Föderation EN Mi 16.04.2025 05:06:22 On my flight from São Paulo to Atlanta, a woman had too much to drink and she got cut off by order of the captain. She didn't like that, and assaulted a flight attendant who wouldn't serve her more alcohol. They diverted our flight to San Juan, Puerto Rico, where CBP agents took her and her companion off the plane. We sat on the tarmac for 2.5 hours while the flight attendants were interviewed by the FBI. Now, we've landed in Atlanta, and my connecting flight to Montreal is long gone. |

Föderation EN Mi 16.04.2025 05:07:19 I'm in a line with about 300 people from two different flights who all need to get rebooked and get a place to sleep for the night. The airport is mostly shut down, and there are only 4 gate agents working. Nobody is doing well here. |

Föderation EN Mi 16.04.2025 05:12:09 @evan - that sucks, sorry you have to deal with that |
|
Föderation EN Mi 16.04.2025 05:20:15 My bags are booked all the way to Montreal, so I am travelling light. Hoping I can get a flight tomorrow! 🤞🏼 |

Föderation EN Mi 16.04.2025 05:51:06 @evan Been there, done that. You have my deepest sympathies. Hope you can find a decent bed for the night. 🛌💤 |

Föderation EN Mi 16.04.2025 06:04:34 @evan ouch, may you be out of travel limbo soon! |

Föderation EN Mi 16.04.2025 06:59:38 One nice thing about having a layover in Atlanta is I get to stay at the Georgia Tech Hotel. I am going to explore campus before my flight tomorrow. Medien: 1 |

|
Föderation EN Do 17.04.2025 02:07:55 @evan ohhh... Sorry I didn't tell you before. I used to live in Atlanta and found it their best Attraction. I hope you can catch it next time. |

Föderation EN Do 17.04.2025 02:15:48 @gabriel I will put it on my list! I am pursuing a remote Masters in Computer Science from Georgia Tech so it was a real treat to spend some time on campus there |
|
Föderation EN Do 17.04.2025 02:25:20 @evan so you'll be "a heck of an engineer!" |
|
Föderation EN Do 17.04.2025 02:37:41 @gabriel exactly! |

Föderation EN Fr 18.04.2025 11:56:27 @evan this happened in Cuba last time I was there, a day after we left. I think it was 11 days. Complete country blackout. Super glad it didn’t happen on day 1 of our holiday. |

Föderation EN Mi 16.04.2025 05:08:49 @evan there's still time to come back to Brazil |
|
Föderation EN Mi 16.04.2025 05:26:02 @evan from this point on I’ll be looking for that moustache of yours in the background of every airplane freakout video. |
|
Föderation EN Mi 16.04.2025 05:39:59 @evan yikes, that all sucks. Good luck getting home soon. |
|
Föderation EN Mi 16.04.2025 05:54:41 @evan sorry that messed up your travel. We were on the Catalina Flyer (ferry) the other day and they absolutely over served so many people. This one lady was super drunk and kept talking loudly, and at some point (thankfully toward the end) started just yelling Fook Hugh. Fook Hugh. Over and over (thankfully strong enough east coast accent my kids could not understand her). When we disembarked, she started yelling at people again, and 2 other guys got in a fist fight and caused a mess outside embarkment area. Yay. |
