    WELL SHIT AGAIN...!!!!.. Instead of landing in Brussels about now we are stuck in a hotel in Chicago.. never even got out of my time zone...haha.. So last I posted our flight was delayed 3 hours.. we finally get to Chicago and the connection flight had closed its doors.. Freakin ton of people at Customer service pissed off.... The next flight we could get was 6pm tomorrow..yes I said 6pm!!! WTF??? United Airlines just robbed us an entire day in Amsterdam... but the good news is out flight tomorrow is direct into Schiphol... arriving at 9am-ish. I hope no one else flight problems, but if you have United I wish you the best of luck.

    Aer Lingus? Good stuff, they were set to strike next Monday and Wednesday, luckily they called it off. One time Delta over-sold my connecting flight to Jamaica costing my family one day of vacation. Needless to say, my wife was upset and the airline cut us a check for almost enough to pay for the whole trip. :D

    I was stressing over the strike. I'm flying on the 16th and 18th, the 2 proposed strike days. Big relief when they called it off.

    Yes, they are generally a good airline. I really dis-like Ryan Air. :-q

    I'm Lingusin in on Saturday night flight (JFK to Dublin to Schipol). Its only an hour and 15 minute layover so I hope we make it out of JFK in a timely manner.

    PS what the phudge is a rucksack. The internet video for Lingus says no rucksack carry ons. Is a small north face book bag with shoulder strapsa "rucksack"?

    Not sure what a ruck sack is but they weren't really strict about the carry ons when I went. No one was measuring bags or anything.
