Early morning start to get to airport and hoping somehow we get upgraded, at least for the Chicago to Honolulu leg which was 9 hours. At the airport we got a really nice lady who checked our baggage in all the way to Honolulu and also moved us on an earlier flight in case we missed the connecting flight in Chicago. So we asked to be upgraded and she said nothing and her boss was standing next to her the whole time telling us how much he loves Australia and etc, etc. She flashes our tickets to us and says ladies l got you these and we couldn’t really see what the ticket said. She was very excited and popped them in a sleeve and passed them over to us. So we say our goodbyes and thank them, go around the corner high five each other look at the tickets and nothing. She was able to print our boarding passes and that was it. Our excitement quickly died and off we went to the lounge to drown our sorrows.
Because we moved flights to Chicago it meant we had to sit right at the back which was painful but not as painful as being stuck on a 9 hours flight where our seats didn’t recline. On our flight our captain also told us that the left engine was having some issues and we would need to sit on the tarmac while the engineers did a drive by to check it out. Well Rachael was beside herself and the lady sitting next to her also supported during takeoff and landing which was very nice. Even though you had to buy your own food and the chairs didn’t recline the flight itself was good.
Aloha and Welcome to Honolulu where we got laid at the airport. The lady on the plane got picked up by her husband who passed on her 2 lays she got onto us and wished us all the best and hoped the lays brought us some luck.
