oldwomanc6 60 #2 February 5, 2015 I hope you make your flight. Maybe they'll hold the connecting flight for you. lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BillyVance 35 #3 February 5, 2015 oldwomanc6 I hope you make your flight. Maybe they'll hold the connecting flight for you. United Airlines did that for my wife and I coming back from Maui to SFO late one night. Our connecting flight was supposed to leave the gate 15 minutes before we arrived. They waited for us.

wmw999 2,587 #7 February 5, 2015 I ran and made it. Late enough that there was only one person in the jetway boarding still, and they'd given up announcing for me. Unfortunately my suitcase doesn't have the power wheels option, so it didn't. But my rig is in the carry on, so I'm just missing my clothing, and the airline said they'd deliver it.

Sounds like the Acapulco boogie for Vskydiver and me. Ran for the plane in LAX and just barely made it. All our gear but had to buy toothbrushes. . . Have a great time down in CR. We went to a boogie at Playa Tambour back there in '96. Loved the wildlife, especially the birds everywhere. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JohnMitchell 16 #12 February 6, 2015 BIGUN Doesn't really feel like 19 years ago when you're talking about it... does it? Tempus fugit, eh? Yeah, that still ranks as our favorite boogie of all time. The stars aligned for a darn near perfect trip. Did you make it down for one of the weeks on that one? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
