Imagine this: You’re about to leave for your dream vacation that you’ve had planned for months. Your bag is packed, your passport and ticket are ready in hand, and your taxi is set to arrive at any moment. Then, on your phone, an email pops up reading “your flight has been canceled.” If you are like me, you panic. What do you do? There aren’t any other flights that could leave right now to your destination, your hotel is booked, and you have a week full of tours lined up.
After you’ve come to the realization that you’re not going to your original destination, there are multiple things to be done. You’ll need to call your airline, tours, and hotel to tell them that you can’t make it and need a refund. However, most importantly, it’s time to book a last minute trip. You still have a week off of school or work, and rather than being sad about your cancelled trip, make a new, spontaneous one to journey on the next day.
What is the best place to travel to at the last minute? Paris, France.
Paris, France has so much to offer for the solo traveler, the big family, or the loving couple. With the rich history, beautiful canals, picturesque landmarks, and exciting activities, Paris is the ultimate place to reroute for your dream vacation. Below are a series of pictures from my last minute trip to France that I planned in only a few hours.












It’s easy to panic when a sudden change in plans happens. If your flight gets canceled, take a deep breath and realize that some things happen for a reason. There’s a world of opportunity at your fingertips and you might end up falling in love with a city you never expected to.
The world awaits…discover it.
This was an amazing blog for me to read. I plan on going to Paris in 2 years so this was great to see places I could visit.
