It was probably just this week for retired military. The first step in the boarding process for Delta is pre-boarding, which they say is for people needing extra time to board or Active Duty Military with ID.

Yes, and thank goodness we were on Delta and did not take the AA that connects thru Philly. That flight was cancelled yesterday! :0
I would have been sooooo angry!

Wow, that really sucks. Hope people were able to get to the island on another airline.

The person that posted their experience said they put them up overnight in a hotel for flight next day.

Sal e Pepe for the b-day dinner tonight. JAX tomorrow.

Slept 11 hours after arriving! (Well, the mice may have been in the kitchen a few times nibbling baguette or cheese.)

Agreed and where exactly it is and I think I read it’s up a flight of steps so how difficult it would be to go up them. Happy Birthday and hope you have a great time.

In fact, with all the TTOL family on the island now, very surprised that no one has post any pics! Very strange! Everyone enjoy

We are on the DL this trip. wink

At Kakao right now. $20 for chairs. Got 2 umbrellas as well. GP says hello.

((Linda, One Eyed Jack didn’t survive Irma. I’m pretty upset and crying. Not a good story. I want to hurt someone.))

Raining a bit now. Island needs it.

Will probably go sit at Driftwood and then hit Dinghy Dock or
make a salad and eat leftovers.

KLM just landed. Hubby is happy. How many of those pictures do we need? Lol

You might want to reconsider Dinghy Dock after my my experience last night. You think those sorry ***s on Pinel were rude this is another level. LOL

KLM pictures never get boring. We drive over once every trip to photo it & I'm excited every time.
This is your husband's birthday, right? Yours is end of October? Happy birthday wishes! Enjoy!
