Here’s a bit of backstory: I DJed until 3am Saturday night and had to be at the airport by 6:45am for an 8:45am flight. So I didn’t sleep much. I had planned to use WiFi on the two connecting flights (Nashville to Detroit and Detroit to LaGuardia) to stay awake so I would definitely pass out on the long haul. That didn’t happen. I sat down and passed out on both of those flights. On the Detroit to JFK flight, I was greeted by a flight attendant who was so full out of attitude, you could tell he was having one of those days when he had to live the stereotype – remind me to file a complaint with Delta about him. The Detroit to JFK flight was delayed, and with the new “board 30 minutes before takeoff or lose your seat on international flights” rule – I had to literally run from the shuttle (JFK has two Delta terminals now connected by a slow JITNEY). That kind of added stress was not appreciated. I barely made it to the plane – sat down, turned off data roaming on my phone, popped a NyQuil, and passed out for the entire trip over.
