What kind of bull sheet is that? Here I am, left my house at 4:15n IN THE MORNING, and they don't even have the common decency to have a place open to get a drink and some eats? WTF?

I am NOT a morning person. I'm gonna go pass out on the plane now. Have a good day.

Unlucky!

For that exact reason (another coffee addict here) I bought a Gaggio espresso machine. Takes 6 mins to heat up and makes a superb espresso. Just what you need to drink before you leave the house!

Duh, Austin
Welcome to my world.

The only thing worse than that is getting there at 4AM for a flight to london, only to find that you have a 12-foot line in front of the counter. And that line takes about an hour before you get to the counter.

To find out your flight has been delayed to 12:30 in the afternoon.

A true coffee addict would never have left teh house without coffee.

My coffee maker has a timer. Set it the night before and when I wake up the coffee is ready.

Well, hopefully they'll have tolerable coffee on the plane. Caffiene headaches suck.

I'm not so much a coffee addict, I don't really drink it. BUT, Richmond "International" Airport is so small, there is one place to get some food/coffee/soda, etc. OK, there are two, but only the coffee place is any good.

Now that I am a little more awake I can make a bit more sense.


Austin, I've been there! I was connecting through Charlotte one day and was stuck in the airport for 9 hours. 9 freaking hours with nothing to do except sit in their rocking chairs and wait for football to start. Then I got totally loaded at the Chili's watching football, and could barely find my seat on the plane :D

I am not a fan of any flight that is totally in the dark. If it's in the AM that means it's too damn early! If it's in the PM, that probably means it will go until the AM, and I hate redeyes!

The only good thing about today is that I got seat 2A (no one in front of me) on the previous flight, and I have seat 1A on this next flight. I dig it.

Rookie... I get there so early some days that the TSA and gate agents are on the bus with me (employee parking is adjacent to long term lot).
