Strategic WIN
Jan. 19th, 2009 12:07 amThe first time I flew to Australia there was a delayed plane that made me end up missing my connection from SFO to Sydney (I usually fly EWR -> LAXorSFO -> SYD -> final_destination). After that I always planned an extra long layover in California just in case.
Last time it didn't pay off. All I had was a lonely boring time in LAX.
Today I got to LAX and checked in to find that the plane that would take us to SYD hasn't arrived yet and is expected to be very late. However, I was early enough to LAX that they've able to put me on an earlier flight.
Not only will I get to SYD a few hours early, but the plane is one of the new Double-Decker Airbus planes. I hear it is quite luxurious.
Finally my strategy pays off!
