On The Move,If You're Lucky

On The Move, If You're Lucky

´
Eventually, the glow you feel from all those x~rays you absorbed in the ever~changing world of passenger screening subsides.  You reach for your phone and notice a phone message from your airline ~your flight has been delayed  hour and fifteen minutes.  Your layover of just under 2 hours is now "estimated" to be 35 minutes.

Can you make it?  It depends.  From the 20th row, there are seventy people who must disembark  ahead of you.  You'll  lose ten to twelve minutes waiting for them to get out of your way.  Further, your departure time is just an estimate and is likely, as it was in our case, likely to be optimistic by fifteen minutes.  In short, all of your layover time is gone.  

But miracles do happen and they may delay departure of your international flight since twenty~five of the passengers on your flight are trying to make the same connection you are.  "We made it baby, it could happen to you."  NEXT: mazeophobia in Venice
