Watch your schedulling
|
Sardegna is not an example of easy transport, so watch your transportation plan. I couldn't get a ticket for the car, so I decided to let it in Italy and rent another upon arrival at Olbia.
Everything went well, the only difficulty was that the rent-a-car is in the airport and closes at midnight. My boat should arrive at 11.30PM , so I'd planned to run out the boat, leaving the family with the luggage, get a taxi to the 6 km to the airport, and return with the car. The big problem was the delayed departure of the boat. |
I adverted the rent-a-car company about the delay, and got the promise that the lady would wait about half an hour.
Too short, the delay was bigger than that!.
I tried to phone again from the boat, and couldn't do it. No signal. I only recovered signal 20 minutes before landing and the lady was still there, but announcing that she couldn't wait much more.
I was the first to jump to the quay, and... no taxi. I phoned the airport in despair asking the lady if she could pick me in the harbor, with the car, and I would drive her afterwards wherever she needed.
No way, "very irregular", she gave me 10 minutes more.
Inside the harbor I found an advertising of a radio taxi and used it. He promised to come, but he was still outside Olbia, and would take more 15 minutes to come.
New phone call to airport, the lady blaming me, but... staying.
Everything ended well (even the deserved fat tip to the lady), but that kind of tension is exactly what we don't need in vacations, so, take care.
