First thing next morning, got over to the FBO, flew to PDX with a fantastic crew, Uber'd to town, spent the day and flew back in the evening. Was a fun mid-week 24h adventure. The flight itself was smooth, quick, in a comfy modern plane with a fully stocked minibar. Crew was friendly. No security / airport shenanigans was a huge plus.
