…so funny story. The second plane we were on sat on the tarmac for 80 mins with the engine cover open while they “finished inspections”. After an hour and 20 mins sitting in our seats we got were notified that this second aircraft was also not airworthy and we were being re-booked a third time. My wife has terrible flight anxiety as it is and burst into tears, so after deplaning a second time I asked the gate agent to get us our checked bags because I was going to rent a car and drive from Vegas to Anaheim rather than deal with any more nonsense. I was told that wasn’t possible and the best they could do is have me call the 800 number and ask to have my bags shipped to the hotel “at some point”. Faced with no real alternative since the majority of our clothes and travel stuff were in the checked luggage, we waited two more hours and finally boarded a third flight that got here in Anaheim about 10:00pm.
Grateful to be here safely but not thrilled with the experience to say the least.
