Curse you, JetBlue!
Why, you ask? Because the discount airliner doesn't have a direct flight from Newark Liberty International Airport to Nashville, Tenn., where I am covering the 40th annual Country Music Awards.
JetBlue has great rates to Nashville from JFK Airport in New York, but that airport is so far away from my New Jersey home and traffic is always such a nightmare. So I chose a 6 a.m. Delta flight on Sunday, connecting in Atlanta to Music City.
Everything was fine, right up to the point where we were about to lift off, when suddenly several loud banging sounds came from the right side of the plane, accompanied by sparks that shot up past my window seat behind the right wing.
