The Purgatory of Modern Travel: When is Travel Not Worth It?
🏧 A traveler's journey to a friend's destination wedding in Mexico turned into a 30-hour ordeal due to a one-hour flight delay, missed connections, and overnight stay in Atlanta. The trip involved excessive spending, including $62.50 on airport bar food and $16.50 for a bourbon, with no hotel reimbursement from Delta despite initial assurances. The experience prompted reflections on the nature of modern travel and the loss of its romanticized adventure. Despite the frustrations, the traveler ultimately found joy upon reaching the destination, Isla Mujeres, indicating the allure of travel persists despite the challenges.
