Since i got 5 days off in a row, therefore i planned a trip to Czech Republic which i would say that is one of the best place you can't miss out. However, July is a peak season to travel around and is a tough season for airlines crew to travel on standby tickets. With no exception, i am one of the examples. I had purchased 2 tickets, one to Vienna so i can take a train later on to go to Prague and the other was to Frankfurt which is the second choice if Vienna flight was full...Indeed, it happened exactly what i had forcasted lol...I arrive at Dubai Airport just hour and half for standby luck and along with me there were 2 serbian crew same as me but they were heading back home but via Vienna as well...which means i had nearly no chance to get on the flight as Vienna flight that day was overbooked and as a result we couldn't get on the flight to Vienna...then now comes the second option which is going through Frankfurt and of course no way i will take a train or any land transportation to Prague, as it might take 9-12 hours traveling...lol this will drive me insane! Hence, 3 of us we came back to the airport for the FRA flight and i did check previously and the load was optimist so we had no problem and all went on FRA flight. The only tricky thing we had to do upon our arrival into Frankfurt, we gotta buy a zed fare ticket to go to our different destination. And luckly they issued the ticket for me to go to Prague with Lufthansa but arriving at Prague around midnight...and i had no idea how to go to the city after 00:00 from Prague airport~
Seems like i was pretty lucky when i arrived in Prague, there was still bus running every hour...so i took the bus and head to Prague downtown around 1 am...i ended up so tiring in a budget hotel which was the only option i could find with my budget! hahaha, don't laugh! not all flight attendants are rich hey! :0( anyway i am very impressed that most of the czech people can speak quite good english maybe because it is a very demaning and attracting to tourism so English has become their common language...just guessing.
The history of Prague spans thousands of years, during which time the city grew from a castle known as Vyšehrad to the multicultural capital of a modern European state, the Czech Republic. Check out the photos below which i visited. What an amazing and historical castle!
