LGA-MCO in a day

Flew to Orlando, FL today to meet with our new accountant. Why our accountant is in Florida is a long story involving citrus which I just can't get into right now, however some notes from the trip:

  • If you are flying out of LGA and your flight leaves at 8:00 a.m., you'd best get into the security line long before 7:40 a.m. If you do get into the security line 20 minuets before your flight and whine that you're about to miss your flight I will glare at you, harshly.
  • If you are at LGA and are trying to push your way past others who have been quietly standing in the security line, claiming that you have an 8:00 a.m. flight and you've been in the airport since 6:00 a.m., again you will be glared at harshly, and I may also snicker at you.
  • Lesson: leave at least twenty minutes to get through the security at LGA's Terminal B D gates.
  • On arriving in Orlando, understand that a firehose will be sprayed at you nearly non-stop for the duration of your stay. This is apparently called sunny weather.
  • Orlando does not have an Admiral's Club.
  • Said lack of Admiral's Club would not be a problem if your flight left on time. Ours was pushed from 7:35 p.m. to 11:something p.m. before snapping back to an 8:40 p.m. boarding for 9:10p.m. departure. Something about weather in New York or missile testing off the East Coast, or both.
  • The distance from the food court to the American gates is just enough to be a pain to walk quickly with bags and freshly greased food, but close enough to make it and cause everyone to glare, harshly, at your fresh French Fries.
