Guy next to me walked on the plane without scanning his boarding pass. They tried to give his seat to standby and it caused a big kerfuffle.

Looks like we’re about sixth in line to take off if you’re in queens somewhere placing bets

That's not too bad.  I have noon news on and they're talking about travel nightmares in airports and on the roads.

I hope you’re having a great flight home, Greg.  Thank you so much for the outstanding live review.  My DH is originally from Brooklyn and still has family there, so we go to NYC from time to time, but we have never been to many of the places you visited.  You made NYC come alive!  Thanks.

Yeah no telling how long he’s been here. I heard he was heading to the airport at 7:30. He may have been here a couple hours.

Probably nervous. Flights from LGA sometimes wind up in the Hudson river! 😁

 

Captain Sully!

Mets game was rained out today. Split Day/Night double header Wednesday. Hopefully you missed the last two games.  Thanks once again for taking us along on your trip! It was interesting to see you vacationing in my neck of the woods and getting on a ship that I just got off!! It is amazing how I have lived here all my life yet you found things that I did not even know existed!!

 

Safe travels home and thanks for another AWESOME review!

 

LGM!!!!

Wonder when/if they're gonna cut him off.  Hate being a PITA, but I can't find the Bermuda authorization thing.  Cruise is 9/24-do they send it later?  TIA

Karry, did you apply for the Bermuda travel Authorization?

I'm trying to do that now.  Problem is passport in Jersey-I'm at our camp in NY but son will get for me.  Says I have to upload vax proof which as a technically challenged person, I can't do!!!  Hope you are enjoying Boston.  I went to college at Endicott in Beverly.  Love Boston (but not their baseball team lol)

We always enjoy Boston, but not the Red Sox! 😁 Of course it's raining, with more of the same expected for Portland tomorrow. Can't catch a break! 😎

Safe travels, if you leave the ground.   Thanks for taking us proles along for the ride!!

I think one of the flight attendants broke wind during takeoff. One of them was laughing profusely and clearing the air immediately around him with a safety card. It sounded like they were having a “whoever smelt it dealt it” type of conversation. Two male flight attendants of course.

The guy who started the kerfuffle during boarding looked at me when the Oder first emanated. It was not me. The flight attendant did it.

I opted against all inflight purchases. I think I’ll hit In-n-out burger after I get back to my car.

Just south of Lexington, Kentucky one of the pilots emerged from the cockpit to pick up snacks and beverages.
 

 

[Saint Greg]

I dozed off for about 30 minutes and woke up between Nashville and Memphis. That’s how comfortable these seats are. I usually can’t sleep on planes. The last time I did was on an overnight flight to London. 
 

 

[Saint Greg]

We are going around some weather in Arkansas. The fasten seat belt sign is on and passengers have been asked to return to their seats. It’s less than an hour until landing so we should be descending soon.

 

 

 

[Saint Greg]

45 minutes until landing. Kerfuffle guy decides to utilize the lavatory but he’s struggling with the operation of his seatbelt. Finally he figures it out. This is the same guy who boarded without getting his boarding pass scanned. I hope he picked the right door when going to the lavatory. 
 

 

 

[Saint Greg]

I’ll give you a look at the big front seat while he’s out of his.

We are descending into DFW. I believe this flight was originally scheduled to land at 2:52. We’re going to be landing around 2:22
