We were heading to Orlando Florida for Disney from Philly airport, we got there at 8 for a 10:10 am flight, around 9:30 they announced that the flight was delayed until noon.  Then they announced later that it was delayed again until 1:30.  Then they finally announced that it was cancelled and that we should come up to the desk to help us with new accomidations.  My mom and sister luckily had been standing near there so they were about 4th in line, but the people in front of us took about 25 min just to set up things.  We finally get up there and the lady tells us that they want to put us on a plane to chicago( given this was when we had a big snowstorm coming in from the west that night so we would have been flying right into the storm and probably gotten stuck in chicago) then another connecting flight to dallas, then finally to orlando.  My mom obviously wasn't doing that, then our other choice was to wait there until 9pm for another flight to tampa and then have ground transportation at the airport to orlando which was about a 3 hour drive, given we had plans starting at 8am the next day.  Finally right before we were going to walk away and take a train or something they said they got a flight in for 4:30 to orlando.  Thank god for that, minus sitting in an airport all day, once we got on the plane it was filled with a bunch of tired and cranky kids heading to disney world, thank god it was only a 2 hour flight lol.

Being delayed due to fog going to Vegas cause me to have to rush the next day to get everything together in order to get married.  It was bad!

@SamiiSaysHaii@xanga - I take my niece pretty much everywhere I go she is just a natural traveler loves everything about it. Her passport is tattered and worn from use....But when she was a baby she hated to be buckled in or sit still so I only traveled with her by car so her screaming wouldn't bother anyone but us and we could stop and give her breaks whenever she needed one.

well it's a toss up between three flights:

1) 6 years old, on my way to Disney Land (from Chicago) -- it was my first flight and i had an unknown ear infection.  all i remember is i started screaming from the pain and the poor flight attendant looked helpless as she handed me a pillow and ice water.

2) 9 years old, my brother got food poisoning in Disney World and threw up the whole way back (what is it about Disney??).

3) 19 years old, seven-hour night flight to Austria (from Philly), with a severe migraine and a very, very talkative Turkish man.

but i think just with the mention of 16 hours, @echois23@xanga wins...
