Bagless

in: me

I had a very weird airplane experience yesterday. The morning before my trip, someone called me and told me that I was being bumped to a 4:00 flight. Then when I arrived at Logan airport, I was put on my original 2:00 flight, I had to run to reach the gate. I was the last person on the plane, and they took away my carry-on bag since there was no overhead space. I had a very bad feeling about this, and I should have given into my first instinct, which was to open up that bag and take out a few items. Now, my bag is gone and the tracking number I was given for that bag doesn’t seem to work. I’m more than a little miffed, because I had the save the dates for my wedding in that bag (which I was hoping to mail while I was on vacation) as well as my precious DVDs of Ong Bak and Kung Fu Hustle. The clothes I can live with losing, but it will be a bummer if I have to reorder my save the dates again. I really wanted to send them out soon, just to give people warning that they might have to plan a trip to the midwest next summer.

    What?! Losing a Tony Jaa AND Stephen Chow DVD at the same time? Isn’t that some sort of federal offense? Airlines go bankrupt because of such baggage handling.

    I finally got the bag! The DVDs are back, and I think the airline is already going bankrupt :)

    It has been my experience at SLC that if a bag isn’t delivered promptly, it’s a 72 hour wait. Happened both times that a party best known as “GA” visited another party best known as “AJ” in SLC.
