1999 Moorea dec 5
December 5 - 12, 1999
$2842 plus $639 round trip air fare from St. Louis
We left St. Louis at 6:22 am on Sunday Dec.5 on American and flew to Dallas. They served breakfast. We got to Dallas at 8:15 and rode the train to our next gate. We left at 9:16 and got to LAX at 10:36. We checked in with our Club Med representative at 11:00. We found our gate and went to McDonalds for lunch. Our Air Tahiti Nui flight left at !30 a half hour late. The plane was an airbus. The service was great! The food was O.K. We got lunch and dinner. All drinks were free. They handed out flowers. The attendants changed clothes. The movies were free. About 3 hours into the flight, the turbulence was so bad that everyone started getting sick. The attendants were rushing around cleaning up after people. The bathrooms were filthy from sick people. The smell was overwhelming. This went on for 2 to 3 hours. The last 2 hours were fine and the pilot did apologize for the bumpy flight.
We got to Tahiti at 8:30 PM. Immigration was a breeze. We picked up our luggage, went through customs and checked in with Club Med and got our flower leis and waited for our flight to Moorea. The flight left at 9:30 and lasted 10 minutes. We got to Moorea, checked in with Club Med, (this was our first time at a Club Med bit not our first all- inclusive), and got our room assignments. It was raining. We boarded the bus for the 40 minute ride to Club Med. We got to Club Med and the rep explained a few things and took us to our fare, #R22. We opened the door and found TWIN BEDS, a very small closet and bathroom with a shower and a hair dryer. There was a 110 plug but it did not work. The spreads and curtains were very faded but the room was clean. There were two safes in the bottom of the closet. We pushed the beds together. It was very warm but the ceiling fan made it bearable. We went to bed at 11:00. We could hear loud music playing somewhere but it only lasted a few minutes.
