We had a flight similar to this on British Airways, where the only difference was that the accents of the flight attendants at least made them sound polite. A two-year old sitting in front of us cried the whole way back. He fell asleep as we made our approach to BWI. Oh -- and my luggage came back three weeks later!KathyAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12723937251892708482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23683658.post-5024554161875274662011-09-08T12:43:11.315-04:002011-09-08T12:43:11.315-04:00"who immediately slammed her seat back"

Glad you made it home safe and sound.<br /><br />But my tip....always use a travel agent....there is a 24 hr 800# to fix the problems you had in mere minutes and no running from kiosk to counter to luftansa to UA. Travel is tough enough without that stuff!! And just an FYI...during 9/11 the only people who couldn't get flights home or rearranged were those that booked travel online and not through an agent...FACT. and no I am not a travel agent. :-)Margaret (Peggy or Peg too)https://www.blogger.com/profile/04247428494327269983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23683658.post-29022116981770554282011-09-08T09:07:57.073-04:002011-09-08T09:07:57.073-04:00Well, I'm glad the actual time in

Immigration and Customs agents are trained to be that way, and now we have TSA!<br /><br />I'm glad you are back.

The old lady sitting in front of us immediately stood up, turned around, and told us we should put the baby in an overhead bin because she had "such a terrible headache." She was dead serious. Which prompted the old lady behind us to start yelling at the old lady in front of us that she was a "terrible, terrible person" and how could she suggest such a thing?!? I just laughed and laughed.
