Hi again,
that's wierd about the SpanAir deal, i guess it's because it's Good Friday. Anyways, i took the trip in 1999. And it cost me about 30.000pts(return trip), i dunno what that is in US dollors. Anyways, i didn't think it was really uncomfortable. Well if you know the people in your room, then it's much better i guess. I was with an old lady who i didn't know, who had a hard time controlling her bodily functions, so it wasn't a great experience. But I wouldn't tell you not to do it. If you can't get a flight, then take the train! It will be fine, just remember you're not in a hotel, you're inside a
tube-like vehicle travelling at high speeds aross the continent. With that in mind, i think the trip will be fine.... Bring some cards or board games and have some fun!
Saludos,
Rhonda
