An Early Start
3 марта 2019 г., Соединенные Штаты ⋅ ⛅ 36 °F
It's time for more traveling and we're going to Las Vegas! We were picked up by an Uber driver 3 minutes after we put in for the ride. They work so quickly! We decided to use a car service this timeЧитать далее
Terminal B
3 марта 2019 г., Соединенные Штаты ⋅ ⛅ 37 °F
Since there was no traffic, we made it to the airport very quickly. We haven't been to LaGuardia in a while and the construction seems to be in full swing. We made it through it all quickly, sinceЧитать далее
Checking In
3 марта 2019 г., Соединенные Штаты ⋅ ⛅ 37 °F
This is our first time flying with Southwest and my first impression leaves me less than impressed. We waited on to check in for our flight and when we got there all we did was check in using theЧитать далее
TSA
3 марта 2019 г., Соединенные Штаты ⋅ ⛅ 37 °F
We were surprised by how crowded and busy the TSA security check area was. Thankfully, the lines moved much faster than we expected and we got through the lines quickly.
Pulled
3 марта 2019 г., Соединенные Штаты ⋅ ⛅ 37 °F
Kathy was pulled from the line and needed to have her bag rechecked because she forgot to take her tablet out of her bag. After a rescan on the x-ray machine she was good to go. While I was waitingЧитать далее
The New LGA
3 марта 2019 г., Соединенные Штаты ⋅ ⛅ 37 °F
It was nice seeing all the progress at LaGuardia. This place has come so far from the way it used to be. Once all of the construction is finally done, this place is going to be amazing!
Gate 56
3 марта 2019 г., Соединенные Штаты ⋅ ⛅ 37 °F
We made it to the gate with plenty of time to spare and now we're just waiting to leave. Our flight is scheduled for an 8:00 am departure so we've got lots of time.
Big Bottom
3 марта 2019 г., Соединенные Штаты ⋅ ⛅ 37 °F
With nothing else to do, we're just relaxing and people watching. Kathy noticed this woman and pointed her out to me. That's so big that it doesn't even look real. It's as if she has a pillow stuffedЧитать далее
Sunrise
3 марта 2019 г., Соединенные Штаты ⋅ ⛅ 37 °F
The sun is coming up and the day is starting. We've still got a while until we leave though. The time is passing by so slowly.
Still Waiting
3 марта 2019 г., Соединенные Штаты ⋅ ⛅ 37 °F
We're not flying on Air Canada but that just happened to be the plane parked near our window. I guess that it's so early that our plane isn't even at the gate yet. A little less than two hours untilЧитать далее
Southwest Airlines
3 марта 2019 г., Соединенные Штаты ⋅ ⛅ 37 °F
Kathy was telling me that Southwest Airlines doesn't have assigned seats on their flights. I've never heard of a system like this but I don't think that I like it. I'm hoping that we can get two seatsЧитать далее
Ready to Board
3 марта 2019 г., Соединенные Штаты ⋅ ⛅ 37 °F
Southwest Airlines has the most bizarre boarding process. People have to line up according to a letter designation and, then, the line is further split up into numbered groups. I was A50 meaning that,Читать далее
Selfie Time
3 марта 2019 г., Соединенные Штаты ⋅ ⛅ 37 °F
Here's Kathy and I waiting for our turn to board. We're so eager to get to Las Vegas!
We're Seated
3 марта 2019 г., Соединенные Штаты ⋅ ⛅ 37 °F
Once you're allowed to get on the plane, your free to grab whatever seat that you want. We were lucky enough to get two seats together, plus room in the overhead bin for our bags, but I'm guessingЧитать далее
And We're Away!
3 марта 2019 г., Соединенные Штаты ⋅ ⛅ 37 °F
I'm surprised that we took off so quickly. It seemed that as soon as the plane was fully boarded and everyone was seated it was time to go. I have to say, I do like Southwest's efficiency. DespiteЧитать далее
Snack Time
3 марта 2019 г., Соединенные Штаты ⋅ ☁️ 27 °F
We're somewhere over Pennsylvania and that means it's snack time here on Southwest. We were given Plane Cookies, which I hope aren't too plain, and pretzels, just "because they like us". I think thatЧитать далее
Enjoying the Flight
3 марта 2019 г., Соединенные Штаты ⋅ ☁️ 30 °F
We're having a good time on the flight so far. The captain just announced that me may be getting to Dallas a bit early due to the weather. I guess that means we have a good tailwind behind us. I hopeЧитать далее
So Sleepy
3 марта 2019 г., Соединенные Штаты ⋅ ❄️ 32 °F
Waking up so early this morning is starting to catch up with us. We're both so tired but it's always very difficult to sleep while sitting up in an airplane seat. I'm surprised that Southwest doesn'tЧитать далее
Everything is Southwest
3 марта 2019 г., Соединенные Штаты ⋅ ⛅ 34 °F
Dallas certainly seems to be Southwest country because that's the only airline I've seen at this airport. Could this be an airport designed by, and for, Southwest Airlines only? I've never heard ofЧитать далее
We're in Dallas!
3 марта 2019 г., Соединенные Штаты ⋅ ⛅ 34 °F
This is my first look at Dallas and, unfortunately, I'm not very impressed. In all fairness though, we only had time to see one small section that was, essentially, a food court like I'd find in aЧитать далее
Welcome to Moe's!
3 марта 2019 г., Соединенные Штаты ⋅ ☁️ 34 °F
After quickly looking over all the possibilities for a meal, Moe's seemed to be the best choice for us. All the rest were either too crowded or we just couldn't eat what they were selling. We decidedЧитать далее
Queued Up
3 марта 2019 г., Соединенные Штаты ⋅ ☁️ 34 °F
Since we've done it before, we knew exactly where to line up when it was time to start boarding. I still think that it's a strange and confusing system though. At least this is the last time we haveЧитать далее
Shut Up, Sit Down!
3 марта 2019 г., Соединенные Штаты ⋅ ☁️ 34 °F
We're back on Southwest Airlines, this time going from Dallas to Las Vegas. I was starting to think that maybe I was a bit hasty in my judgement and that Southwest wasn't so bad but, while theЧитать далее
Up in the Air
3 марта 2019 г., Соединенные Штаты ⋅ ⛅ 25 °F
I'm starting to see what looks like snow. We must be up in the mountains to be seeing snow now. All I know is, every mile is taking us closer to Las Vegas. I'm feeling so hungry and tired. I hope thatЧитать далее
Almost There!
3 марта 2019 г., Соединенные Штаты ⋅ ⛅ 48 °F
The captain just announced that we're making our final descent into Las Vegas but I don't see anything out the window. Just mountains and lots of empty land. I'm so happy that we're nearly there! MyЧитать далее
