AIRPORT FIASCO
Dec. 22nd, 2008 07:07 pmThis is turning out to be the most nightmarish weekend/week I've had in a long, long time! Olivia's flight was supposed to leave Vancouver at 4:30 PM yesterday (Pacific Time) and be in Toronto just before midnight (EST). Ed and I planned to leave here around 11 PM to go and pick her up. But they had had some heavy snow in Vancouver (unusual for them), which caused a delay. And our snow here didn't help the situation either. We had more yesterday morning, but it stopped by noon and we haven't had any more since then. Aren't expecting any either.
But both storms (there and here) screwed up all the flights to and from the west coast. And when I booked Olivia's flight back in October, most Vancouver-Toronto flights for this time of year were already full. So I can imagine the number of people that have been affected by this.

EDIT: Well, Olivia just called and it seems the flight got cancelled altogether. She has booked a new one, which leaves Vancouver at midnight tomorrow and should arrive in Toronto at 6:00 AM on the 24th! Let's just hope that after all this bullshit she arrives safely!
