No, you can’t go to Athens, you go back to Amman!
That was pretty frustating and made me almost cried; yet I couldn’t show my tears
in front of them, the Middle East Airlines officers!
After spending beautiful journeys in Jordan, time to continued my
trip to Greece. I flew with MEA-Middle East Airlines that brought me to Beirut,
Lebanon for 12 hours transit. It was around 10 p.m when I arrived. I actually already checked-in from Jordan to Greece and had two boarding passes. However, as a first timer having long hours transit, I came innocently to transit desk. I showed my passport and boarding pass, then they gave me two meals vouchers. They asked me a few questions; the reason why I wanted to go to Greece, did I have enough money with me, as well as how may days will I spend for my vacation in Greece. Right after I answered those questions, they said "I keep your passport here, you go to duty free area, find the restaurant and a place to rest. Go back here at 6 am tomorrow", I nodded thinking that this was a normal procedure.
