Well, after what happened with our return flights (see post above), I decided to check on our outbound flights. Sure enough, Iberia has discontinued their Boston to Madrid flight on Wednesdays (or whatever day it was we had booked). So, we are now booked AA from Boston to London, then BA London to Cairo. The flight gets into Cairo late, which was why I liked the Iberia itinerary better. But, oh well. I think we'll have friends on that flight, maybe???
We have a looooong layover at LHR, but maybe we can get to the V&A museum. Missed that one on our 1 and only trip to London several years ago.
Economy class going to Cairo and business class on the way home from Amman. Hoping for a good tail wind going east!!
