Haven't been in San Jose Airport for almost twenty years and already it's my new favorite airport, period.

I had to show my passport/boarding pass to no less than 5 people to board my flight at LHR...yet somehow it was a very efficient, respectful process that didn't make me feel like crying.

i get to Nashville almost 2 hours late for my connecting flight because of bad weather in Philly, and the next flight i can get is (gasp) at 5:35 pm, meaning i would get into Oakand at 11 pm, and so i just went calmly and politely to the service desk and asked whether there was any way i could get to any airport in the Bay Area before 9 pm....and lo, the woman said, "this flight to my left is going to Denver, and then to San Francisco," and within 5 minutes i was on a moving plane. i tell ya, sometimes shit really works out okay! i'm now in my favorite airport in the US, drinking beer and smoking cigarettes, and molesting this free wi-fi.

Having arrived in San Jose when I did, I then immediately left for Monterey and Carmel.

Long beach is officially the shittiest airport I've ever set foot in.
I think there is about 500 ft btw security and the exit, with a gate in between!

At Heathrow heading for St Petersburg via Helsinki. Temptation to try and sneak on to a flight to Miami instead is enormous.

my chauffeur boyfriend dropped me off several hours early, and jetblue won't let me check my bag until 7 (it's 4:30 now). wondering if it's a security measure or if they just don't want to run the risk of losing the bag. either way, i'm sitting in the waiting area, lamenting the lack of outlets.
― the kids of boris midney high (get bent), Thursday, 22 March 2012 23:33 (twelve years ago) link

Flying Southwest for the first time ever. Slightly worried, since my seat numbering thing is a fairly high number on the second tier and I dont sit well in the bitch seat.
Fortunately, I loaded up on Batmang at the library on the way here, so's I got enough to read on the way to Denver.

Man, sitting around for a few hours at Santa Ana/John Wayne was posh bad weirdness. Surrounded by Orange County types. No wonder PKD wrote disparagingly of that place.

I think NECN just interviewed me on camera about electronic use on takeoffs/landings. I guess the Port Authority of NY is going to start fining people, so a reporter & a camera guy are here getting the vox pop.
