^^ that's what makes it crappier. The orbitz girl told me check in time was 20 minutes before flight. I told my mom to take her time in running an errand. So, she picks me up 915 at home, i pass by dollar store to buy a lock (which stupidity tells me, why bother since all i have are carry-ons) I get to the airport 25 minutes before takeoff and the girl in the counter said that their check-in time is 30 friggin minutes and that they are already boarding..

i hopped on the next flight at 12pm..

that's bogus.... :sweat: :shakehead:

20 minutes... :shocked:

I have to be between 2 or 3 hours before my flight. The check-in line is always around an hour or more. I hate waiting at the airport. :usuck:

yeah, for int'l flights, 3 hours, or more before flight time, and 1 1/2 or so for domestic, extra time just in case.

^^ i would love to, but when they mentioned that I can't wear earrings (i have extra piercings) i said.. nah. hehehehe.. it's enticing cause the base pay is 80K/annual with all the benefits.. not including overtime pay..

i just don't want the field work though.. not really nice getting shot at..

yeah be a cop in l.a. then you can join the ranks of some of the most reviled public servants in the area...it'll do wonders for your self-esteem until you get caught on the next home video camera giving some one a beat down.

make sure you ask to be stationed at the rampart division....l.a's finest.

That sucks. I thought you were at LAX. Sorry. :doh:

Regional airport usually don't have long wait time. Most of the time you're alone or have to wait less than 5 minutes. They have more security people than passenger. It's fun to walk on the runway though. :)

Glad to see you at least you had fun and met nice people. The duty free shops are nice, but I've never met a fun airport employee. Here they have so much charisma, they make Al Gore look like a wild party animal. :hehe:

No kidding. Ive never heard of such a short wait.
I always leave a minimum of an hour between any check in and flight.

I think you'd have to be totally heartless not to cry during Beautiful Life.
I rarely cry but I cried in that one. :shamefulcry:
Tokiwa was much better as a handicapped woman than she was as a dancer in Refrain. :hehe:

I wonder if there are any who live in the States at this forum who haven't flown...... :headscratch:
