Weird Travel Day From Athens to London to Dallas | Travel Vlog

[@Constantius-XI]

Happy New Year! I really enjoy all your videos Tiffany. I hope you have a wonderful time back home with family and friends. Greetings from Patras, Greece.

[@agirlandherpassport]

You too! Thank you!

[@TexasDoug393]

Welcome home, Tiffany! Waving from south of Fort Worth. Still hanging onto the fantasy retirement in Greece, but not immediately.

[@darthhideous3623]

Travelling for 24 hours flat, I know that feeling! Flying from Heathrow to the southern US, I'd imagine you would have passed pretty close to Liverpool, my home town. Not that you would have seen it, as the UK is buried in cloud most of the year! Safe travels lady, and a happy & healthy New Year.

[@agirlandherpassport]

It’s never fun no matter how much sleep you have.

[@LAbee333]

Yes we went through there twice in october- Going back and forth to athens- miserable experience I hope to never See heathrow or London again

[@darthhideous3623]

Oh dear. This country certainly doesn't cover itself in glory these days! There are much better places in the UK than London though...Been there myself and was glad to leave 😄

[@jpaleas]

Hope you have enjoyed or still enjoying family time and had an amazing Holiday season! Happy and Healthy New Year!

[@agirlandherpassport]

Thank you. I am! Happy New Year!

[@ginaperks1720]

Happy New Year! It’s amazing how motivating it is to hear lost luggage stories …. to pack carryon only! Post Covid that’s what I’ve been doing…. Even 2 month trips to Europe ( from Australia). But I only travel in spring/autumn so no need for heavy clothes. Back again this year to experience Easter in Crete.

[@agirlandherpassport]

I hate carrying my luggage so that is why I have the AirTags and travel with back up stuff. I get it though. I have only had it happen twice.

[@AnneMelb2010]

Happy New Year! Thanks for showing us your experience flying out. I always get a little bit anxious when dealing with flying so it helps to see how others cope. lol I'm in Australia and it takes 22 hours to get to London with a stopover. Even getting to L.A X is 14 hours so long time on planes. Anyway, hope your new year will be fabulous.

[@agirlandherpassport]

You too! Flying is anxiety inducing especially long haul!

When my wife returned to the U. S. from the U. K. through Heathrow, she said the security people were nasty and she had to transfer liquids from her clear plastic bags to ones provided by security. It was a real pain.

[@agirlandherpassport]

Yes, they are very strict. I have mine in a clear plastic bag that I bought years ago that they seem to be okay with. But I am always prepared to be delayed there.

[@nickgiles7568]

Hello and Happy New Year. I have been watching the port webcams for Piraeus, Paros and Naxos and all seems calm with good weather. Do you put your airtags inside your bag ? Last year I put my Samsung equivalent attached outside the bag attached to the handle as I was not sure if they would work okay inside. Unfortunately the tag was ripped off at Heathrow on my way out, probably not deliberate, but ruined the whole purpose of them.

[@ginaperks1720]

I use AirTags too. They work perfectly inside your case.

[@agirlandherpassport]

I put them on the inside. I put them inside a pocket or a shoe so they don’t get lost.

[@nickgiles7568]

Have you ever tried Athens to Dublin and on to US , Dublin has USA Pre-clearance so makes it easier on the other end to pass through

[@agirlandherpassport]

American Airlines only offer me a connection through Heathrow.

[@declanburke2703]

@ ok but Aegean or Aerlingus to Dublin and fairly good choice Dublin to US ( off top of my head United , American , more but can’t remember names !)

[@taki2003]

I can relate! my last trip to Athens, KLM lost our luggage. My son and I finally got our bags on day 3 !! then on the return trip, flight was so delayed, we missed our connection and had to stay and extra night in Amsterdam. LOL

[@agirlandherpassport]

Three days is too long! Although I wouldn’t say no to a night in Amsterdam.

[@taki2003]

@@agirlandherpassport agreed! unfortunately, we got to our overnight hotel just next to Schiphol at 10pm and were booked on a flight at 6am...

[@agirlandherpassport]

@@taki2003 That is unfortunate!

[@thomasj3421]

It's great they they sent the bags straight to your house. Is this common practice?

[@Studio7t7]

hey lady! You popped up into my for you page - woop! Wishing you a wonderful 2025 hope its awesome for you lovely xx

[@agirlandherpassport]

Happy New Year to you too!

[@randomgeezer3456]

Happy New Year! Nice to see there are still things that will always be constants in our lives. The sun rising in the East. Death. Taxes. And LHR being a complete bleepshow. Several months back, I dropped a comment on one of your videos mentioning that LHR feels like it was designed by M.C. Escher. 🤣

[@agirlandherpassport]

Haha and run by dictators.

[@georgepapastergiou9917]

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!

