Bumped!

Today we were scheduled to fly home. But when we got to the airport we told them we'd be willing to give up our seats if the flight was oversold. It was! So, not only do we get an additional day playing here in Michigan, we each get a voucher for a free trip on United, PLUS they rescheduled us tomorrow in first class! How cool is that?!

Since Soren joined our family our travels have been slightly more challenging. Not only do we have one less income, but we also need to buy one additional plane ticket wherever we go. So whenever we fly now, we volunteer to be bumped just in case we can get free tickets. The most amazing part of all of this is that we are on the trip here on free tickets! And we got those tickets because we had been bumped another time. So, this is the third time on a trip to Michigan that we end up with free tickets. Free tickets on free tickets on free tickets. That is the way to travel!

Who knows...maybe we'll be able to get bumped tomorrow too...

  3. If possible I always volunteer to be bumped. It has worked several times for me too. What a great way to travel. I have to admit I have never actually been bumped on a free trip though. Good for you guys!
