Phooey! I'm assuming you at least got paid for your time?<br />The border on the silk quilt is lovely! I agree, it makes a very nice frame just as it is. Ooooh, I'd be a little apprehensive about washing it!lindaroohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13378726866013609136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259952795997957550.post-20340170633818686392014-08-12T10:37:02.975-05:002014-08-12T10:37:02.975-05:00I travel 2-3 times a month, most months.

So far I've only had one outright cancellation, but the story was the same-- the hour by hour delay, and then after 3 hours, I spotted the pilot and asked him what was going on, thus avoiding the rush to the counter downstairs to get a hotel voucher. Unfortunately, it was my wedding anniversary and I was really wanting to be home. We had to get up at 3AM for the first flight out. I agree with Elizabeth that managing expectations-- being honest and forthright-- would make a huge difference in how I felt about the experience.lwhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08731797783816953087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259952795997957550.post-56874863607006539662014-08-12T10:28:07.138-05:002014-08-12T10:28:07.138-05:00Our flight home from Orlando in January was delaye...Our flight home from Orlando in January was delayed, delayed, delayed, delayed. We finally boarded & were just about to take off when the pilot announced that we were going back to the gate b/c of a problem. Then the flight was cancelled. And they kept us in the dark about the whole thing. The airline automatically bumped us to another flight, but that's not really what we wanted. Our flight the next morning was delayed and they let us know by calling us at 4:30 in the morning. At that point, I was so grumpy about the whole thing. Or delayed replacement flight was delayed, delayed, delayed which caused us to miss several connecting flights. When we finally made it through the first leg of our journey, we had to go to a different gate b/c there was something wrong at the gate we were supposed to use. Upon exiting the plane, I went to the counter to ask if they could help us with a new connecting flight and they told us they had to board the next plane and we'd have to go down to a little office down the way. At that point, Mr. Bug, who is the most patient person I know, just about lost it. The whole experience was miserable. I really think that airlines could use a refresher in customer service. Managing expectations would save them a lot of angry and rude customers. Our trip home was delayed by 24 hours. We were tired and had little patience for it, but on the up side, at least we didn't miss the first day of our vacation because of it.<br /><br />Your silk quilt is gorgeous, as always!<br /><br />xo -EElizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07980461113595763030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259952795997957550.post-60661853537671831932014-08-12T09:37:40.584-05:002014-08-12T09:37:40.584-05:00Beautiful quilt -- thank you for the pretty.

I fly about 12 - 19 weeks a year and when that happens (even when I have elite status) -- I try to tell my self it was not meant to be for some reason. Not sure it helps but it makes me feel better.
