As Amy and I were just zipping up our last of five bags, we got a text message from Dana -- their initial flight on American had been cancelled the night before (thunderstorms or some such) and the airline had rerouted them through Dallas (that is, from Detroit to Dallas to La Guardia) with an arrival of 9:50 p.m., ten minutes before our Aerlingus flight left JFK.

My family, which consists of myself, my wife, and our 2-year-old daughter, had decided to take a trip in February before we started to try to add onto our family. We had enough frequent flyer miles to go to either the Caribbean or South America, but I noticed American Airlines had a great deal to London.
