This was pretty much the longest week ever for me, but we're FINALLY home!
We decided to give Space A a try on the way back, since Logan's parents live very close to an Air Force Base that has some flights to the west coast (there was a flight to Hawaii listed, but it left a day early, so we missed it). First there were huge problems with the aircraft which resulted in us getting up in the air, only to turn around and come back. We finally got to California, but apparently our timing was bad, because everyone else was trying to get back to Japan mostly, and pretty much every flight from the US to Korea stops in Japan.
After waiting around in the terminal for around 12 hours with a whole bunch of people who don't supervise their children, we didn't get on the flight we wanted, so we decided that we wouldn't bother trying anymore. Gideon was getting really fed up with everything and I found an excellent deal for 3 tickets from San Francisco to Seoul for only around $450 each with seats in Economy Plus!

There were a couple other flights we could have tried for, but we decided that the guarantee was worth the money, especially since it got us home MUCH faster.
Anyways...we're finally home, and have pretty much decided that while saving the money is nice, traveling SpaceA with kids really isn't worth it for us, especially if we really need to get somewhere. We may try it again in the future, but only if we leave Gideon with his grandparents.
Luckily, by just taking the flight from Kansas to California, we cut over $1000 off our ticket cost, even with the hotel, taxi, and rental car expense. It definitely was a learning experience for us, but our timing was terrible.
