I'll get into intro's later.
I woke up at 5 this morning to catch my 8:20 flight to Tokyo from Taipei only to find out that one of my flights were canceled and my new departure is actually 5 hours later. Lovely. Not only that, but I now have to fly from Tokyo to New York; spend a night there, then fly to Miami to catch a plane to Chicago. It makes so much sense,... right?
I just want to go home and play my guitar, and sleep on my bed, on my pillow.
//UPDATE
For those who have had situations like me. Be aware that there's the golden rule of flying. Rule 240.
Check your airline's contract. Most American airlines have stuck to that rule since the beginning of commercial flying.
Basically, Rule 240 states that when a passenger's flights cancel or delay, or connecting flights are missed due to the actions of the airline. The airline is required to get you to your destination around the time it was originally scheduled even if it means flying with another airline. It does not include flight delays or cancellations that result from inclement weather or other factors that are outside of an airline's control.
In Tokyo, I whipped out a Rule 240 and I ended up with a Business Class upgrade on a flight to New York.
And it was awesome. The seats actually reclined all the way and formed a bed. I ate gourmet sushi, and the wine was free (not that I drank any). They even had liquor I've only heard from old rap music.
This was the first flight I actually felt comfortable in. Wow. I actually enjoyed flying this time.Too bad normally international business is a $5000 upgrade from economy...
