Did anyone try to fly this past weekend?

[Man With A Plan]

Was trying to fly from Southwest Florida up to a wedding in Ashville, North Carolina this past weekend with a connecting flight in Atlanta. Ended up getting stuck at the Atlanta airport for two days. Delta cancelled six flights on me because their computer system was down. Each time that happened I had to wait in a line for about 3 hours to rebook. I did that six times. Thousands of people stranded. No rental cars available unless you had a prior reservation so I couldn't drive the three hours to Ashville. No hotel rooms available at the airport so I slept on the floor Friday night. It's worrisome how total the collapse is when there is a computer glitch. I never did make it to Ashville. I ended up flying back to Florida Sat night late.

Yeah, I was behind a gent in the grocery story store checkout line who was sharing his story of what a zoo the Minneapolis airport was with serious camping out being done, specially involving Delta flights.

I'd like "Why I'm Glad I Don't Fly" for $1000, Alex.

Yeah, even taking LSD doesn't help.
