Trip Report LAS-CPR on G4 - Oct. 22, 09.
mgr...@trib.com
I turned in my bag check at 1:45pm to claim my bags from the bell desk
at the Palace Station Hotel and Casino (I will be posting a hotel
review at tripadvisor.com). After claiming my bags I headed outside to
wait for the hotel’s free shuttle to the airport. I boarded the bus
about 10 minutes later. The bus was on its way within about 5 minutes.
While the traffic to the airport including I-15 seemed fairly heavy we
were at the airport in about 20 minutes or so. The bus made one at the
international terminal and then one stop for passengers on USScarways
before stopping for my airline Allegiant at 2:20pm.
My flight to Casper, WY was scheduled to leave at 4:15pm, so I had
plenty of time to check-in and make it through security. The lines at
the Allegiant counters where very short, especially in comparison to
the other airlines like United. This meant that I was checked in with-
in a few short minutes and ready to head upstairs to clear security.
The lines for D gates security did not look all that bad and I made it
through with-in about 10 minutes or so. That included the extra time
needed for a TSA officer to check my laptop.
After clearing security I found my gate and then set out to find a
snack to eat. Then after finishing my Cinabon I headed back to my gate
where I decided to use my laptop to start this report. I got lucky and
found a seat near a pay phone bank that had an AC outlet, so I was
able to reserve my battery power for the flight home.
My flight was scheduled to board at 4:15pm and we were told at 4:05pm
that we would begin boarding, as soon as the flight crew gave the
okay. Looked like we might leave a little early, but that did not turn
out to be the case.
Shortly after the first message I noticed that the gate agent was
shacking her head while speaking to another employee. Then she came
over the PA to inform us that the aircraft at our gate would not be
used for this flight and that we would have to wait for another
aircraft. In about another 15 minutes or so she again came on the PA
to announce that we would be using an aircraft at the gate next to us,
as soon as it landed and was off loaded. We later were told that would
happen at about 5:15pm or so, but it was later than that by about 30
minutes or so.
Boarding for this flight began at 5:40pm and seemed to go smoothly. At
about 6:05pm we pushed back and then were in the air at about 6:15pm
(I guessing they were at 3rd or 4th in line to take off). This flight
took slightly less than 2 hours from wheels up to wheels down.
I was seated in 7A on the MD80 aircraft. Despite there being many
empty rows of seats on this flight someone was seated next to me, but
she mowed just before push back. Just after push back the captain came
on apologized for the delay and then were told that something on the
other plane was broke. The flight was very smooth, other than some
bumps while passing through the clouds during descent.
I was very tired, so I tried to sleep during the flight, but as usual
this did not happen. I was tempted to pull out my laptop, but instead
just set there enjoying the silence. Seemed, as though everyone else
was tired to.
We landed in Casper at just 9:0pm to waiting room filled with not so
happy looking passengers. Shortly after landing I was on my way home.
Below it the flight information I found at Flightview.com.
