26-year-old plans trip to South Korea and Japan for her and 3 of her friends, backs out when friends add 3 other people to the trip without her permission: 'It is kind of a logistical nightmare to plan a trip consisting of 7 people'

Planning a group trip is never easy, but there are certainly levels to its difficulty. Planning a trip with four people is a whole different ball game than planning it with 7 or 8 people. Everyone who has done the latter has had some kind of nightmare situation as a result of it. This summer I went on my first big girls trip and disaster arose before we even showed up. My friend and I thought we would be driving with the planner of the trip to the Airbnb we were renting upstate, but we found out 3 days before the trip that we had to arrange our own transportation! I was grateful that OurBus could take us there and back for $70, but my friend was understandably upset. If she had canceled after finding that out, she could've found herself at the center of an AITA situation much like this one.

The woman in this story thought that her international vacation was only going to be attended by her friends, but when one of her friends invited extra people without asking her, she was not going to just accept that. If her vacation was going to be ruined, she'd rather not go on it.
