US Airways owes me a day... at least

It is best to keep this here short. The day was too long as it is. The plane for the flight to Charlotte had a mechanical problem and therefore a delay of more than an hour. Which meant I was going to miss my connection. US Airways staff was extremely unfriendly and as I was approaching the desk, the gate agent yelled at me: "do not approach us, go back to the waiting area NOW and let us do our job!" Hmm, I hadn't even asked my question yet and never got to ask it later either. After calling connection destinations in what seemed to be alphabetical order to come approach the desk, the flight was ready to board before they got to M as in Myrtle Beach and I just hoped they would have a connection for me...

No real food on this 3h flight, guessed that would be the case and thus had already picked up a salad for lunch while waiting for the flight. I did make the next connection, but my golf bag didn't. Arrgh, I hate waiting for my luggage and then not get it. Baggage services here do not call international numbers, so, I was given a number to call to leave my condo's number once I got it and also given a promise that my bag would be delivered today.

Wishful thinking! Finally at at 23:15, delivery called and said, they would deliver my clubs within an hour. So I waited up... (cont'd tomorrow :))
