I am stuck at the San Jose airport. The flight time kept creeping back...from 6:30pm to 7:30 to 9:00 and now about 10pm....meaning if we actually leave at the new time I'll get home around 1am. I'm exhausted from the week and really didn't need a severely delayed flight. For a while it wasn't even clear whether the airline could even get us out tonight. I tried to switch to a different flight but everything is sold out, even at the other nearby airports (San Francisco and Oakland airports aren't far away).
What really tweaks me out was that I wanted to take an earlier flight, but my manager switched a meeting that was originally scheduled for Friday to this afternoon, forcing me to stay on this extremely delayed flight...and then didn't bother to show up for the meeting. Aargh...

Hope you are safely home soon!
Airports and business meetings ... "Aargh" says it all! My son (on business in Chicago) called this morning to let us know that his flight back to his home in Philadelphia was cancelled due to bad weather. (He just called again a few minutes ago as I was reading your post.) Fortunately he was able to get a ride with someone to Indianapolis where he's now waiting for a flight to bring him back to Philly by tonight.
Oh ... and get this ... the training that he missed this week because he was out-of-office can only be made up in the UK! More airports.
Thanks Maricello and Cellodonna! I arrived home at 1am this morning. I was very glad that for a change, I didn't have a meeting at 7am! Traveling is not fun these days.
