Looks like about 76 down on the cubicle farm. I'm guessing 60's here, which is fine with me.

I post for all who may be considering an airplane trip a rough transcript of 12 hours preceding our flight home. I've spared you the 2-day marooning in Chicago on the way there.

Mon. Night:
Traveller: Hi, I'd like to confirm that AA flight x is leaving as scheduled tomorrow morning.
Agent: Yes, it is.
Traveller: Thank you. And, oh, by the way, you do have a reservation for "Barnes," correct?
Agent: Uh, says here that you cancelled. (Something about you never informed the airline that you were going to NM by another flight.)
Traveller: Um, no, I stopped by the counter at 3pm Friday to tell them I'm not taking their flight that was 2 days late. I was told I could get another flight and cancel only the trip out when they booked that one. I told the ticket agen that we were still on the trip home.

1h 15m later
Agent: OK, you're on United flight x, which leaves one hour earlier at 7:30am
Traveller: Great, looking forward to it

Next morning, after testing the envelope of a late model Hyundai on the 60 mile drive to the airport.
Traveller: Hi, we're here to check in for United flight x.
Agent: Hmmm. Says here you're on the American flight.
Traveller: Really? I have a confirmation here that they switched the first leg to United.
Agent: No, they switched your second leg to American out of Chicago.
Traveller: Fine. We get home tonight, and we pay no more money. Can you do that?
Agent: Go talk to (AA Agent) Mike, he has your information.
Traveller: OK - see you in 10 minutes when we get shuffled back here.
Agent: Don't worry, you're all set.

shuffle, shuffle, shuffle...
Mike: Hi. Says here you're cancelled on this flight. You're on the United flight.

shuffle, shuffle, shuffle...
Agent: Here are your tickets. Since we've just changed them, you'll have to go through the extra security screening...
