Wow. The night of the Sully LGA miracle, there were 2 MCI-LGA Midwest Express flights delayed and eventually took off about 10 minutes apart.
The first was packed and I was on the second with 2 other passengers and 3 FA's.
Tons of chocolate chip cookies abound, they even gave me some to take home.
Flying up the Hudson for the approach, I could clearly see the Airbus lit up & tied up to the shore in lower Manhattan.
