If a summer eurotrip is still on your horizon, experts and fellow travelers warn that this is the season to get to the airport early and pack your patience.
RELATED: Here’s why we’re seeing so many flight cancellations and delays this summer
A favorable exchange rate between the dollar and the euro may make a summer getaway to Europe look attractive this year, but travelers who have been there warn that the continent’s airports are a mess.
Mark Cassell, a political science professor at Kent State University who lives in Washington, D.C., told USA TODAY that his experience traveling home from Amsterdam this week was marred by flight cancelations, long lines and lost bags.
“Just getting my boarding pass required at least an hour and half of waiting, and waiting to get through security was another three hours,” he said. “I looked at the number of steps I took and it was at least two to three kilometers of lines.”

Seems alot like "restricting" everything. But we can all call it limiting and mistakes. Seems about right with the world agenda these days 🙄🤦♂️
Been to Europe many times. I cannot imaged the smell.
Can I go to look for my luggage? I'm sure I can find it. It's green wrapped with a yellow belt
Stay home!
If you lose your luggage, it will be delivered to your house in 2-5 days. (There’s a tag they put on luggage when you check in, and they can find you and deliver it.)
As a Canadian I am asking this openly everywhere today!
Minister of Transportation, are you such an idiot you need the "Why did Canadians blockade?", question answered again, and again and again? Your answers are script and insufficient; clearly you are reading off the WEF excuse card as your group does and is obvious. We shake our heads knowing you have no idea of how obvious you all are, what idiots you all are turning out to be!
This is your responsibility to fulfill in your mandate! The blockade is because you refuse to fulfill this mandate: 1.) Quote_"We must continue to address the profound systemic inequities and disparities that remain present in the core fabric of our society, including our core institutions. To this effect, it is essential that Canadians in every region of the country see themselves reflected in our Government’s priorities and our work. As Minister, I expect you to include and collaborate with various communities, and actively seek out and incorporate in your work, the diverse views of Canadians." Clearly you are failing and a world laughing stock outside the WEF! Canadians have clearly as a majority NO!, to surveillance, NO! to tracking, NO! to Arrive Can! On top of choosing to be daft and ineffective for Canada and selling Her out to a German Nazi, American Philanthropists and Greedy Corporate "SHAREHOLDERS' instead of being loyal to the real "SHAREHOLDERS' THE CANADIAN POOR TO WEALTHY!
