Anyone else get their flight cancelled?

My United flight from Houston to Denver tomorrow morning got canceled because it was slotted to be a 737 max 9, which United thought was safe enough to fly me on the way here, but now it’s not. Their new plan was to send me from Houston to fucking Charlotte, then to Denver, then to Spokane. I politely told them to fuck off and refund me. Now I get to wake up at 2 tomorrow morning to catch an early southwest flight. Fuck my life.

    Sounds like fun. Ginger and I are about to catch our connector to ATL and the drive home. Super excited to go back to work tomorrow considering I feel like my dawg died and it’s written all over my face. Any fucking ways, take some Benadryl and go to bed.

    5:30am flight out this morning. Made it home with no delays only to promptly lose power, deal with flooding in my yard, and cancel all my afternoon meetings.

    Our flight out from Dallas today was fine. Waiting in Denver now. Half hour delayed but we’ll see if it actually gets off.

    Lots of Silver Bullet bars here to pass the time but I’m kinda warm out on 20 dollar beers right now.

    I thought about that, and if I hadn’t found a flight for about the same price as my refund from united, I would have considered it.

    That fucking sucks. Through Charlotte? Jesus Christ.

    I got lucky, had United 787s in both directions. 45 mins late today between the wind in Houston, slow baggage loading, some maintenance inspection and the east coast weather. With the ground stops in the east (I saw for ATL, Charlotte and JFK) and the Max 9 groundings seemed like a mess if you get caught in any disruption.

    Traveling in general is a total nightmare. Still stuck in Dallas waiting for a connecting flight to get passengers. Now need a small maintenance item. Gonna miss my connection now. Will have to fly home the next morning. Gut punch

    TOF sends me this video asking me what to do. “Don’t let the kids play in the backyard.”


    Your kids must be soft. That situation screams for a pickup soccer game.

    to be fair, falling out of the sky with an airline door plug and landing near the Nike HQ in Beaverton sounds like a raw deal after a Natty loss.

    No but they overbooked mine. They were begging people to take a flight tomorrow, so much so they gave away multiple 2k american express gift cards. Wish I could have taken it.

    Why wouldn’t you have taken 2k in cash? You’re in college, you have nowhere to be

    Yeah, the previous owners did a bang up job with an installing a drainage system. I don’t give a fuck because I’m looking for my next promotion and this will become a rental.

    @chuck Say that to their face. They’d fuck you up for fun and then piss on you before they walked off leaving you covered in your own blood and their piss. Heathens I tell you, heathens.
