As we gear up for the busy holiday travel schedule I am
shocked to hear that the world’s busiest airport in Atlanta was paralyzed after
a power substation explosion. Kind of
weird to think that a power failure was responsible for crippling the super
busy airport. There were thousands of
flights that were canceled in the 11 plus hour shutdown in Atlanta, not to
mention all the adjoining flights from all over the country and the world. I am guessing that the power outage showed
the vulnerability of airports and that the terrorists will now use that knowledge
against us and against all travelers. I couldn’t
imagine being stuck on a plane for any amount of time, it did happen to me
about 20 years ago, when flying back to La Crosse from California, and it was
only about 2 hours, if I had to sit on the plane for up to 11 like some did
yesterday, I am guessing I would be like most and would probably not be the
most pleasant person out there.
