We are interested in the Holy Land tour, leaving Rome and ending in Israel. Honestly, it's the airfare that's putting a damper on the whole idea. If we book airfare through O, we're concerned about multiple layovers. In our experience, the more layovers, the more likely luggage gets lost. That's why we always fly nonstop. Also, my husband needs the extra legroom, so we definitely need preferred seating. If we book our own flights, it's ridiculously expensive, since we're arriving at one airport and leaving from another(around $5000 extra). Thanks so much for you comments and ideas so far. Everyone has great suggestions.
