The waiting game

[hrymfaxe]

Despite all your kind wishes for a safe journey.. At this time I was supposed to sit on the airplane to Denmark with my friend and her baby daughter... Only I'm still in Uummannaq, because today the clouds are so low, that the plane couldn't land to pick us up from the helicopter. At least we could just go back home to my friends and wait. Now we have been told that we will be flown to Ilulisat in two hours. Hopefully (fingers crossed) we can then fly to Kangerlussuaq tomorrow and catch the plane to Denmark.. However, once you are delayed you get moved to the back of the line, and must wait for available seats. Perhaps the fact that we are travelling with an infant will get us moved ahead. This may seem like slightly bad news, but if we don't get to Ilulisat today, we can't go to Denmark until Monday at the earliest!! O_o! Even in Africa, this didn't happen to me... I would enjoy the experience more, except for the little baby, who didn't need this.

ETA: So, we are cancelled for today... If we are lucky, we can get to Denmark Saturday, but right now we are looking at Monday at the earliest.. Luckily we are still at home and not in some god forsaken airport!

Darn... Sorry to hear that Hon. Please take care, and let me know when you're back.

Poor little one :(

I wouldn't mind the extra day(s), if only I wasn't sitting on stand-by waiting for news.. It seems now that they have cancelled the plans again.. It is only Air Greenland who services Greenland, and it is quite a puzzle to solve when something like this happens. Fingers crossed for being home tomorrow evening. :)

Greetings to you too! And thank you for your kind words and interest. Of course you can friend me, and I'll friend you right back. :)
Ah yes, the flight troubles... I'm still in Greenland, and could obviously be stuck in a worse place, but it would be nice to have some sort of idea for when I'll get home.
