Ouch! Delays/cancellations I suppose?

One day I did fly to Sacramento for a 15 minute presentation. It was a power move by a client to try to put pressure on me. I called his bluff and went in person. Left and went back to SMF for a redeye.

What in the world do you do?

I'm usually your typical M-Th. consultant but occasionally have one off trips like the one tomorrow.

It was icy in Atlanta but I figured I was going west so if I could just get in the air I’d be fine.
My flight was supposed to be going to SanDiego non stop but it was delayed several hours so I booked an earlier one to OC through SLC (I forgot that part).
After a delay we got in the air but by the time we got to SLC I’d missed my flight to OC.
“Fortunately” there was one more that night and I got on it.
We took off and just as we are airborne the pilot comes on and says we have to go back to SLC because they can’t determine that the landing gear came up.
We land back in SLC with fire trucks all over the place but no issues.
Turns out it was just a small issue so we take off again.
About 1/2 hour in we are informed we are rerouting to LAX because we would not make it to Orange County by 10. And you can’t land there after 10. Noise ordinance.
We get to LAX and they’d arranged a bus to take us to SNA (OC).
That’s it. CSB.
Haha!
