Oops.
I fucked up once coming back from working in Hong Kong just after the rugby 7's. . Went to check in online to be told by the BA website that check in for my flight had closed 22 hours previously.

Thankfully I had a flexible ticket, otherwise that would have been a very expensive error.

I missed a flight to SF once because I read 11.00 on the ticket as 1.00 pm

Ah well, SF is full of gayers anyway.

yeah, I was kind of due to present at a conference there though.
Cue rapid re-book to LA and then trying to get an internal flight from LAX, which is like trying to get fucking blood from a stone. It's the worst laid out airport in the universe, and I fly through Charles de Gaulle regularly, so that's saying something.

Agree re LAX & CDG. JFK also a nightmare (customs takes hours), I try & fly in to LG instead if I have to go to New York.

I just try not to go to NY at all.

I'm ok with Manhatten for about three days, then I have to get out.
Same with Chicago. Never had that problem with Atlanta though and I used to spend about 10 weeks a year there for five years.

Oh, now that's just rude of them.
When a chap can't skive off work for test match, what's the world coming to?
