Miyagi-Do Karate Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 This happened on a flight once when I was a kid. The pilot said, “we are 15 minutes from landing in Rochester, NY.” Some lady jumped up and started a big scene and said, “I thought we were going to Rochester, Minnesota.” The rest of us burst out laughing. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not at the table Karlos Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 Sounds more like a private flight that the pilot screwed up more than Moss getting on wrong plane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually wanted Bradley, which puts out a lot of commercial flights. About a 40 mile drive to Bristol, Connecticut. Flight Aware shows a fair amount of the westbound traffic over my place is Bradley originated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albany,n.y. Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 When I was out in California, we drove through Albany California and I was looking for a portal that could save me a full day of flying, but unfortunately I never found it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marv's Neighbor Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 Not unusual to see people with "accents" to end up in the wrong place. Was that Dallas OR Dulles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whites Bay Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 There actually was an incident a few years back (10+) in which a passenger thought they were going to "Oakland", when the flight was heading to "Auckland". The poor SOB took a 13+ hour transpacific flight. Guess the airline put him in up in a hotel, and schlepped him back within 24 hours. That hurts just thinking about it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sherpa Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 One of the things I'll not forget in my career was a similar story. Flew the last leg of the day from Chicago to Providence, a 727. I'm at the door saying goodbye, and at the very end of the passengers is this really tiny Mexican guy, about 5'2". He has a little carry on bag in his hand and hes says: "Mexico Ceety?" We got him a hotel and got him out the next day. One gate over. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything is possible, but I really doubt it. If it wasn't a private flight, it sounds like security may need to be checked at the airport's again. You would think with all the supposed security for flights that it would be impossible to just end up on the wrong flight without someone noticing and stopping it. Atleast he wasn't carrying any large bottles of shampoo or water with him.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you believe that even though ESPN in the talking heads contract, includes commercial flights in and out of CT, Moss chooses to be flown in privately? I don't know, so I am asking...any idea how much a private flight would cost? Edited November 4, 2019 by LabattBlue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t believe anything and don’t really care either way. IMO by the way the story was told it sounds more like a private flight because of the conversations with the pilot. But he’s Randy Moss he could have been in first class right near them and got special treatment. Private flights are around $4k an hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Augie Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 Good thing he’s rich.....those airport bars are EXPENSIVE! After a rugby tournament in Savannah, GA all the guy were flying out to various locations. One guy got so drunk in the airport bar we put him in a wheelchair and told the flight attendants he’s been hit in the head in the tournament (HUGE event, they knew about it). Put him on his flight to Chicago and all was well.......except he didn’t wake up until Milwaukee. Oops! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
