I was planning to have one more thoughts in transit but I fell asleep and didnt have time to add another lengthy blog. Let me just summarize what happened trying to get here:
On the way to the airport i learned my flight to vancouver at 12 was cancelled. I got to the airport and had to rebook the next flight to vancouver for 2. Unfortunately the plane intended for the 2 o clock flight was switched to a smaller plane so the only option for people with seats higher than 39 was to take the next flight at 6. My seat row was 41... fortunately for me i had to take the 2 o clock or else i would miss my flight to auckland from vancouver. I took the flight got to vancouver and had 1 hour in between to get to the next flight. I got to the boarding area showed my ticket. And they told me i couldnt board because one way tickets werent allowed. I moved aside waited a bit. Double checked my whv papers and showed them the part where it said i could get a one way ticket and they let me through. Clutch!
When booking the flight I tried to get the shortest layover time in vancouver (4 hours) but i realized that it would have been way better if i took the longest layover time to make time for me to get out of the airport and check out vancouver for a bit. Lesson learned.
