We're going in First Class!

Flying out of Kalispell has its obstacles. The major one is there are only a certain number of flights out and in. So we got up at 5:00 this morning to catch the 7am flight out to the Delta hub in Salt Lake City.

Lee got a great deal on a Hawaiian vacation several months ago. We promised Chrissie that we would go see her (or else her middle child syndrome would drown her!)

Besides who would pass up a trip to Paradise?

Unfortunately, Lee developed the what I lovingly call, the "Crooked Man" syndrome. His low back had been hurting for the last 6 weeks and it really got BAD the last few days. Fortunately for Lee, he was able to get in to see his fabulous physical therapist Julie Corwin. She works wonders! But he still was crooked and in pain. His doctor was able to call in a couple of prescriptions for him and we picked it up yesterday.

In Salt Lake, Lee became worried about the long flight to Hawaii, squashed into some small center aisle seat. So we were able to upgrade to First Class!

This is the first time either of us flew First Class. Boy, do they treat you right.
We got complimentary Mai Tai's right away, complimentary food, soft drinks, head phones and problably more alcoholic beverages if we had wanted them. Yeah, all you have to do is pay more $$$ to get this treatment.

FYI, it's a lot cheaper to upgrade at the gate!
