How We Met
We met working together at Napleton. A few of our mutual friends were going to a party and invited Cat. Austin blindsided Cat and picked her up for the party although a mutual friend was supposed to pick her up. It was a super cold night and Cat borrowed Austin's hoodie. The party was AWKWARD and we never thought we would hang out again. Cat took Austin's jacket home and a few days later went to Austin's house to drop it off. We ended up hanging out all night and have been inseparable ever since. A few months later we found out we were pregnant with our oldest daughter. We sacrificed, struggled, worked our butts off and now we are living the dream. Our happily ever after!

United Airlines
We personally have used United Airlines to fly to Italy and did not have any issues. We recommend flying into Florence and renting a car. You may also fly into Rome (it is the cheapest option) and either rent a car and drive to Florence or Empoli. OR take the train to Florence and rent a car in Florence.

ITA Airlines
ITA is Italys newest airline. We have heard good things about it. They offer direct flights to Italy.

FAQs
Question
What Florida airport do I fly out of?
Answer
You can either fly out of Miami or Fort Lauderdale. Fort Lauderdale offers direct flights to Italy.
Question
What Airport do I fly in to?
Answer
You can either fly into Florence or Rome. Rome is cheaper to fly into. If you fly into Rome you will either have to rent a car and drive to Florence or ride the train to Florence. We would then recommend renting a car upon your arrival to Florence. If flying into Florence we recommend renting a car right away. Taxis become pretty costly especially for foreigners.
Question

Answer
There are multiple airlines you can fly with. We have always used United airlines. There is also ITA airlines, American airlines and Delta.
