    Re: How long to arrive before flight?

    We were scheduled to leave yesterday and made it home via Delta after a several hour delay. The rest of our family were flying American and were on the plane for about 45 minutes then the flight was cancelled until today due to not having a legal flight crew. They got to the airport 3 1/2 hours early today for the rescheduled flight after sleeping 5 in a room at the only hotel that they could get - at a cost of 888 US dollars. They tell me that it was horrendous this morning with all of the rescheduled flights and it took them the entire 3 hours to re-check in and get through security. They are currently on board the plane again and hoping that it actually gets them home this time! And beside sharing this story - I guess the point is that you just can't predict what you will find at any airport these days - it is definitely not back to pre-pandemic conditions.

    Good God...I thought being trapped for 5 1/2 hrs on the shuttle from the airport to Negril on a Friday afternoon was bad.

    How could it possibly take that long from the airport to negril? Sounds like there's a story there.

    Yes, multiple fatality auto accident maybe 10km outside of MoBay. The longest we went without moving a single foot was 45 mins. It wasn't an ideal way to start a vaca but the saving grace was knowing that something as cool as Negril was on the other side...
