Police once apprehended a man at a train station in Kyjov (Kiyov), Czech Republic. He was reported to be drunk but they only found him terribly confused. Turns out, he was a Ukrainian trying to return to Kyjev (Kyiv) but a cashier in another town misunderstood and showed him the wrong train.
In fact, the detour could be less than double that. The way to get to Kyiv from Czechia is to get on a train to Przemysl, Poland near Ukrainian borders, from where wide-gauge trains to Ukraine are available. From Zlín, a trolleybus or local train will take you 15 km to Otrokovice where direct trains to Przemysl are available. From Kyjov, the easiest way to get to the Przemysl train is 45 minutes on an express to Staré Město u Uherského Hradiště.
Mangers daughter and a friend of hers where about to go for season work in Australia and do a bit of travel around and found a very cheap ticket to Sidney, bought it and went off.
The giveaway here is that it’s Salzburg, not Vienna. International flyers into Austria are almost universally going to end up in Vienna by default. Vienna’s airport sees ~20x the annual passenger count.
Paywall. Isn’t stupid for an article like this? It’s a curiosity that attracts many people from the world. That page is designed to just be ad-supported. Nobody living outside Austria would ever subscribe to “the local - Austria” just because it’s curious about a meme/ad.
Why even bother writing that article if nobody can read it
I once almost accidentally flew to Puerto Rico rather than my city on the way back from a Thanksgiving trip because they unexpectedly delayed the flight and switched the gates
Maybe there was some Australia-themed event when you were there but they don’t put foreign flags up as a joke. Was the Australian flag the only flag you saw?
