For those of us who travel often, it not if the plane is late, its if the plane ever shows up. I experienced my first late plane of concern last night.
I was coming back from Milwaukee (a relatively short flight), but needed to be home at a reasonable hour to drive to Houston today for my CCRA certification exam. The exam is given twice a year (and cost almost $500 to register-regardless of whether you actually show up).
So, when my plane landed, and it wasn't in Dallas, I became concerned.
After a slight detour and landing in Witchata Falls for gas (and storm avoidance) we continued to Dallas (and arrived only an hour and a half late).
Great for the stress levels. But still enough time for a decent nights sleep. I was in bed by midnight! Yeah!!
