The inaugural sailing of the Icon of the Seas was nothing short of amazing!

My journey kicked off at South Bend Airport with Delta Airlines. I had two connections—one in Atlanta and another in Paris—before landing in my final destination of Basel, Switzerland, near the border of France. Upon arrival, I opted for a taxi to my hotel but soon discovered the airport had two taxi locations. One for drivers within France and the other for Switzerland, where I was headed.
