It was nice how everything worked out on Saturday, especially considering that
StephM was not even supposed to be in ORD at that time. I was flying PDX->SFO->ORD->PHL and planned to be on the 6:00PM PHL flight and she was flying YVR->ORD->PHL and planned to be on the 4:00PM PHL flight. However, the 8:59AM YVR to ORD flight has been delayed (due to crew) three out of the last four days and she misconnected in ORD. I was
very surprised to see her waiting for me as I exited the jetway from my SFO flight. Fortunately, she was able to snag the last F seat on my flight and swap with my seat mate so we could sit together.
