Today's flight was a very big sign that winter has given way to spring. Our flight time was set for only 5:26 heading to Los Angeles. We were planned to get in about 25 minutes early. The loss of the winter jet stream had that kind of impact on us. That just means that we will have to hustle tomorrow going back east to stay on time.
We had a full load this morning, but sat on the gate for a few minutes as the ramp had cleared a plane (that called after we did) to push in front of us. Other than that it was a short taxi out and we were off. Turbulence was the name of the game today. We hit it over Columbus and it continued until we were just east of Denver. Once we cleared the Rockies it was a nice ride the rest of the way into LAX.
Getting in early of course, our gate was occupied. We waited about 15 minutes before the gate was available then parked on time. A good 45 minutes down to Long Beach for the layover. This weekend happens to be the Long Beach Grand Prix. I shot this video coming back from dinner. This is just a couple of blocks from the hotel.
Tomorrow morning isn't terribly early as I'm on east coast time, but it will probably be dark when we leave the hotel.
