On living close to the airport… and not flying to PhiladelphiaWell, it’s six o’clock in the morning and I’m sitting in the terminal waiting for my flight to Philly for the WWJD? conversation. I hear you: Jake, weren’t you supposed to fly out yesterday? Well, since you are asking, yes, I was. However, Airtran decided that they needed to cancel my flight yesterday and the next available flight wasn’t until 7 AM today. But wait a minute; you are probably asking yourself, does that mean you had to leave the airport yesterday when your flight was canceled and then return at this God-awful hour, going through the oh so pleasant TSA rigmarole? Yep. It’s been loads of fun.So the moral of this story is that you should live close to the airport. I only live 10 minutes from the Atlanta airport, which makes a big difference when something like this happens. But there is another moral to this story: do whatever you can to avoid the Philadelphia airport. I have had more problems with flights in and out of Philly than all of my other bad flight experiences put together … times ten! That makes the prospects of doing further study at this school, which is over an hour from the airport, ominous. With any luck I’ll be at the Emergent Philosophical Conversation by mid-morning.

Yes, Philly is pretty bad. But, there's always Newark! Oh, wait, which is always in the top 3 airports in the world for longest delays.
