so, i arrive at JFK, and my flight says CANCELED on it, even though i had just checked on it a few hours before and everything was fine. thoughts of them telling me there were no more flights and that i'd have to come back tomorrow kept swimming through my head, but Jet Blue has to be better than that, right? they didn't cancel it because of "weather", they canceled it because airlines can't afford to fly flights that aren't full --- they just moved as many people as possible to the later orlando flights (which they had 4 of) and then people like me who miss the cutoff get told to come back tomorrow -- which is what the ticket counter lady told me.

"NO, i have to be there today, it is important"

well, she got me a flight to Fort Lauderdale that was leaving in 30 minutes. i snatched it and ran through security and barely made boarding. And now I'm sitting here in the Fort Lauderdale airport which thankfully has free Wi-Fi and going to figure out what to do next. I'm gonna try to convince Jet Blue to pay for my rental car to Orlando -- luckily it's only 215 miles to the hotel.

I HATE AIRLINES.

if anyone who is in Orlando sees this PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make sure i'm registered...

Disney is evil. Does it cost money to breathe there?
