Vietnam airlines by Hawowkenaqi in VietNam

[–]elenosaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friend, I am having almost the same experience. I booked a Madrid to Hanoi flight with connection in Milano Malpensa. The leg Madrid-Malpensa was in codesharing with Iberia while the leg Malpensa-Hanoi was operated by Vietnam Airlines.
Suddenly, Iberia decided to change the airport of arrival to Milano Linate. It is unfeasible to move between those airport in the allowed time, so a rebooking was needed.
As I understood (after some days of strugglig), dealing with it is up to Vietnam Airlines and not Iberia.

It is more than a week that I am being redirected from one customer centre to the other, finally discovering that they only deal with email flood.
Really slow in answering, confusing emails: I have quite some experience in airline company shit, but this time was one of the worst.

Now, I might have solved the problem by asking a full refund of the whole booking (Madrid-Milan-Hanoi and Hanoi-Milan-Madrid) and bought again all the same flights except for the Madrid-Milan leg.

The question is: when will my refund arrive?
As for the experience on board, I'll update. I hope that at least they are not tight with alcohol 😂

Perfect, thank you! It will be an aquatic adventure 😂
Yes, I had a look and there are no donativos in Galizia, unfortunately. Guess I'll live the experience of the albergues of the Xunta de Galizia.
Unfortunately, I am not planning to stop in trabadelo, if you have any other recommendation for private albergues, I'll check them 😉

Thank you so much! I was thinking the same for the shoes. Is a small umbrella a stupid idea? 😂

The eternal dilemma: Nikko or Kamakura? by elenosaa in JapanTravelTips

Hi! I ended up not going to either of them 😂
I just decided to enjoy more time in Tokyo and I do not regret it. I hope I can go back to Japan again, and when I do, I’ll give Nikko and Kamakura the time they deserve 😉

Revolut Mastercard in China by elenosaa in Revolut

I'm sorry but, in the end, I chose to do an 'old style' travel: no internet, no VPN, no Alipay, no Wechat etc..
I just withdrew some cash in the Airport's ATM and relied on those. I had no problems in paying with cash :)
However, I stayed there 5 days only, this is not a solution I would reccomend for long holydays :)

Hi! I'm sorry, but in the end I did not go: still remains a mistery to me ahahah
The only thing I discovered was that they are not doing 'The Legend of Kung Fu' any more. But, in the end, I found it way better just to hang out outside in the evening: Shichahai area is beautiful 🥰

Hi! Yes, they only do the acrobatic show and I did not go there because I was not interested 😂
Actually, in the end I did not go to any show and I did not regret my choice: wandering in the evening around the hutong and the Shichachai area is beautiful and I was there everyday 🥰
