    he should just go to LAX and drive up.... the Chi to LAX non stops are usually 757 planes (not the MD-80)....

    I was wondering if this airline fiasco was going to affect any of the fans flying to the Ed solo shows.

    that blows. How infuriating.

    It's too late now, but would it have been much cheaper to just get a rental car from LAX? This time of day, it wouldn't be such a bad drive.

    the price wasn't much different and sweet adeline is kind enough to pick me up in SB so this was easier (at least for me :) )..

    and yes, pureandeasy, i guess good karma! either way, relieved i'm on the right side of the country (or left, i guess...)!

    I'm so glad you finally made it on. I was really worried when I didn't see you on the plne until the last second.

    But it was so worth the stress. SB was amazing. :D
