Air France to Italy??? Tre Bien!

While any number of reputable carriers could get us across the pond, we are very excited to hear that we will be traveling in style, via Air France. This means we'll have first class service, a little better food (you know the French and their food?!) a wee roomier seat plus all of the other travel ammenities you'd expect on a long flight. If you only make one trip abroad, this is the way to go! Oh..this also means that we'll touch down in Paris for a moment or two, catch a tease of a glimps of the Eiffel and then be on our way to Milan International Airport. Ahh...there is nothing bad about this trip!

We will depart (from MHS) and return (Separately with your families to your homes) to Houston INTERCONTINENTAL airport.

Departure:
3/13/2011 Air France Flight # 639 5:20PM
Arriving 3/14/2011 (we will now be a day ahead of you due to time zone change) in Paris! at 8:35am
3/14/2011 Air France Flight # 1714 12:50pm

3/21/2011 Air France Flight #636 at 10:30am
