Where I stayed

On the Plane

Flag of United States Los Angeles, California
Saturday, February 10, 2007

The traffic into LA was not bad, which is unusual. Things were going fine at check in until the lady told us we were not going to be sitting together. WTF? Like we want to sit away from each other for 10 hours. DH's airline itinerary had us sitting together and in great seats to boot. Apparently what happened is that when he paid for the tickets on separate cards (his on a business card, mine on our personal card) it kicked us to different seats. This, I guess, is because he is a frequent flyer Gold member, and I am not. So it kept his good seat and kicked me to some totally sucky seat. Well DH was livid. The lady was clacking away on her computer trying to fix it, but hadn't gotten anywhere.

We went over to the Admiral's Club and got settled in. DH then went over to the Club desk to see if they could do anything. Fortunately, it had been fixed. What a relief. (Although DH is still going to send American Airlines a nasty letter pointing out the stupidity of our reserved seats being changed based on form of payment and frequent flyer status). The flight itself was ok: had dinner (chicken or beef? always choose the beef!, watched a movie, drank tea-I love their tea). Then it was time to settle down for some sleep.

Well, what a joke that was! I had gotten maybe 30 minutes of sleep when the guy behind me started this *cough cough* thing every 5 minutes. Had he never heard of cough drops? I very nearly threw some at his head I was so mad. Some woman decided to clip *all* of her nails at, I dunno, 3 or 4 am. Who would do that on an airplane? I just don't understand people. I finally got maybe another 30 minutes of sleep just before breakfast out of sheer exhaustion. Continued on next travelogue...
