Blogging from Hilton Head Airport...

...because guess what!? We are delayed once again on another Delta flight. This is about 4 in a row. This time it was because the engine gauge on the plane did not work and they had to 'wake up' a mechanic to come look at it. Attention Delta: Please look into updating your planes!! There is always some sort of mechanical error that they TRY to blame on weather..not this time! We were in the front row and heard the captain telling the flight attendant. Previous to that comment, we heard "Hey we need some coffee up here."

I think there are about 6 flights out of Hilton Head a day, it very laid back here. We had a 6:30am flight, got here about 6:40am and the security was not even open yet. Yep, so we waited a couple of the dozen or so white rocking chairs until the security crew got here. Boarded our tiny prop plane with 11 rows on it and then got the bad news that we are delayed. Luckily we had a 2 hour layover in Atlanta and keep your fingers crossed that we make that connection. We do not feel like hanging out in the Atlanta airport any longer than we need to.

UPDATE: Boarded the plane at 7:32 EST, got on the plane, "Let's try this one more time"...sat down, overheard flight attendant and pilot.."We can't take off yet, there is a ground hold in Atlanta". DAMN U ATL!!
