Tickets are Booked!

First thing this morning, I booked our tickets. I was literally working with four agents when one finally told me that Lufthansa was going to cancel both of my reservations if I didn't choose one soon.
So I ditched two of them and came clean with the other two. I asked them both to give me their best deal-- and come morning my choice was clear.

We have humanitarian fares on Lufthansa that have one free flight change if necessary. Less than $1600 a piece. Much better than the $1900 I was quoted for other flights that were not even humanitarian fares. The only thing is that we have two stops instead of one-- but oh well I saved us $1200.

And I think an extra stop is worth $1200. Don't you?

We leave bright and early on June 14th!

Love saving money - that's why we have such a long layover in Frankfurt :) William & Zack are super excited that we'll be in Germany during world cup (since Germany embraces it so much more than the US). I'm guessing William willl walk away with some cool "futbol" souvenirs!
