American Airlines is truly unbelievable. Tell us there was a mechanical issue that will take another 2 hours to fix (that they knew of at 10pm last night) after they already boarded us

Now we sit on the plane for 2 hours while they START to fix the problem at our scheduled departure time. FuckAA

@Op they all suck. Stuck on a delta flight that had some issue and we missed our window to get to LGA so waiting 30 mins, while the AA flight at the same time is almost there

DD1 delays are totally inevitable but with American it's not just that they are delayed every week, it's that they don't handle it properly. I've been delayed on Delta plenty of times but they often handle it so much better

I've never understood mechanicals on the first flight of the day when the plane sits all night. Totally preventable.

Does anyone have knowledge of the financial crimes practice in KPMG? I am interviewing for a position to move there from a current forensics position.

Online info is not that descriptive. Also, is the 80-100 percent travel really true or is a bit less?

Welcome to all my fellow travelers. Travel is a great way to open your eyes to the world we live in.
