My husband and I were flying for a nice relaxing vacation. For the first time in 8 years, we left our child at home with family. We get into the plane and directly in front of us is a woman with 5 children. She was sitting in a row that had 3 seats. The aisle […]

I travel quite a bit and normal delays really are just part of travel. But when I am flying on business I need my photo gear to shoot the job. I arrive early to get through TSA and wait by the gate, as the airline has computer check in and if you check in 24 […]

On a flight from Miami returning to the UK on new years eve 2005 (arriving in the UK in 2006) we had a lovely time…. The first problems were the reclining seats. The passengers in front of us had their seats pushed all the way back. Fine, that’s what they are for. So, we all […]

I made a mistake of taking a red eye flight. Everyone was rude. One lady’s kid had taken my reserved seat and she told me I would have to find somewhere to sit. I called over to the flight attendant and she made the kid move. I thought the lady was going to let me […]

I was travelling between Louisville and Chicago – left Louisville on an early morning flight. There was a huge thunderstorm between the two cities. As we got close to Chicago, the turbulence was horrible. I really thought this was it – that we were all goners. The pilot had the flight attendants and passengers remain […]

I fly frequently coast to coast with my job, as a Computer Network Coordinator, so flying is no problem with me. I know to allow a lot of time for delays or whatever during the flight. My husband, although he was in the Air Force, does not like to fly…go figure. Anyhow, we were going […]
