Voice of Travelers to Ithaca
Couple vacation to Ithaca
We are a couple from Wellington, New Zealand. We had planned to have our vacation in Ithaca and enjoy the outdoor activities in fall. We flew from Wellington to Athens using Virgin Australia and connecting to Ithaca using Ryanair and they still offered a relatively cheaper ticket compared to other airlines. We booked our ticket six weeks before our flight, a friend had suggested that ticket is cheap six weeks before the travel date. Etihad offered 10% off their ticket but Virgin Australia still had cheaper ticket. An amazing travel experience with exceptionally friendly flight attendants who upgraded our flight ticket to first class after noticing that we were couples from the names on the ticket.
Finger Lakes Grassroots Festival in Ithaca
I am Tona from Kenya, I am fan of events and festivals and I travel around the world to different festival. Last December, I attended the 27th Finger Lakes Grassroots Festival in Ithaca. This was the first time to travel to Greece and I was excited by the prospect of experiencing and interacting with a new culture in Ithaca. I had planned for this trip from early as this year and since I needed both ticket and visa to attend the event. To receive a visa to Ithaca, one needs a valid passport, travel ticket and accommodation ticket. I bought both the air ticket and accommodation ticket to Ithaca online at a 8% off. KLM Airlines with a collaboration with Thomas Cook Airlines, offered 10% off any ticket bought to attend the festivals in Ithaca. This was the first time to travel using KLM and the experience was marvelous. With inflight entertainment and friendly attendants, I am confident that all who attended the festival in Ithaca found the travel experience to Ithaca satisfying.
