    Public transit along Camino Portugués

    We used local taxi services on various stages of the Portugues if one or two of us needed a ride. I'd ask someone working at a bar or cafe to call for us (and I'd leave a tip, if we weren't ordering anything). Or we would do an internet search for the nearest town taxi service and use WhatsApp...

    Checked luggage question

    Our packs were checked through to O'Hare and arrived safely. Our plane was struck by lightning on the way to Chicago, which apparently isn't a big deal, but was a bit alarming!

    Checked luggage question

    We are flying from Santiago to Madrid tomorrow evening, spending the night at a hotel, and then flying to Chicago the next day. This is all on one ticket. Do we pick up our checked luggage at baggage claim in Madrid and then recheck it the next morning?

    Iberia website question

    I have never seen it before either. I decided to log out and not fill it in after all. Hopefully it won't be a problem at the airport.

    Iberia website question

    I've run into this page while entering my documentation on the Iberia website in preparation for a flight from Chicago to Madrid, then Madrid to La Coruna this Saturday. Would this be the address of the hotel in La Coruna?

    (TAP) Porto Cancelled

    I logged into TAP airlines website today to check on a date for my fall Camino and discovered my flight home from Chicago to Porto had been canceled but I never received notification! (I did go back and check my email files and spam box). While it was an unpleasant and unexpected discovery, the...

    One hour, Madrid airport.

    Wow, thank you! I did put on my "teacher voice" at one point. Effective but has to be used sparingly. ;)

    One hour, Madrid airport.

    I decided that making a simple change to my tickets, by flying from Santiago to Madrid the day before (a 37 Euro flight) would eliminate the stressful layover. Through 3 hours (and lots of hold music), three different customer service representatives at Iberia - the first told me the change was...

    One hour, Madrid airport.

    How would mandatory rebooking work if I do miss the flight to Chicago? Would it only be flights offered by Iberia?

    I don't remember, I booked it months ago with a voucher.

    One hour, Madrid airport.

    I've been to the Reina Sophia (and loved it). I did not get to spend enough time at the Prado the last time I was in Madrid.

    One hour, Madrid airport.

    I think I'll take myself to the Prado if I can!

    One hour, Madrid airport.

    This is all on one ticket through Iberia. Santiago to Madrid, connecting flight to Chicago.

    One hour, Madrid airport.

    I always book the early morning flight from Santiago to Madrid so I've got several hours before a flight home to Chicago. That early flight was cancelled and now I have just an hour to make the connection. Is this feasible?

    Best use of Voucher?

    I chose to get a voucher originally, thinking that surely we would be able to travel this fall. By accepting a voucher I think I negated the option for a refund but I will check out the other thread and links.
