Have you been flying through Atlanta recently? I hate that airport.
Actually, I'm glad you started this thread, because I've been having similar problems. I thought it was just my own bad luck. I'm still inclined to think that some of my problems are due to luck (who has their purse w/passport stolen on the metro on their way to the airport?!), but every single time I've flown this year I have experienced some delay in flight. One of those times Delta decided to award me a few bonus frequent flier miles, but otherwise it's just been grumpy employees and grumpy stuck passengers shoved from one gate to the next as the flight is more and more delayed. 5 hour delay for a 2 hour flight? No problem, let's all just hang out and read a book. I've come to expect to spend all day en route, surrounded by smelly frustrated travelers, no matter how short the trip.
