    Smooth ride to TheParkingSpot at CLT. Used to use this parking area when I worked at AAA except it was cheaper then. :). Bags checked - breezed thru TSA. Janet hauled aside because of plate in her wrist. Once thru, stopped by s sandwich spot snd split a Cubano. Actually pretty good. Should be for $13! Flight has been pushed back till 8:40 pm. Downloaded 3 or 4 episodes of Slow Horses (Apple TV+) and have some audible books to entertain my sleepy brain after dinner. I hear thunder. Looks like we'll be taking off in the rain. After that awful Air India crash, I just want to hear the satisfying clunk of that landing gear retracting. Last minute note - boarding process is one giant mess. Have to take a photo of each passenger boarding and now the camera broke Not a good omen. Have never seen this procedure before. https://g.co/gemini/share/eede93f9747b. Latest update. Our 8:10 pm scheduled departure is now pushed back to midnight. Lovely. Water leak on plane supposedly. Update - at midnight they declare our plane out of service and send us from gate D10 all the way to B12. Now 00:12 and hoping to board. Captain and crew just showed up to rousing cheers!! News Flash - the cleaning crew is working hard, but just heard there will be no food service on this flight - at all - nada-zip. Not even peanuts. Whoops - another update! This Plane isn't going out either!! We are screwed. Waiting to find out what happens next.Read more
