Well, it wasn't my money to be fair but the principal remains the same.
I returned this evening from the superfluous trip I mentioned in the previous post and I think the term "adventurous" is probably most apt to describe the journey. In summary, Humberside, Schiphol, Porto, Porto, Schiphol, Humberside; countless hours sat around with little to do other than eat and drink; every leg of the journey ran late; the last leg of the journey had been omitted from some of the departure boards; technical difficulties meant we couldn't land at Humberside for a while (cue the "we'll be stuck up here all night" jokes) and to top it all off, my colleague's luggage disappeared whilst flustered staff were faced with a locked computer system that could neither trace the bag or provide a receipt logging his complaint.
We don't usually experience such "excitement" on our trips, but I assume they lay all the extra activity on in return for paying over ten times the usual fare...

Perhaps you should have stayed at home... or gone to Barbados.
