Flight 58
It seems to be that whenever I fly alone something goes wrong. Last summer I was held up at the airport for 8 hours due to a mechanical deffect on the plane. This year however it was'nt a mechanical problem that held me up it was rain storms. The airline told all of the passengers of my flight (after we were on the plane) that we would have to wait until we could find a different route so we could bypass the storms in the Carolinas. So we ended up waiting two hours on the plane while they were looking for a safer route to take. The route they choose took us out and around up state New York. We then continued down toward Florida. By the time we reached the Carolinas the storm had moved farther inland. So once again we had to change our course. Now we were traveling right on the coast of the two states. Now when we came to Florida it just so happened that Florida was having some severe weather as well and we could not land in Orlando from the direction we were coming. So we flew past Orlando turned around and flew back up to Orlando to land. Once we landed I thanked God that I was finally out of that plane. A flight that usually takes two and a half hours took us four and a half hours. So I was very thankful to be out of the air and on the ground. So for the next time I travel I think I might try a different means of transportation.
