After much deliberation, I've had to postpone my trip to Peru that's next month. I was able to do the voucher thing and have a credit on my account for my next flight with them (for a stiff fee... sigh).
I have absolutely NO money thanks to the army screwing with me and not paying my my travel pay from the deployment (well not at the moment anyway, I'll get my money the big question is when) and then I learned I'm not going to be getting my VA checks until October, so going to Peru for 3 weeks in September is really unrealistic, especially as I am trying to move right now. I'm freaking pissed and sad but that's the way it goes.
What my alternate plan is, is do something the month of December or in March for spring break. In December I will get to do a longer trip than in March but I don't know if Peru is even desirable in December. Spirit Airlines flies to other places too that I'm considering, including Costa Rica, the Caribbean, Colombia (though I'm not entirely convinced that's safe), Guatemala, Panama, and the Dominican Republic.
I know some of those locations would be PERFECT for spring break but I don't know really. I really really want to go to Peru though. I guess it will depend on money because I got those tix to Peru for dirt cheap and now in December, the price of my credit is worth only a one way ticket. So I guess we will see.
Bahhhhhh!
