Another night in the Country Suites and an early rise for the 0700 departure to ORD. Car dropped at Avis, painlessly and through security to wait. My recollection is that it was 737-700, packed to the gunwhales: there were people at the gate on standby, checking bags in to the hold, and the ubiquitous crewmembers deadheading.



The leg room was reducing.



I had pre-ordered breakfast on this sector: a cheese, egg and turkey flatbread sandwich.


It was horrid: dry and the contents were processed: the saving grace was that the scone was warm, fluffy and moist.

Our connection at ORD was around an hour. When we arrived and logged on to the wifi we found our flight was delayed.



The app also told us that our bags had been unloaded at ORD, so a good chance that they would make it to MSP.

Eventually our ride arrived.



The jet was put on an airbridge, but didn't quite fit.



So this little gangplank was added.



This flight was full as well: even had a deadheading pilot on the flightdeck jumpseat.

And the legroom reduced again.
