So I would like to hear some your thoughts about this:
Basically SO lives about 5024 miles away from me. I live in Europe and she's from the US. And we're together for almost 4 months now and we already started talking about meeting each other for the first time (yeah we met online . We decided that I will fly over to go visit her and her family. We have kind of set a date already, which is November 2012.
Only problem is: I never took a plane somewhere on my own... I flew with some friends to Germany, which was a 1hr flight. It wasn't that big of a deal but I'm pretty sure international flights will be a lot different.
So now I'm kind of scared to fly to the US on my own. Especially because it's not a direct flight and there might be one or two layovers...
So my question was: is there a big difference in flying europe only and flying international?
I used online check-in on my first flight, so that was pretty straight forward. Just print the boarding cards, go through the security check at the airport (which wasn't really a check, just scanning the hand luggage and go through the metal detector) and then try to find the gate and wait there to board the plane...
Can anyone tell me how much of a difference it is to fly to the US? and with the layovers etc? because I'm just scared that I'm going to get lost at the airport and won't have a clue where to go etc lol
Would really appreciate some replies
thanks
