Have you ever gotten stuck at an aiport? I was recently stuck at the Atlanta airport for 22 hours. No joke....22 hours. My flight was scheduled for 10:40pm, and I missed my flight. The next flight was at 7:30am so I was thinking about getting a hotel room close to the airport. The Delta rep told me that I need to wait in line to try to reschedule my flight. No joke again, I waited in a line of at least 65 people, and I sat in line from 11pm to 1:30am in a single line. I couldn't believe it. I was in line for over 2.5 hours! Yikes. I was so exhausted and sleepy by the time I got to the front of the line. When I got to the front, the Delta rep simply told me she couldn't do anything for me......she said I needed to go to a different line. I was so angry, but too tired to show it.
I waited in another line for 45 minutes, and it was well past 2am now. Finally, the new rep told me that she couldn't do anything for me until 7am. By now, I was so exhausted that I laid my luggage in a corner and fell asleep on a chair in the airport. I woke up, and I saw hundreds of people roaming into the airport. I got up quickly and stood in line again. I spoke with a rep and she said there were no flights to Seattle for 3 days. I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Finally, I asked to speak with a manager and the manager was able to get me on a flight at 8pm. I waited all day, and I finally got on the last flight to Seattle. The Seattle flight that I was scheduled on was delayed. I left Atlanta around 9pm. Wow, almost 24 hours at the airport. It was no fun, but the coach seat never felt so good.
WOW... !!
