Been there, done that. With the right crowd it can be a lot of fun. Or it can be kindof skeezy watching burnt out old hippie guys hitting on underage girls by getting them drunk and high.

Tailgating for Hank Williams Jr and Charlie Daniels wasn't so bad either.

Wonder if SEA is in my future

CO could make me happy and just leave me here

They have a 2 hour delay posted. What's the issue?
You can ask to be taken off the flight and rebooked for tomorrow if you feel uncomfortable about flying. I have people do it all the time and I don't question their fear and just rebook them.

Just checked the ANA tool and 2 seats opened up on the earlier FRA-CAI flight. It is an LH 346 instead of an MS 330. Problem is that it means a ~5 hour layover in CAI instead of 2:30 in CAI. I think we're better off taking that time in FRA. I might do the airport tour again. :D

I got a couple recommendations from friends and family but I haven't vetted them at all.

I'm in the same boat, I haven't had time to make plans beyond hotels and a cooking class my wife and I are going to take. I'll take a look later this week and maybe we can all find a place to meet up.

Are you on the direct DL flights both ways?

Well, my wife and I just found the house we're going to put an offer in on. :D
