The wifey's plane was scheduled to leave at 2 for Mcallen! At 12 or so, on the way there, she got a cancellation notice. We parked while she made a phone call, to find out what to do. They had automatically put her on the 7, so we came back home. Here, she notices there's room on the 5...She books it, and cancels the 7. On the way out the door at 3:30, she gets another cancellation notice. She goes back and rebooks the 7 again. We leave at 5 to go back to IAH. She gets a delay notice for the 5...Turns out the previous cancellation was for the 7. She was confused on how she was able to book a flight on a plane that was cancelled. I drop her off at the airport. She texts me from the gate: "I'm leaving on the 9 with an hour delay. The 7 is now delayed an hour and a half." {It's ok...I'm more than confused at this point too!} I ask to come get her, and she stubbornly says no...Of course!! She still hasn't left. She boarded at 9:45, and they have a broken plane. The 7 just took off! Emoticon  4951

Don't you wish you had driven? You could have slow-poked it and still already been there. 4951

@donnatella: Yes, but I didn't really have a choice. Originally, we were going leave yesterday. We'd all have to go though...And I can't take a chance that Bill's a dud, with no one here at home.

She is in the air!! I hope she gets some rest, and there's no more hiccups. Maybe she'll get some camera time...That would make her week all better. Emoticon  4951

Well, I spoke too soon. She said she was signing off because they were ready. Apparently, the pilots have too many hours...So they are looking for more pilots now. Emoticon  4951

No way!Praying she gets on the way soon.  Poor you, too, you have to be up at the crack of dawn with those active girls, and puppies, and to get the food ready you want to smoke for all of us.  
 
@Fallon: I'm fine...Just worried about her stress level. She's not like me. I'm actually going to get her in a few. She's fed up and has booked a 9AM flight.

@BBQguy did you get her back home?
 
@Fallon: Yep. She's getting in her jammies, and headed to bed. Her bag(full of clothes, DOJ equipment, and perishable food) is still there. They said it would be 2-4 hours to get it. It's almost laughable at this point. Emoticon

So sorry ya'll had to deal with all this tonight.See if they will bring the baggage to ya'll tonight, and just leave it on your porch.  Maybe they wont wake up the whole house when they come.
 
@Fallon: She's pretty upbeat actually, and says thanks! She doesn't trust them to get her bag here on time. I don't blame her. It'll leave on that flight if/when they find a pilot(s). Also, she said the worst part was wanting a drink. Emoticon And by the time she thought about it at the airport, all the places were closed.

Ugh. I hate all things airport related. @ohhappypets and I had an experience like that. We were headed to Missouri for our grandpa's funeral service. After delays, cancelations, reassignments, gate changes, a minor freak out (not by me!)...we missed the service by a long shot. It was a complete nightmare.
 
The kicker was that we were trying to fly American Airlines. Our grandpa retired from American Airlines, so it was kind sad that they couldn't get us there in time.
 
Hope your wife has a better experience today! 4951
