This is a bit chinsey, but on my return flight from Detroit to SAN (NW metal on CO web purchase)on 1/4, the plane left Detroit after being de-iced, and shortly thereafter, the pilot, announced that he had a landing gear problem and that he has to fly around to burn off 44,000 of fuel in order to make landing the plane possible. So we flew around a while and landed in Minneapolis amongst the waiting fire trucks to change planes. I guess NW repair facility is in MN. I got home 6 hours late-- but all in one piece.
Will CO ever credit me with the extra segment or the extra 500 miles, or is it to chinsey to bother with???? And will CO ever slap the lady behind me who saw the fire trucks and thought we were all going to die???
