I was supposed to be on the airplane toward Beijing International Airport from New York right now. But I am not.
The flight that would take me from Raleigh to Newark took off in about 8 o'clock. Then after about 10 minutes the plane is having technical difficulties -something with the baggage door lock. It headed back and landed in RDU again, to fix the problem.
The pilot told us that it'll take only a few minutes, hopefully. In fact the plane didn't take off until 11am, without me but my baggage -I decided to leave the plane and rebook my flight, because they promised us that there will be seat for us in tomorrow's flight.
It actually turns out that there will be seat for me to fly to Newark tomorrow morning, but not to Beijing, most planes from anywhere in United States to Beijing are simply full. The earliest one I can get is from San Francisco to Beijing tomorrow afternoon. So the travel plan now is that I have to take a plane to Newark about 6pm today, have a night in hotel, and leave Newark for SF, then, Beijing.
What a day.
