It's the crap seat. Pinnacle is operating the flight. But it's still a short flight and I'm willing to put up with it for the extra time we'll have in Amsterdam as a result. With this routing we can enjoy our last night there, rather than having to head back to an airport hotel for a short night of rest before getting up really early for the flight to DTW.

not enough tell us about it some more :cool:

No, it could be worse. But those seats tend to give me a back and neck ache within 45 minutes of sitting in them. They seem to have an odd angle to the back of the seat that just doesn't fit me well.

I feel your pain — have been there, done it quite a few times. I'm already dreading dealing with that this Friday afternoon. More than once I've shelled out the $30 to take Amtrak if there was one of their trains coming soon, and it avoided a 30+ minute wait for NJT.

Looks like my DL flight tonight is prime for VDB'ing. Unfortunately the only flight that's later is just as sold out, and I have to travel tonight. Maybe I'll get lucky, though… Last time I was on DL and this happened they stuck me on the next flight, which was oversold too, and then just bumped people off it to get me the seat.

The :rolleyes:s keep coming. Plane went MX and now I'm stuck at DTW waiting for my NW flight back to LAS.

Did you have any checked bags?

Every airline has to endure the horrible taxiway logjams to some degree. My dislike of JFK has less roots in the operational and more in the logistical. I won't drive 3 hours to fly, or drive 3+ hours to come home from my flight. I'd sooner leave from EWR and connect somewhere in Europe. Yes, I know that we as a region in the Northeast Corridor are spoiled...if you think about it with all things considered, there are what, four international gateways in this region that are logical choices on some level?

I respectfully disagree.

Excellent.

I shall find out and post it to low budget aero porn.

But not near as big as the talking lips on DL's safety video.
What's up with that? First time I've seen it

Was assigned 1st crew break, think right after dinner. Not enough sleepers in the cabin :(
Did get crew shuttle bus to hotel and see crew lounge at Swiss Hotel

Ya Think

My neck is still ssore

Thanks for guesting me into JFK-25

,
Stayed at The place twice-nothing really special in my book. Have enjoyed several stays at the Saint Francis

:rolleyes:

Have a new co-worker who did that. Still able to fly but WTH

Really shocked to see\know that this is what DL\CPB wants travelers to have as their first impression of the US. What a dark, dank, abysmal place

Sounds like bad :rolleyes: 'karma' today for you!:confused::eek: Good luck with getting back to LAS tonight!

baglady's husband!^ Hope things keep going your way!

My netbook is now set up precisely how I want it to be (carried my back-up external drive with me on the airplane, as there was an easy 16 hours). Life is good.

We didn't yesterday. Didn't matter. Think about a hallway in the basement with about 500 people in two masses where the staff members can't maintain order, and that was before queuing up for passport control. And I did get through Passport Control before windwalker despite him being 5 rows in front of me on the aircraft.

When you walk around town, you don't turn that abruptly.

No prob - that's what FT is for. And less time in line would have allowed far more time to nosh and drink.

I told pvr500 that the configuration was frankly worse than IAD.

I get to go to that dump of an airport to pick someone up early Saturday morning because they didn't want to take a connection in SEA and rather fly in an empty 773 instead The $50 they are saving isn't much of a savings once they get done paying for my extra bridge tolls getting over to that dump.
