The trip back to Phoenix is underway. I had an Uber at the apartment at 4:20 am for my 6:00 am flight from Montpellier to Paris, after getting about three hours of sleep. I could have gotten an extra hour, but I started a Netflix series a week ago and had only one episode left to watch. I didn’t want to cheat myself out of the ending.
The airport in Montpellier is relatively small. I’d say it’s bigger than Charlottesville but smaller than Richmond. Arriving at the airport 90 minutes before a flight, even when traveling internationally, is more than enough. In fact, the Air France check-in counter doesn’t open until 4:30 am, so arriving any earlier would be pointless.
