Been at ORD since 12. Now 8PM. Flight got delayed again. My bag is on another flight, they told me I could get on the earlier 1, if I checked my bag, then didn’t have a seat for me. Do I give up yet?

Been trying to get back to EWR. My original flight still took off and my earlier flight crushed me

That’s the plan if I get delayed again

My limit is 6 hours domestically. Assume you know that the expense policies of all firms I’m aware of will cover the hotel tonight when things go south.

A checked bag will complicate things some if you can’t get it. Learn to pack to avoid checking bags.

Didn’t chose to check the bag, they took it at the gate for an earlier flight that they then took me off of when they realized no seats were left

They finally got me on the plane, been delayed another 2 times since a boarding hahah

My limit is two hours. My flight was delayed then cancelled. Checked by bag so I had to reclaim it and drive to a hotel

Got home at 3AM folks

H1 if your limit is two hours, you’ll be spending a lot of Thursday nights on the road when you could be home, even if late.

OP, sucks it was an ordeal but at least you slept in your own bed.

M/SM and above, why do you label a meeting as “touch point” or ask if you can have a “quick chat” when it’s something serious? Millennials like us always assume we’re about to get fired - I actually have been laid off in a meeting with that title. But at my new job, my boss asked for a “quick chat” to literally ask me to change the title of a meeting and then chat about christmas. Now that I’m in management, I want to understand it better.
