St. Louis-Miami, American Airlines AA1047, 6:00 AM CST, Friday, January 2, 2004:
Woke up at 3:00 AM, and got to the airport at approximately 4:15 AM.
Security was bordering in paranoia, as usual, and finally got to the gate at 5:30.
Took off from St. Louis at exactly 6:00 AM, couldn't see much, since I was seated on an aisle seat and it was dark, anyway, so I went to sleep.
Two words: NO FOOD. Just a measly soda and a power bar.
Generally speaking, the flight was very pleasant, except for a really strong turbulence 10 minutes after takeoff.
Flight lasted 2 hours and 30 minutes, arriving at MIA at 9:30 AM EST.
Waited for 4 hours at MIA, had lunch there, and checked in for MIA-BAQ.
Miami-Barranquilla, Avianca AV0003, 2:00 PM EST, Friday, January 2, 2004:
Same drill as STL's, but no baggage check-in involved, since my baggage was ticketed all the way to BAQ in STL.
This flight was also pleasant, much more since we ACTUALLY had real food: Beef stew, veggies, mashed potatoes, cheesecake and soda.
The only negative thing: I fell asleep in a rather bad position, and got whiplash, which I'm still hurting from!!!
This time I had a window, seat, but thanks to my mom, who left our camera in our Thanksgiving trip to Waco, have no pics to share.
Wait for my review for the flight back to STL!!!
