Sunday, November 21, 2010

Didn't think I'd be writing a blog today but since we are stuck at the Honolulu airport I thought I'd write one more.

We had to check out of our hotel at 11am so we did and just came to the airport as our flight was scheduled to leave at 2:25pm. We boarded and settled in and I saw a bunch of mechanics milling about the flight deck...never a good sign. Apparently our plane's battery charger stopped working so they had to change it out and replace the batteries. The Capt announced it would be a fairly quick fix, about 45 minutes, and then we'd be on the way. Well, here we are now at 6pm waiting for a flight from Anchorage to arrive and they will switch out planes and that one will take us to Seattle. I guess our original plane's problem, after they changed the batteries, was that the plane could not get any power...not a small problem.

The new plane from Anchorage is supposed to be here in about 45 minutes and then we are supposed to leave here at 7:54pm and arrive in Seattle at 3:34am. I hope I can sleep on the plane. This is kind of a goofy way to end a great ten days, but it is what it is.
