replying to @SonjaSwissLife @SonjaSwissLife @digitalGeek_au A1 Stay calm. We got on the wrong train in Cologne. A train pulled into the station on the platford at the time our train was due ... but actually the train was running late. It was only 30 mins later when our tickets were checked that we realised the problem...#TTOT
replying to @SonjaSwissLife
@SonjaSwissLife It was quite an experience. since then I tripple check every date when I book something & still I get it wrong sometimes.
And on that missed flight we drove to Croatia instead, which was not a good trip, as Bali was still in our mind. #ttot

@lingointransit Oh for sure!
And one day I'm sure I'll make it there. And I guess I'll ask my wife to check the flight info when we book. ;-) #ttot

replying to @TravelDudes @TravelDudes he didn't, lol. But from then on I always kept an eye on him and made sure he was back with time to spare, lol #ttot
replying to @TravelDudes @TravelDudes Well, all you can say is that you went 'somhwhere' but not Bali sadly. I've had reservations booked out 8 months in advance and when I get closer, I see that my flights had been changed many times & was never notified. Thanks for the memories UAL #ttot
replying to @TravelDudes @TravelDudes I'm sure you will too! If I'm travelling with someone now- they need to double check all times and dates. I highlight all dates and times of paper copies now #ttot
A4: In Patagonia, I was using an ATM and forgot to take my card out, which the machine promptly ate. It was a w/e & we were due to fly out the next day so couldn't do anything. Fortunately, my friend lent me money. until an ATM ate his card a few weeks later, lol #ttot
replying to @lingointransit @lingointransit Me too. Not that I'm an 'obsessed controller' but when it comes to travel, I am! Terrible things make one immediately an 'expert' #TTOT
replying to @SonjaSwissLife
@SonjaSwissLife @pixabay Sounds familiar.
I also felt asleep on trains twice, waking up in the middle of the night and the light was turned off in the train already.
I got off and luckily saw the Cologne cathedral in the far distance, so that it was more or less where I wanted to get to.

replying to @lingointransit @lingointransit haha same, I put my short list of blunders down to the fact I'm a good planner, lol #ttot
replying to @wheresshellyii
@wheresshellyii When I started traveling the world I always made sure that I have 2-3 different paying options like cash, credit card & traveler checks. Nowadays I just take my wallet & phone.

replying to @lingointransit @lingointransit That's so easy to do. Especially if they're all in the same departure area and the ground staff is not paying attention to who boards. I've noticed that the pilots or flight crew make a point to declare the flt destination. ...& with all that automation available! #TTOT

replying to @lingointransit @lingointransit and usually the travel blunders turn into good stories afterwards. #ttot
replying to @TravelDudes @TravelDudes @CharlesMcCool A4 It may not be the biggest blunder was it was one of the most annoying...I booked an AirBnB and when we got there nothing worked...broken washing machine, no wifi, TV broken...We contacted AirBnB and eventually got a refund after spending 8 hours chasing the owner...#TTOT
