Today I’m booked to fly DFW-MCI-PHL-AMS-LCY in saver J.
At MCI I was just getting ready to board when they announced a flight attendant called in sick so the now late scheduled mci-phl flight will get me in within 10 minutes of my ams flight.
I had the agent book me mci-ord-lhr. I got to shave off a leg, get in two hours earlier and be on a 789 vs the 763 dinosaur I was originally scheduled on.
