Dolce Far Niente





Sunset Over Rome Forum
We are healthy and coping well.  Getting a bit bored and trying to figure out how to get home as things become obviously more complicated.  One issue we have had is with a booked direct flight out of Lisbon on April 6 with TAP.  Our original plan (the best laid plans????) was to fly to Lisbon on April 1.  Spend some quality time with our friends John and Kathy.  Then fly to Boston on April 6.  TAP has changed that flight tol Newark with no provided connection to Boston.  We got this April 6 business class flight with credit card points.  Now we are unable to get to Lisbon at all.  TAP will not cancel or change the flight because we booked with credit card points.  We must do it through Chase credit card.  Chase is not answering the phone nor do they have any online dispute connection to use. I'm sure eventually this will be resolved.  Our other plan to book from Rome to the US is a 16 hour flight in economy with Delta.  There is a 4 hour layover at JFK.  It is such a mess.  We had a nice long walk today. Otherwise we remain sweetly bored.
