Easter trip Day 29 - Rome to Nice

OMG! We're about to leave the guesthouse for Rome fiumicino airport when one of the Korean gal told us that all Easyjet flights from Rome have been cancelled.

I can't believe this man! We've just booked the tickets yesterday night and this morning the volcanic ashes have spreaded over to Italy!

BF also informed us that his flight from Singapore to London has been cancelled, next available flight tentatively on 20th April. Since CS and I can't even fly directly to Portugal, we're only left with 2 choices. Take the train to Switzerland or France and see how we can get on to Spain from there.




The train station is chaotic with long, atrocious queue to the ticketing booth!!!
Due to the closure of Rome airport, people are flocking to the train station to get tickets and travel by alternative route. 

We were lucky to be able to buy our train tickets to NICE from the self-service ticketing machie, without the need to queue at the booth. Phew! Finally found a way to get out of Rome and hopefully will be able to proceed on smoothly to Spain afterwards!
