Are we sure that was the diplomatic flight?

Granted, there probably aren't too many flights out of Wuhan to California right now. But, the article I saw specifically mentioned the Ontario, CA airport and said the flight was expected tomorrow morning.

Evidently Ontario airport has been identified as a "repatriation" site for a decade or so and has held training simulations in the past.

quote:


ONT was designated by the federal government as an official repatriation center for the West Coast about a decade ago, and county departments have participated in a number of preparedness exercises with state and federal agencies over the years, the county said.

Well, regardless, I can't wait to hear from Honkus again.

Mainly because it should mean they are back in the States and safe.

But selfishly because the stories he will have should be the most interesting read TD has ever had, whenever he actually has time to sit and post about it.

Whatever has been happening he's been eating like an emperor while at his mother in laws.

All the money our government wastes and they want him to pay back the $4400?

They had a flight this past weekend that they booked on their own and it got cancelled with no refund.
I don't believe this. Maybe it's a delayed refund but they'll get a refund based on the travel insurance. If he didn't purchase travel insurance that was pretty dumb. You ALWAYS get travel insurance for personal trips like that. shite happens out of your control.

just to clarify...the add'l $$ beyond the $4400 is to help them cover expenses during their 11-13 (?) day quarantine, as well as flights from Ontario, California back to Rhode Island. Donations or well-wishes are equally welcomed! He was asked not to discuss flight details..so we really don't know which flight he is/was on. I last talked to him at 9:30 this morning, and they were checking in baggage, but they had not gone thru customs and the flight had not yet arrived. He has not responded since the last message at 9:30.

I mean, this virus is a freak thing. I usually do one international fishing trip a year and have never done insurance. I also avoid peak hurricane season. If I were to ever get sick enough that I can't travel that's just shitty luck I guess.

Which, if my world clock is correct, would have been 11:30 pm on Tuesday in China.

This flight is head to Alaska from Wuhan.

I’m betting this is the flight The Honkus is on. Should be arriving around 11:45 central time tonight.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say you didn't bother to read the info on the internet panhandling site

the gall of a democrat to criticize this situation and call the GoFundMe a panhandling site

At least he's not demanding the government take the money out of other's pockets at gunpoint to hand over to him.

Unless they have them in shipping containers that isn’t it. Khallita only has freighters.
