I left Frederick around noon Eastern time (9 a.m. Pacific) for the airport, then flew out of Baltimore at 3 p.m. It was a long but mostly painless flight to Las Vegas (although the last 20 minutes were pretty rough air), where I would connect with another Southwest flight to Reno. On the ground in Las Vegas, the irony of having a layover in my home airport hit me. Then the flashing light on the electronic Departures board really hit me: DELAY. My one hour layover became three hours…in Las Vegas. Talk about miserable. My family was home, 30 minutes away, but since Southwest wasn’t sure when we’d leave, I couldn’t leave the airport. So close, and yet so far…
