Detroit - Automakers & Artists

Quick trip through security thanks to Precheck and we arrived at our gate. I think the only other times I’ve boarded from a C gate was for overseas flights that did not go well :

Iceland Air 2022 - plane was held up in Boston but they kept telling us it was a slight delay … about every 20-30 minutes they announced another delay. Play Air was boarding at the next gate and scheduled to depart an hour after our Iceland Air flight. The Play flight was not full. As soon as the Play boarded and closed the gate, Iceland Air cancelled our flight. Truly believe they knew it would be cancelled but delayed announcement so people would not rightfully request Iceland Air rebook them on Play.

Try booking a hotel in summer by BWI at 1155pm! We ended up staying in a dump (web page looked decent but nasty room) . That was after initially reserving a nice hotel only to have their site charge my card then, when we called for their shuttle, were told they don’t have room at the Inn. Took a credit card charge back to get my money back.

We got rebooked the next day but did not get the business class experience we paid for. Arrived almost 2 days after originally scheduled, lost 2 days sightseeing, almost lost a train reservation. So glad we had insurance to cover unexpected hotel, missed hotel reservations and missed boat reservation.

Other experience in terminal C was the last year US Airways operated before “merging” with American- 2015. My direct flight to Amsterdam was delayed due fog. They rebooked me BWI-PHL-LHR-AMS. Barely made the PHL flight (literally running through terminals) then sat more than 6 hours in LHR before arriving AMS in pitch black. Lost use of Museum tickets & arrived at my hotel just before midnight.

Hope tonight breaks the Curse of terminal C!
