My flight to Greece leaves in a few hours.  The strike seems to not have impacted the actual flights.

The catering staff is on strike so I may not get any food on the flight.  I’ll bring a little something just in case.  The first part of the trip is Air Canada/Lufthansa so I’m hoping that means it will be fine.

I fly into Frankfurt, Germany and take a connection to Athens, Greece.  The connecting flight is Lufthansa.  I’m concerned about my luggage since it’s the ground crew that is on strike. I have had my luggage late or lost and that’s at the best of times.  Hoping it makes it on 2 flights is a little stressful.

I’ve decided to pack everything for the 11 days into 1 small pack sack and a carry on so I don’t have to worry about a checked bag.  It’s hot in Greece so everything is light and short.  I’m wearing my only cool weather clothes on the plane – long pants, shirt, light fleece.  I’ll just have to shop if I am missing something.

Carla is already in Germany.  She is worried about the strike as well.  So far all the flights seem to be going.  Here’s hoping by the time I land in Germany tomorrow that my connecting flight is still OK.

I just want to be there already!
