I was stupid. I tend to be that sometimes. I wanted to go to Paris from Thursday morning until Monday night (May 2-6). I somehow managed to book plane $160 non-refundable plane tickets from Thursday night till Monday morning where I'd have to be at the airport at 5am. That was really stupid.
Even though they're non-refundable tickets, I decided to try to get a refund. Less than 24 hours after I booked the tickets, I sent out emails. In total, over a 2 week period, I probably sent out 10 emails and called over 5 times. And then my mom probably did the same thing for me.
In the end, I was told I couldn't do anything. Boo life. But I tried to be positive and look at the fact that I had 3 days in Paris!
Yesterday I bought a plane ticket for Monday evening from Paris to Toulouse--this way it wouldn't be terrible getting to the airport. I would just lose my other ticket.
I came home today and found an email from Air France saying they refunded my tickets and I got $40 back. But in the 2nd email they said that because I did it within 24 hours they would give me back $144 instead! Praise God! After almost a month it all worked out!
But then I realized that I only had a plane ticket from Paris and no way there to begin with. Hence I just bought my fourth plane ticket for Paris. LOL.
In the end, 2 days before my trip, I finally have what I wanted. God is good. He really is.
