Alyvia's first trip to Washington - Day 1
pictures of them waiting... ;)
Alyvia is SO observant, she loved looking at the planes.
As we sat there for hours just waiting... there were tons of flights over booked and we were just listening to what vouchers they were offering and how long that particular flight would have to wait for the next flight. They were all about 4-5 hours. I kept telling Kristofer I have always wanted to take one of those offers. So finally when our flight came sure enough they over booked this flight too. We were headed through Las Vegas then to Seattle. Well, I said let me just find out the stipulations. I waited in line and the guy, 2 in front of me, was saying he had a connecting flight and the lady said they don't usually do connecting because they can't guarantee the connecting flight. Then girl in front of me said she could do it. Then I talked to the lady and said I heard you don't connecting flights, but we don't have to connect through Las Vegas because we're headed to Seattle. She put our name down and said just load the plane and they'll call us. As we were about to enter the plain they called our name. The next plane was boarding and we would arrive 15 mins later. We would just connect in Chicago instead... So I was like deal! Our voucher was for $660.80. :) We have a year to use it. The downfall was that the flight was back at gate 33 and we had to go through security again! But it was worth it!! :)
Alyvia did great as she always does. We arrived at 8:30 Seattle time.

I have always wanted to be in that situation to get a voucher--if it ever comes, I'll know to be proactive as you were! Alyvia is a doll--I love the polka-dot headband.
