Well, that wasn’t so bad!
The car arrived ahead of time, which is a good thing! Since
the conversion of United Airlines to their new computer system this weekend,
everything has been hit-or-miss for them! It took me much longer than expected
to get checked in because the system could not identify who I was.
Apparently 16 Feb 1962 is not a valid date for a birthday
and there is no such place as the United States of America issuing passports!
After failing to check-in online due to the errors and then failing at all my
attempts this afternoon at the kiosk in the airport, the agent tried for what
seemed like hours (but was more like 45 minutes) to get it to work. She now
knows my passport number and spelling of my name by heart, I am sure – she
keyed them in enough!
But then, security was a breeze, the airport is surprisingly
quiet for this time of the afternoon, and I am sitting at the gate waiting for
my flight. All is going well! I guess I will switch over to the Kindle app now
and keep reading the book club selection for the month.
Wherever you are today I hope that all waits are short ones!
