Leaving on a Jet Plane

 

MCO - Orlando International Airport

Today we are flying to London from Orlando.  The first leg of our trip is Orlando to Newark (another messed up airport). We will see how it goes. We have 1 1/2 hours between flights, we are manifesting that it all goes well.

First minor hiccup, I broke Robin's suitcase handle. At curbside, I pulled up the handle on her carry-on and the handle broke off. Shot happens!. Rob and Robin off to buy a new carry-on and repack her suitcase. We have plenty of time!

They did not buy a new bag. Green duct tape to the rescue!

Waiting at gate. 

On board Flight 1190. Making progress.

 Landed in Newark 1/2 hour early.  Plenty of time to get the flight to London, UA Flight 14.

We finally made it! A little issue with Elly's gluten free meals (none were to be had). As compensation we are getting "miles' added to our account.  Now if we can get our bodies to think that it's 7am instead of 2am!
