We've made the trip to Hamilton International Airport. We got word yesterday via e-mail that our plane will leave later and we now have a stop in Shannon along the way. Now we will leave at 10 pm Eastern and arrive in Dublin at 11 am. The people in the line ahead of us mentioned that they are supposed to be in Shannon for 9:30, so I expect a 40 minute layover. Oh yeah, Globespan is growing so fast that their leasing a plane and crew from Air Iceland. Should be interesting.
Globespan just started their Hamilton to Scotland and Hamilton flights this Spring. The person who took our bags said that every flight has been full so far. Interesting mix in the waiting room, a surprising number of the very elderly. I think these folks found out about it through the British Isles Show last winter (Globespan had a booth).
If this turns out to be a good way to go, I am thinking that we may travel to Europe through them. We can fly to Glasgow then take Ryanair to just about anywhere.
Speaking of which, they are following the Ryanair rule of refusing to issue a boarding pass to anyone showing up less than 45 minutes before takeoff. They'll be boarding shortly so I'll sign off.

This isn't really a comment. Shaundra and I are trying to figure out if you and Dave are going to be in MI on the 23? Hope Ireland is great. Don't want the kinda airplane excitement you had. That is a little too much excitement - Shaundra thinks so, too.
