day. Just handing in my pre-enrolment documents at Ca’ Foscari University. Thankfully, it’s a pretty cheap trip – 40 Euros for return plane tickets, ARI RyanAir is great stuff. Even that night at the hotel costs more, heh.

Departing on Monday at noon, arriving there at 6 PM (most likely dawn, already), the next day, going to the Uni, handing in documents and what-not, then I dunno, wasting some time around I guess, then taking the plane back home at 10 PM.

For better or for worse, I’ll miss the beginning of Election Night. Ya know, US politics, srs bsns – hope to see either of the parties crying when I arrive home.

k, filling my ipod with music and R4 with games and camera batteries with juice, see ya~

    I think you get better service from an Aria-style gondola than you do on a RyanAir flight. But yeah, the price is good.

    @lolikit: Thanks, I hope I won’t come home disappointed!

    @IKnight: Well, since it’s a ~1:20 hour flight, I don’t really care about service. Up until recently I had been taking either TAP Air Portugal/Luxair/Lufthansa to fly to Portugal (I’ve never been outside of Europe yet ._.), and the only thing that’s different is the in-flight snack… which I usually don’t like at all. And those high prices (150e+) really don’t do justice to that small increase in “service”. So yeah, RyanAir is really awesome in that aspect.

    That said, I really would never mind getting service on an ARIA-style gondola. Really. :D

    Wow, the flights are rather tight! It’s an hour to Treviso to Venice isn’t it?

    @Ryan: Yep. Tickets to Japan from here is around 1200 Euros at least… guuuuh.

    @X10A: yeah, Ticket says 1:35 but in effect it’s usually 1:25~ish.

    *yawns and stretches* bbl for real now :3

    Woah, studying in Venice, that’s such a brilliant idea. It makes me want to come visit you! XD Be sure to take lots of pictures, even though it’s just one day.

    Time to waste?! Not a single moment in Venice CAN be wasted! If you really have nothing to do go visit the places you had missed last time!

    PICS OR IT DIDN’T HAPPEN! K?!

    Back already!

    @sasa: Yay, I’ll guide you around then! …not in a gondola, though. XD

    @TBN: I had a lot of fun, and shitloads of photos again. Will be hard to sort them out ;)

    @Ruki: Well, I had some places in mind, but it had been raining all afternoon. And getting stuff done for uni was my main preoccupation…

    And so, I’m now enrolled! But I’ll tell you guys all about it soon… :P
