Well, it looks like this posting will not be from the USA! I am now in my 10th hour at the Hong Kong Airport!! After periodic updates for close to 3 hours from United Airlines that the flight was only 30 minutes delayed, then 30 more, then 30 more, the flight was officially canceled. It was to leave at 11:40 AM. At 3:00 PM, United cancelled the flight and re-scheduled it for 6:30 PM TOMORROW night. And even at that, they informed us the time was subject to change. I was able to get on a flight out of Hong Kong at 11:00 PM tonight (it is now 7:00 PM, Saturday) on Singapore Airlines. The flight is to San Francisco, with a connecting flight on United at 10:30 PM on Saturday night, I know it is confusing with the time change. Rather than getting to Boston on Saturday night at 11:00 PM, I get to Boston early Sunday morning, hopefully!! Hong Kong is a beautiful city, but an airport is an airport, and it is getting tedious sitting here, now into my 11th hour!
Can you believe it? Every connection and flight I have taken for the last 5 and a half months has been on time with no hiccups. Now the very last leg of my journey, a major delay. Just another 3 hours before the boarding process begins...
If all goes according to the new schedule...the next posting will be from the USA!
