Last one on the plane...

Ahhhhh airport stories, I always have those😂

Here‘s my itinerary. Read below for the story....

FLIGHT NUMBER ONE:

My experience at the Columbus airport could not have been smoother. I started the trip off on the positive side. I had the absolute last seat on the plane, which I don’t mind at all. Then the flight attendant says the crew wants to use my seat for more storage and asked if I’d be willing to move. Of course I said okay. WELL, she took me to the very FRONT of the plane and thanked me repeatedly for being willing to upgrade for free, um hello I should be the one saying thank you lol. Anyways, it was a great flight and it went fast. Landed safely in Chicago and made my way to my gate.

I’ve been to the Chicago airport before, but this time it had some more decorations that made it even cooler.

My layover wasn’t super long and I was... distracted... for the majority of it. Then I remembered I had two essays due during the time I’d be over the Pacific Ocean. (For those who don’t know, I am in college and it is finals week. Next semester will be my last, almost done!) Not knowing if I’d have any Internet I wanted to get these done before boarding. I looked at the clock. I had FIFTEEN MINUTES to write TWO essays. I got to work immediately, doing my best with what little time and resources I had. The airline started boarding the plane. I typed faster. After the fastest boarding process I have ever seen in my entire life, I looked up and heard the “last call for boarding“ announcement. Perfect timing because I had just finished my essays. Wrong. At that exact moment, the Internet on my laptop crashed and wouldn’t let me submit anything and the flight attendants were ready to shut the door. I went to the nearest employee and explained I just needed to reconnect to turn something in and I’d be right on. She was a huge help. She took my passport and boarding pass to get me checked in and guided me down the hall while I focused on my laptop. Boom. The “submitted successfully“ button popped up. We all cheered! (If my professor only knew...)
