Flight Plans.

I would personally rather not.  Make plans to fly, that is. 

Our last plane trip from Boston to Savannah went swimmingly.  However, it was anything but that for those traveling to Boston from Savannah on the plane’s return trip.  Bad weather up East kept those passengers on the ground and in the airport for the next several hours.  We hear way too many stories like that these days.   

We all know the “flying” lingo.  The rules.  We know what TSA stands for, we know those wands have nothing to do with fairies, and we’re prepared for endless delays and screaming children.

I know that when I fly that I am doing so under their guidelines, their rules and regulations.  And all for good reasons. That doesn’t mean that I like it.

I was delighted, just recently, to read an article on “Gadgets for Air Travelers”.  Seemingly intended to make air travel easier.  I said to myself, now here’s a chance for you to get with the program. To act like a “seasoned” traveler rather than a “once-in-a whiler.”  After all, I also said to myself, it’s never too late. 

The article recommended that I buy a Twelve South AirFly.  I’m to plug it into a 3.5mm audio port and pair it with my Bluetooth. After I’ve done that, my USB-C will then be charged and I can get 22 hours of playtime.  Setting it up takes just seconds, they say.  Even I know better than that.

I’m still confused and not one bit hipper than I was before.  It may really be too late.  At least for me.
