Jon recounts the unbelievable true story of a recent trip he took to Washington DC on American Airlines that took 500% longer than expected - thanks to a cascade of bad luck and SEVEN separate mistakes or errors by the airline. This video contains LOTS of strong language, viewer discretion is advised.

I'm not sharing this video for attention, or to "get something" from American Airlines - I'm done with them, really. This was simply an incredible travel story I just had to share, because that's what I do: I tell stories for a living. Hopefully you can get some enjoyment from my suffering. Apologies again for the language :)

To clear up some confusion:
New Hampshire's MHT is a small, regional airport that serves only ~2,000 passengers a day. On an off-season, weekday afternoon like this example - I ROUTINELY can get from curb-to-gate in under 15 minutes. We arrived around 11:20 a.m. - a full hour before our flight. It then took 20+ minutes for AA to re-instate my ticket (that's the 11:40 a.m. on my timeline, here). Bottom line: WE ARRIVED WITH ENOUGH TIME TO MAKE OUR FLIGHT under any reasonable situation.

In today's "Five Minute Fridays", I recorded a portion about 'dealing with viral videos', specifically - this one:    • Dealing With A Viral Video
