6 Days in. An Accounting of sorts.
I am home for a few hours before I fly to Montreal on AC 182.
While I can't do full post (come back tommorow) I will give everyone a brief rundown on how things are progressing.
1) Since the 1st of Oct I have flown on 41 flights.
2) Roughly translated into 40,000 miles flown.
3) 40,000 miles translates into 120,000 including all bonus/promotions.
4) I have lost 3.5 lbs since starting. AC's breakfast is doing me in! Ack...
5) I gave a 15 minute phone interview to the Canadian Press this afternoon.
6) I now know many of the Maple Leaf Lounge Agents names by heart.
Some of their kids and grandkids too. :)
When is a delay not a delay?
When you confine your travel to all one aircraft. Despite poor weather on the West Coast, yesterday was a success. I had to cancel my first flight due to on going delays. I decided the only way to salvage the day was to find out what a particular crew and aircraft were scheduled to fly, then stick with them. My flights were "delayed - with respect to scheduled times", but as I stuck with the plane I was laughing all the way to the (mileage) bank :)
Special thanks to Jazz FA Linda.
