I’m still in Costa Rica
Severe flooding kept me from getting to my flight today. They closed the bridge heading towards the airport and said it was going to be closed overnight (maybe until mañana afternoon); please note I did say “the” bridge and not “a” bridge. Surprisingly, they opened it after I abandoned my car and was going to walk over the bridge (pedestrians were allowed).
Anyone have any contacts at Delta? They still want to charge me a $150 change fee (I’ve called two different numbers at this point US and CR). If this wasn’t an “act of God” that should cover my fee then I don’t know what is. Once they get my $150 here at the airport I’m sure I’ll never see it again…
I’m booked in a hotel for the next two nights (no flights on Friday) and I want to be here (8 kilometers from airport).
I’ll do a “flood blog post” later, it’s gonna be a long one (home come this never happens when it’s sunny?). Wish I had taken more pictures now…
