And so finally we get to travel!!!
You have no idea how much this means to me.
So after the sad and disappointing postponement of our Germany trip back in December, we had scheduled the flights for a December trip, with March as the interim that we had to properly book them in the SQ online system.
Long story short, we were going to be charged more PLUS the kids' tickets in December would have been exorbitant, so we made a really snap decision to YOLO and just go for our trip during the one week March school holidays. Costs were manageable and we could travel around more countries in Europe rather than only in Germany.
We decided we should just 'go big or go home' and went for the pricey Switzerland option. This was our best chance to all see snow (the wifey and kids' first time) as a family.
The itinerary was to fly into Frankfurt, and then immediately take the train down to Zurich and spend two nights. Followed by Grindelwald for two nights, two nights in Zermatt, and then one final night back in Frankfurt (to do the mandatory PCR test to qualify to fly home).
Turns out by the time we flew out, Singapore had dropped the PCR test pre-departure requirement and only needed an ART test. So easy!
We flew out on Friday just before midnight, and returned on the following Sunday evening. Talk about really maxing out our trip!
