Tampa International Airport

Almost 5 hours prior to my flight, Southwest Airlines started issuing significant flight delays.

My scheduled agenda was four flights: Tampa to Atlanta, where I was to meet my sister. Then Newark, Lisbon, and finally Porto, arriving tomorrow morning.

With the delay, I wasn't going to make it to Atlanta in time to get my baggage and get to the United Airlines flight to Newark.

So, while riding in my pre-scheduled ride to the airport, I scrambled to book a flight directly to Newark. $288 later and $40 more to check my 49.5 pound suitcase, I'm here at the airport 4 hours before my flight.

P.F. Changs's bloody Mary is not too shabby. Here's to no more delays and smooth travels.

See ya in Newark, Donna!Okumaya devam et
