My first commercial flight was from LAX to HNL. My then boyfriend 2 months prior went on a 3 day ski trip to Tahoe and told me it was a "guys only" trip. I was livid so I booked a week trip to Hawaii by myself. He told me I couldn't go without him and I told him that he went to Tahoe without me...so I went.

It was on a DC10 on Continental. I had only been in a plane twice before. Once I got a ride home from some guy and a couple I met in Parker Arizona (Colorado River) and the other was a DC3 that I decided to jump out of. On the trip back home they overbooked my flight so I HAD to sit in first. It was a nice ending to a great trip.

BTW that boyfriend NEVER went on trips without inviting me again.
