Delta deliberately makes the boarding times on their boarding passes 10 minutes ahead of what it's actually going to be. Or is it just in my head?

And AA does the opposite, often boarding before time on the boarding pass.

They usually start on time, but for "extra time or assistance" followed by "families traveling with car seats or strollers." So by the time they've made it to PREM 10 minutes has passed

I think delta closes doors 15 min before takeoff vs AA 10 min before takeoff in my experience

I've also missed 1 and almost missed another delta flight because they moved up the flight time.....

At my uncles wedding in Madrid I remember lying down on the grass in the courtyard after their first dance and crying, my Dad came and saw me, laid down in his suit beside me and asked what was wrong.

“I know my boyfriend wouldn’t dance with me like that at our wedding”

And we just lay there as I cried, and then got up. Had a drink.

Said boyfriend left years ago, and now I have a wonderful man who just asked me what type of dance lessons I want for our wedding next year.

Don’t give up.
