Fk u Edmonton

Stuck at the airport for the second time in a month because parts of the plane are unexpectedly frozen during the winter in Edmonton. Fucking retarded. If only there was a way to foresee the weather and to determine if water freezes below a certain temperature.

  • If they knew it was you trying to leave, I am sure that they would lay on extra crews to fix the issue, probably even get Stelmach out there with a shovel on the runway . . . soon this will all be a distant memory, and you'll be bitching about the homeless and the winos, just like a regular 'murican.
  • After being herded back on the plane 3 hours later the engine doesnt work.

    I think if his plans were to fly, running probably isn't a valid option.









    I`m here all week folks, try the veal.

    Well at least they didn't figure that out after take off... And they only have one engine? wtf...



    we're a very supportive group around here aren't we?
  • Off the plane again 7 hours after scheduled departure
  • That was long flight. Just to get to SoCal?

    I really hope that's what he meant, and not that they still hadn't taken off yet.

    If he was bitter about this before, this gonna get ugly now.
  • Oh, I am pretty certain about what is going on . . . I like poking the bear, though.

    Oh that's seriously gross. But it's a dry cold right?
  • Edit: fuck you continental airlines. What a clusterfuck.

    They only had 2 staff to check in 200+ people for a 645am flight so boarding didnt finish until 730am at which time they realized they forgot to empty the water lines last night so they were frozen.

    Wait on the tarmak for an hour then deplane.

    Reboard 3 hours later and they realize one of the engines is not working.

    Watch as flight crew load bottled water onto the plane that they could have done over the past 3 hours.

    Wait on the tarmak 2 hours then deplane.

    Reboard 2 hours later and they state that we are going to leave asap.

    They forgot to do some paperwork.

    Wait on the tarmak for an hour.

    Arrive in Houston. Obv missed connecting flight to Belize.

    Wait in line for an hour for hotel voucher.

    Eating dinner in hotel with the $18 dinner voucher.

    Can't even explain how inept the entire staff of this airline are or how many times i was lied to today.

    Managed to only tell 2 people to go fuck themselves.

    Get to try again tomorrow at 9am.

    Nah...but one would think air travel would get more efficient over time but my experiences over the past few years have been quite the opposite. I think that west jet is the only airline with a concept of customer service.



    Oh wait. Gf just waited 30 mins in line for free room arranged by continental...they are out of rooms.

    Well...we are fairly priviliged to be able to travel in the grand scheme, so it isnt really a huge problem. My major issue is that noone seems to be able to do a decent job or treat their customers well these days.

    But it could be worse. You could still be in Edmonton.


    Hope you have one hell of a good vacation after that start.

    Could be worse: tell them you're a wrestler. Goes over very smoothly.
