You seem to forget about weather delays. "Moment's notice" my foot. Me,
I've had to cancel more family trips than fly them.
That's just bad luck, George. I can't remember the last trip we delayed
because of weather. (Of course, it's been an almost perfect flying season
in the Midwest, thanks to the months-long drought.)
Have we ended up delayed a few times? You bet! But our three days stuck in
Nashville (waiting for the snow to stop) have become some very fond
memories, even though (at the time) we would have much rather have been at
Sun N Fun.
It's all part of the adventure of flying.
You're the guy who recently begged for ideas on things to make them want
to go flying instead of something else.
That's for just "run of the mill" bop-around flying. For family trips,
they are every bit as eager to get in the plane as I am!
