Oh, United Air…
June 26th, 2006Hello.
I expected to be writing this from Hawaii, but here I am in Washington, DC. Turns out, United can't keep their planes running. And I took it in the ass. They canceled my flight, and tons of people have gotten bumped throughout the day, so everyone was trying to fit on a precious few flights. After spending about an hour standing in various lines and getting screwed, the phone calls I made back to work paid off and we have confirmed tickets that we are now checked-in on for tomorrow morning. Welcome from Country Inn & Suites in Sterling, Virginia!
Tempers were a little thin in the airport, but we emerged unscathed at the other end, now with a Sam Adams at my side.
Amazing how long the lines are at the United customer service. I am SO SO SO glad that we have confirmed tickets for tomorrow, and are now relaxing at a hotel instead of standing in some fucking hellish line in the airport, while the precious few available hotels fill up (we lucked out finding a room here).
