All that really matters is that the carriers involved have interline agreements. If so, they can be ticketed together.
By definition all airlines in the same alliance have interline agreements with each other.
Multiple airlines can be combined on a single ticket. Such connections are protected.
However if combining airlines I would only book such a ticket directly with one of those airlines, not through a third party.
Personally I didn’t feel like my body had really adapted until I reached Logrono but YMMV. I’m 32 and very overweight so you might reach that point faster.
I'm surprised they're wearing out so fast. I wore the same shoe on the camino and it was still going strong when I reached SdC (other than being very very dirty).
Are they getting overly wet? When you get the new pair, might help to stuff some newspaper in them at night so they dry out more.
I used points to get to my camino. I've been churning credit cards for over a decade and have burned through about 3 million airline miles and hotel points.
I redeemed 57k American Airlines miles for a flight from Denver to London via Dallas and 68k United miles for a flight from Frankfurt...
Cortisone didn't do much for me either when I encountered some bed bugs on the CF last month, but I went into a farmacia and said "chinche de cama" and they gave me a cream of some sort (I forget the active ingredient) which worked well enough. Holding an ice cube on it can provide some...
Have you contacted your county clerk?
They might be able to send your ballot to a Correos office to be held. My county sends out overseas ballots on September 23 so there's plenty of time.
Thank you Doug! I will admit I've already started thinking about my next Camino, but I have a dog now so that complicates things.
That was indeed gorgeous. I spend the night in Las Herrerias and rode a horse up to O Cebreiro.
Thank you!
I definitely dealt with some injuries along the way...
I’m guessing you’re an American if you’re using Chase.
Best approach is to get one of the various debit cards on the market that refund third-party ATM fees and don’t charge foreign transaction fees, like Schwab. That way you get the interbank currency rate which is as good as it gets.
Tap-to-pay with a card has relatively low limits but payments with Apple/Google Pay are usually much higher or unlimited. I’ve used Apple Pay for transactions upwards of 500 euros without a problem.
I never found any use for my pocket knife on the CF. I did carry an ultralightweight first aid kit. Only thing I used was the antibiotic ointment which I gave to another pilgrim who got a huge cut on his hand.
