Travel woes...per usual

Well, flew back to the ATL this past weekend for another wedding. As of late, air travel and me are not on the best of terms. I flew to Atlanta last month for a wedding and was held in LGA for an hour and a half before finally taking off. This trip was unfortunatly no different.
I was supposed to leave Thursday at 7pm. That afternoon I checked the flight online and apparently it was already delayed until 8:10pm....and this was at 3 in the afternoon. So i arrived and boarded the plane and then we pulled away at 8:20pm. Then the captain said we would be number 25 in line for takeoff so it would probably be another 45 min sitting in the plane. 40 min go by and we get out of line because they apparently "closed down" our departure route. So we ended up back in a different line. Another 45 min on the plane ticks by and the captain said they opened up another route and we were "gonna make a break for it". This time 3rd in line. So instead of a scheduled 7pm departure we end up "wheels up" at 10:01pm. (30 mins after the scheduled arrival time into ATL)

So on the flight home i was crossing my fingers for a smooth experience. Decided to skip my scheduled 11:30am flight and opted to standby with Bebe on the 3pm flight. Big mistake. (Aside from spending time with her of course) Long story short (too late, i know) sat in the airport until they let us take off at 6:30pm (3 hours late) and then circled Baltimore for additional two hours in the plane in a holding pattern until we either ran out of fuel and had to abort to Philly to fill up or shoot the gap and sneak in between the bad storms in NYC. We touched down a little after 10pm. Sucked.

Don't even get me started about the hour cab line and re-routing our drive from the airport through bad Queens and the Midtown tunnel.

No mas for me with the whole air travel thing. (Unless of course it is to get out of the country:)
