Good luck to everyone still stuck! I managed to make it home last night on day 3 of trying after a 20 hour Tuesday effort. The most miserable travel experience I’ve ever had as someone who flies about 4 legs each month. We spent pre-Christmas with my wife’s family 1500 miles away and experienced SW cancel our original flight as we sat on the airplane and then 7 flights in a row back to our hometown, every rental car within a 150 mile radius booked, and every other flight on other airlines that landed within a 5 hr drive of home booked until Saturday. Even looked into renting a uhaul for the 23 hr drive back. Just a truly helpless feeling, literally stuck in the Midwest. I briefly considered the 39 hour grayhound bus trip as the southwest situation seemed to keep getting worse instead of better as Tuesday wore on.
But enough of the doom & gloom, time to prep for the Fiesta Bowl weekend! Go frogs!
