I'm glad you made it OK, TCD.
I've never had a bad flight, although there was this one time....
At band camp?

Mike just noticed your Avi,made chuckle just a bit
I just signed up for a T-Mobile Hotspot account at LAX on Thursday, $6 an hour, no contract. But they do charge you for the full hour
Speaking of LAX, our flight back to Tucson was delayed about 1 1/2 hours then when we board the crew tells us that the bathrooms are downbut they are going to fly anyway rather than cancell the flight
Got to town about 1:30am instead of 11pm. But it was good to be home rather than in LA for the night.
I've never been to an airport that didn't have free wifi.
very few airports have free wi-fi. most have pay. I have an aircard (which im using right now) and its a lifesaver
yea that story isnt shit for worst airline experiences.
about a year ago i was flying from san diego, ca to dallas, tx. We got to the airport early(atleast an hour). Flight was delayed an hour due to weather in TX. Flight was perfect... we landed in DFW and they said that it would be 90 minutes to get a gate. There were 50 planes ahead of us waiting for a gate. 90 mins came and went and they said it would be another 90mins.
To make a long story short. We sat for 4hrs on the tarmack after waiting 2 hours to get on the 3hr flight. And after waiting all that time they opened the back of the plane and made us walk to the terminal.
They did however open the bar for free on the plane for the wait.... but that just led to a bunch of drunken people that needed to use the bathroom.

You got that right!

To finish this story, after about 4 hours on the plane, we finally got off, and you thought it was bad ON the plane...
Once walking up the jetway, within 10 seconds I knew this was a mistake. I wanted to be BACK on the plane.
It was near 88 degrees with 80%+ humidty and NO power to the airport. That mean, no food and no A/C or fans or anything. They had water and chips. At least the plane had A/C.
We were in that airport sweating our asses off for another 8 hours before finally getting on a plane to Kona.
Then, once in Kona, it was 11 PM at night, the luggage took 90 minutes and we still had not eaten anything. No restrauants open, so we hit a supermarket.
We called our hotel once we landed, it was full, so they sent us to another hotel, not bad, at least we had a place.
The shelves were EMPTY on the supermarket. We found some bread, peanut butter and jelly, got the last 4 gallons of water and some donuts.
From the time we left PHX and got to a hotel in Kona, it was 23 hours. I had a 2 y/o the whole time.
First real meal was at breakfast the next day and they had a limited menu. Things didn't start feeling like a vacation until the following day.
To add 1 more thing... 70% of the airport employees took off home to check on their family. The staff was VERY limited and people were treating the employees like sh*t. Once they starting announcing flights to the other islands, it was madness!!!!
We actually had my in-laws act like they were disabled so they could get on the pre-board with us because only 60% of the people were making it over that night. It worked.
I could not believe how sh*tty people are. I was ready to get in a fight or 2 or 3 for some of the employees. They were getting trashed there by people.
They had NO power and very limited resources. People were expecting first class ammenties when it really was kind of like 3rd world country conditions, meaning no power, limited water supply and basically no food supply.
