Day 4 - travel from Dublin to Athens

Travel to Athens did not go well. I ran into issues with Aer Lingus not being able to check my bag all the way through to Athens via London Gatwick, and also not being able to issue a boarding pass for my connecting Aegean flight, both booked with UA miles. I did eventually get there, but not without a lot of hassle and hustling. You can read about that on a separate thread in the UA forum if you want all the details:

On arrival at Athens Airport I took the airport express train to Megaro Mousikis station on the #3 line and just a 10 min walk to my hotel. Checked in at 6:15p.m. Went out to Goody's nearby for a burger around 8 but no touring tonight - just too tired.
