Lol, what a day. 

I woke up to icing across co and UT and not a great outlook for 40g, sez, or even PGA. So i says hey let's book a flight to Vegas, it's about a toss up drive time according to Google between Las and phx so I book that this am for a 12.45 departure. 

 

We take off on the a320 and had a weird buffet on climb out. I notice he levels off quick and pulls the speed back and tell the wife we're probably returning to the field

 

Yep, we land. Then stop on the runway and wait a half hour for a tug because they lost nose wheel steering. Tug gets there, pulls us at 3mph the 4 miles to the terminal. Get most of the way there, after another half hour of driving, tug can't pull us up a hill. Wait a half hour for a bigger tug. Another 20 mins and we hit the terminal. Everyone off, to another gate, board a new plane, 3 hours late we hit Vegas and drive the 4 hours to where I could have landed 12 hours ago if the weather had cooperated.

 

Oh and there was a semi on fire in the middle of nowhere AZ along the highway

 

What a weird effing day
