Every flight was delayed from 15 minutes to several hours. The worst were the situations where we boarded on time, then sat for two hours before getting in line for takeoff. And we were inevitably "20th in line for takeoff."Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15012726403002805505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20083102.post-1150804748801188492006-06-20T06:59:00.000-05:002006-06-20T06:59:00.000-05:00Avoid Denver in the fall and winter, the weather w...Avoid <B>Denver</B> in the fall and winter, the weather will eventually leave you stranded. The same with <B>Chicago</B>, the winter weather is lethal. And american/US airlines no longer care whether you have a place to sleep, even with a business class ticket. I also avoid late night connections into <B>Dallas</B> (say JFK-DFW-AUS) as the inbound flights are late and being on the last flight out is a risky proposition. In Europe, my entire team avoids <B>CDG/Paris</B>. <B>Stockholm, Helsinki</B> and <B>Munich</B> are very nice to fly through. American Airlines connections out of <B>Zurich</B> or <B>Frankfurt</B> have excessive security, so a short connection is to be avoid.DJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12593012781521577776noreply@blogger.com
