Is lousy!
Wanted to attend a memorial services for a long time friend's wife who passed suddenly.
Had reservations on United to fly from Chicago O'Hare (ORD) to Jacksonville FL (JAX) early on Saturday morning (7:15am). Checked in early on Friday morning. On a whim Friday at 10:30pm I decided to update my iPad app so I could watch a movie on the flight. App updates and tells me the flight was cancelled... no email.. no communication. After an hour on the phone I was rescheduled on American Airlines thru Charlotte (CLT) but for a 5:30 am flight. So after a brief 2.5 hour nap I am on my way...
Get to JAX and head to the Hertz counter. I am a Hertz Gold Club member... Everyone else has a folder in the rack waiting. For me? Nothing. They have to look up my reservation and they do not have car ready for me. I end up in a "monster truck" new Suburban..
Successfully make it to the memorial. It was worth the effort!
On Sunday I go to check in for my return flight... and it was cancelled. Another hour on the phone with United and I am switched to another American Airlines flight. Screwed up my Monday work plans but finally made it home....
