Being first time international travelers, we had no idea what to expect. We were a little anxious before the flight because sitting on a plane for 8 hours is a lot different than sitting on a plane for 1 or 2. Security took longer than normal, but it wasn't so bad being with a large group of people we were all friends with. Credit to all the chaperones for keeping 24 nervous high school students together and calm in a crowded airport.
The actual plane, we figured out, was different too. As we walked through the aisles to find our seats, which was no easy task, we heard every language from Spanish to languages we couldn't even identify. It was weird, it was our first time being the people that spoke a different language. Everything in the plane was labeled in three languages: Spanish, English and Catalán. And unlike any other flight we've been on, they served you actual food. We got dinner and breakfast on the plane.
Movies were playing the whole time and there was a radio attached to every seat. You could plug your headphones into your armrest and listen to all sorts of music or watch the tv. They also gave everyone a pillow and a blanket for the flight.
Overall it was a fun experience that was just the beginning of what we knew was going to be an amazing trip.
