Originally posted by mlpriorYes, that's why I'm stressed. I worry about getting hassled going through security, because I don't think I can live that long without my laptop. And I worry about being stranded in some bizarre airport. When I flew during the Air Traffic Controllers' Strike (yes, I'm a moron -- that's another thread), I ended up in Boulder. That would've been ok except that it wasn't on my itinerary and they really weren't planning to fly to Tucson. I think there were seven of us on that plane. Then there's the time I got stuck in Chicago because my plane sat on the runway waiting for the outgoing plane to de-ice. I don't worry about being blown to bits; I worry about all the other stuff!
Have a wonderful trip! 😴😴
You are not flying are you? 😴😴

It's a long walk from Wisconsin to Arizona.
Funny I flew just a month ago and it was so lax that I carried my swiss army knife (attached to my key chain) on the plane, to Detroit and then back again. 😳
Originally posted by mlpriorI flew on Thursday, and the controls were not any worse than normal (neither in Germany nor in Norway; in Denmark I didn't have to go through security). I didn't even hear about the whole thing until afterwards. But it's probably quite different in the US. 😕 Good luck, reader!

Originally posted by huckleberryhoundFast ferry to holyhead, train to chester, train to brum. total travel time about 6 hours. It works out at about 6 pints on the ferry and 24 cans on the trains, if you set off about midday you should just get in to brum in time toget ready to go out.
