So, we're off to Manchester International Airport tomorrow morning at 5:30. Flight doesn't actually leave until 10:30, but they want you there at least three hours early. Dumb? A little. Bleh ( Read more... )

Chicago is a decently easy airport to get around, so if your first flight isn't running late, you should be fine. I actually like O'Hare, of the big airports.

Yeah, I've been through there a few times myself. I'm not worried about the flights so much as Immigration/Customs. At least I don't have too much to worry about in that respect. I should fly right through and head off to grab the luggage. It's ellyll getting through in due time that worries me. Then again, maybe Chicago's a bit more on the ball with that than Vegas is.

That's true. Welsh people are veeery suspicious. Customs never trusts the sheep-lovers. ;)

But yeah, I'm betting Chicago is a lot smoother than Vegas.

I think it has more to do with the sheer numbers coming through at one time. I have the same problem coming back this direction. Might have more trouble this time because we didn't get my indefinite leave to remain visa switched over to my new passport. The UK Border Agency SAYS it shouldn't be a problem, but our worry is that my new passport is the one that has the name change on it.

I'm sorry to say I've been where you are. It never stops being horrible, but it gets a lot easier to deal with as time goes on. I wish I could do something to make this easier for you, but all I can do is say that I'm thinking about you.

If you ever, ever want to talk, even if it's just to take your mind off things, I'm always here.

I doubt I'll be on too much while in the States, but I'll probably need to talk when I'm back home.

The only thing to really worry about is the weather, right now. It's kind of a snowy-icy rain here in Chicagoland this evening, so there may be some hangups for flights. Otherwise, it's not bad. Safe travels.

As long as the flight that hangs up is the one on the way to Vegas, I'm good with it.
