My Luck!

I mean really - what is it about me and travel? There is not one trip where I fly that I don't encounter travel problems. Honestly there has been, weather, late planes, flat tires, hitting a bird, a weird noise coming from under the floor boards (that 3 hours later was determined to be a disconnected air duct) and a flight attendant who refused to fly.

Tuesday morning I was awoken by a call from American Airlines telling me that my 1:30 flight back from St. Louis was cancelled. This of course was at 5:00 am about 20 minutes before I had to get up to get ready fro my flight to St. Louis.

Then of course on Thursday I get to the airport at 6:00 am for a flight to beautiful Evansville, IN. After I've already checked in and 10 minutes before we were supposed too board they cancel the flight. UGH! I get rebooked on a 9:50 that is delayed for 2 hours. I finally take off for the 45 minute flight but by that time I could have driven from Chicago to Evansville. Why is it so difficult!

Sorry for the vent but word to the wise - don't travel with me... unless you want to spend hours in the airport sitting on uncomfortable seats while you attempt to stay entertained by watching all the crazy people there.

But the crazy people do entertain me.
