On the departure, I arrived at like 2 am; then had to sit for 2 hours in an empty, closed down airport hall. On the other hand, I suppose I did get to where I was going in one piece, so that's something to be happy about! And Frankfurt was a nicer -- but it was still an airport and it was on the euro which REALLY sucked.
I got through passport control no problem. Then we put 15 people and their luggage on a 80s mercedes passenger van. For the whole time I was there it didn't rain once.
