It Happened to Me

It’s a bad news / good news day

  • Bad news: My 11 a.m. Tuesday flight to New York was cancelled Monday afternoon. I now have to get to the airport at 5 a.m. to play standby roulette.
  • Good news: Managed to get a seat on 7:30 a.m. flight to Atlanta, and a connection to LaGuardia.
  • Bad news: Middle seat…
  • Good news: …in an exit row!
  • Bad news: The layover time in Atlanta is 30 minutes.
  • Good news: Doing a 10K bike ride most days has made me pretty good at airport sprints. I should be able to make it, assuming the flight doesn’t encounter any delays…
