Long story but here is the short version?..Trip to Vegas back in ?99. Usually book my entire trip on the Internet but I used a travel agent for the flight. We were going for 6 days, Friday to Thursday. Somewhere along the process the travel agent just put us into the system for a full week, Friday to Friday. No one ever looked at our airline tickets to check the dates. Trip was awesome, great time had by all, no one wanted to go home. Went to Vegas airport and stood in line at check-in counter for an hour. Got up to counter and ticket agent says to me, ?Did you switch the day of your return with the airline?? I looked at the ticket and saw that we were a day early. Not a good thing. It?s 1:00am at home and I had some calls to make, bosses, family, etc. How stupid could we have been? Something so simple but when you tell a travel agent dates you would think they would be right. No more flights leaving Vegas that night. We could have been put on stand-by for early a.m. flights but decided against it. The travel agent had just given us an extra night in Vegas, awesome! Scare us up a hotel room and a car for the night and we are good to go. Bosses were not real happy with us but WTH, it was an honest(stupid yes) mistake.