[@MontiniaTsiagkouris]

Hi there! I'm going back for a visit in a few weeks also, and I was wondering what to do for phone service. Do you get it through Cosmote or something like Airalo? 16:47

[@agirlandherpassport]

I have an esim through Cosmote. If you think you need one before you arrive, then I would do something like Airalo.

[@mikefilimon1584]

Uh ohh….I gotta watch this and “come to the rescue!” lol! ATH Venizelos airport just has this eerie vibe to it early in the morning. Still good.

[@agirlandherpassport]

Haha! Can you tell me what happened to my bag?!?! lol. It does, doesn’t it?

[@mikefilimon1584]

@ 😂 Over zealous screening staff maintains mistake as they said in Heathrow I imagine.

[@agirlandherpassport]

@ I think they had new screen machines actually. One bag didn’t have an image. But Heathrow is strict!

[@manapualabs]

I hope you have a Happy Holiday with your family! Thanks for the informative vlog on the actual travel experience from ATH to DFW on American. We're evaluating airlines to travel to Greece now prior to booking our flights. Good to know details. Premium Economy sounds good (well, better than economy anyway!)😎

[@agirlandherpassport]

Thank you! You’re welcome. I have an older video on American premium economy although this was a different plane. I prefer it as I know I am not comfortable in an Economy seat anymore.

[@ricardo68]

Happy 2025 to you and your family, Tiffany. Keep the videos coming, they’re great. 👍🏻😊 I’ll be in Corfu again in August. 😊

[@agirlandherpassport]

You too! Thanks.

[@declanburke2703]

Merry Christmas and happy new Year . Enjoy all your videos , am an Irishman who lived in Crete u ntil recently ( for three years ) so lots of “experiences “At Athens and Chania / Heiraklion airports though mostly good ! Luckily had a shorter flight home than you had ! Am still a Greek fan and though am back living in Ireland and going to spend the month of March in Crete , so looking forward to.. really enjoy you r reviews of the islands , so many I ve still to visit . Especially the smaller ones . Plan to visit some of them during my month in Crete ( if ferry’s allow it ) enjoy your hols at home 🎉

[@agirlandherpassport]

Thank you! Which smaller islands are you thinking of?

[@mikefilimon1584]

Do you ever take Aegean or Sky to London?

[@agirlandherpassport]

No, I don’t want to have to make a separate connection with airlines.

[@LAbee333]

​@agirlandherpassport The less connections the better!!!

[@agirlandherpassport]

@@LAbee333 One if fine but that is all I am okay with.

I keep forgetting that you are in north Dallas now and it’s not 2:55am where you are at.

Amsterdam is the airport I avoid if possible. Happy travels!

[@agirlandherpassport]

Oh that is interesting as I only have heard good things. Thanks!

[@greeceundiscovered9670]

Heathrow is a lot worse than Amsterdam

[@courseware1241]

Tiffany, Happy New Year to you and your family! Why do I feel jealous every time I see you in another country? Is this normal? Does any other Greek follower feel the same as I do? Do I need to see a doctor about this? Feels weird...

[@jamescardoness3037]

Can't help feeling that's when you know an American, when they get on a Plane then the complaints begin ! it's odd because when your feet are on the ground your Greek videos are usually great !

[@kathyokinaga9888]

We have free baggage checkin because my husband is retired from American Airlines. We still don't check in because it's not worth the frustration of baggage claim, but also less stress with less stuff. We Americans don't need as much stuff as we think we do.

[@tessaknoblauch4498]

I remember you saying in a video of yours that if you have a connection in Heathrow, be sure to give yourself PLENTY of time. I did that with our connection. We had 4 hours. But the day of they cancelled our flight from London to Chicago. Without any notice they switched our flight - now London to Dallas. We went from a 4hr layover to 2hrs, and when we arrived to London we still didn't know our seat assignment. It was super stressful, and I was beyond pissed! Needless to say, my Heathrow experience was not a great one.

[@agirlandherpassport]

That does sound stressful. It took me over an hour to get from my arrival gate through security and then to get to the restaurant I had lunch at, so I can't imagine only having two hours.

[@jjulian1783]

Empty middle seat. Poor man’s first class!

[@agirlandherpassport]

Right?

[@sakisathan9176]

I feel jealous, Tiffany. I would love to travel to the U.S. as we usually do every February to NYC and Times Square, but not this year-too many extra bills to pay. I hope you have a wonderful trip and a pleasant stay. Don't forget to share some videos, and make sure to grab a burger from Five Guys!

[@agirlandherpassport]

I get that. Flights have gotten so expensive. I paid much more this year. I will definitely share.

[@sakisathan9176]

@@agirlandherpassport Tickets are fine; the problem is the extra taxes from last year.

Happy New Year!! Have a safe flight back home and dont forget us! Take care + God Bless you

Sorry to hear that. Hopefully you can go next year!
