Yep, enough said.
christyxcore on Jun 7th 2008 at 5:01 pmaww. yes, airports do suck.
they should give you special treatment! you’re, Justine!
Eric on Jun 7th 2008 at 5:01 pmgreat how if they’re inconvenienced by anything you’ve done it costs you money. but since you’re put out by a 2 hour wait, you get jack….
Treynj on Jun 7th 2008 at 5:01 pmAirlines seriously suck! they are RIDICULOUS! I agree with christyxcore…you ARE iJustine!
iGerard on Jun 7th 2008 at 5:01 pmYeah, I was screwed over $100 on AA at DFW for being over 1 lb. They wouldn’t even let me take something out or something. I feel your pain.
Ralph on Jun 7th 2008 at 5:01 pmHeh…reminds me of the wonderful fun I had flying back from SF back in April. I just looovvveee American Airlines! Ah well, it’ll be worth it when you finally get out there.
Jeff on Jun 7th 2008 at 5:01 pmNo peanuts OMG haha.
At least you weren’t stuck in Denver’s airport, bro was last week for 12 hours or so because they felt like it and had no clue why they were still there. And and they got stuck there on a sunday and they don’t serve liquor on Sundays so him and his buds had to find something else and someplace else to waste time. And even though it is an international airport everything was closed cept the Burger King in the middle of the place, at least he could get one of those awesome hats haha.
Anyways have fun in San Francisco Justine
Greg Wilker on Jun 7th 2008 at 5:01 pmI love the “I’m a preferred flyer… That will be another $200 for being a pain in my ass.” I lol’d a little.
dan1i on Jun 7th 2008 at 5:01 pmi agree with christyxcore aswell
lol
unlucky on the delay - make some hilariously random videos whilst you wait
RV510 on Jun 7th 2008 at 5:01 pmClearly this ticket counter has NOT meet eJustine.
Chris Anthony on Jun 7th 2008 at 5:01 pm@iGerard, I believe that’s a violation of American Airlines corporate policy, and may be a personal-rights violation. (They can’t accept the bag before they weigh it, they’re not allowed to deny you access to it before they’ve accepted it, and they’re only allowed to impose fees on accepted luggage.) Write a letter to the president and copy the VP of customer affairs, and include specifics.
I’m sympathetic to the airlines; according to AA’s VP of government affairs, they’re losing $3 million a day. But their new policies still suck for the travellers, especially when you pile them on top of the TSA’s policies and the airports’ design. (A new terminal? How about reworking an older terminal to accomodate those quarter-mile security lines, and to allow waiting non-passengers access to the restaurants &c.?)
Kenneth on Jun 7th 2008 at 5:01 pmInteresting. I never occurred any trouble related to airports/flights although I heard nasty stories.
bryanbro on Jun 7th 2008 at 5:01 pmyou could always lay over at my place.
cjeureka on Jun 7th 2008 at 5:01 pmGirlfriend…You are a talented comedian…Your timing…on the money….Have you ever tried standup?….Great night time fun….Do it!

cmlckies on Jun 7th 2008 at 5:01 pmugh, airlines. you should fly midwest—fresh, baked-on-board cookies. they can’t be beat.
Kayhan on Jun 7th 2008 at 5:01 pmyou think thats something…try being middle eastern LOL
hiLauren on Jun 7th 2008 at 5:01 pmD: oh poor ijustine!! at least the video is great!
mDot on Jun 7th 2008 at 5:01 pmSad but true. Airlines don’t hesitate to add and raise charges, but won’t improve their service one bit.
adam jackson on Jun 7th 2008 at 5:01 pmHey Justine.
As you now, Laura and I just moved to San Francisco (http://adamandlauragowest.com) and we sold everything we could and put the rest into bags. We checked EIGHT bags at the airport in Jacksonville. It costed us 400 EXTRA DOLLARS! I was ready for this because I checked ahead of time but just at tip. BTW, my martial arts staffs and sword bag counts as a ONE checked luggage. My gun case counted as another checked item. So I paid 75 dollars just for two small cases. Sigh
But we’re here in San Francisco, living in a furnished apartment now. I’m loving it and so is Laura!
JUSTINE CALL ME! WE HAVE TO DO LUNCH!
Jorge Jaime on Jun 7th 2008 at 5:01 pmYeah airports suck, specially when you’re moving. But awsome you’ll be in SF now!! I love that city…im planning to move there or at least really close soon.
josh on Jun 7th 2008 at 5:01 pmYea, ill be going to Maine in a couple of days.. and i hope my flight doesnt get delayed..
Justin on Jun 7th 2008 at 5:01 pmI generally love to fly and I was lucky enough last time not to have to pay the extra charge even though I was 1-2 pounds overweight. I try not to have checked baggage but sometimes you can’t avoid it.
I did have to wait once in an international airport for 24 hours when my flight was delayed then canceled and they didn’t have room for me on another flight and another time my flight was diverted to Germany when flying out of Kuwait to Ireland when one of the engines broke midflight but it is still the best way to travel.
shawnscript on Jun 7th 2008 at 5:01 pmOne of my more epic encounters while at an airport had to be the time I watched a report on flight delays on cnn…while experiencing a three hour flight delay
Gary on Jun 8th 2008 at 5:01 pmIJ,
Maybe you could have sent the extra bags via FEDEX or UPS, probably be less expensive.

Mostly Lisa on Jun 8th 2008 at 5:01 pmpeanut allergies are no joking matter. that’s why we all have to suffer and endure the worst thirst ever from eating so many small bags of super salty pretzels.
Michel F on Jun 8th 2008 at 5:01 pmUsually I’d say I LOOOOOOVE AIRPORTS… But in your case… yeah they suck.
Have a great flight.
I dont talk to strangers on Jun 8th 2008 at 5:01 pmZomg yes.. buy a small country.. Buy guam! Seriously.. who names a country guam.. crazy guamanians thats who.. lol.. guam.
GhostHost on Jun 8th 2008 at 5:01 pmWhen I flew First Class to Vegas 3 years ago they didn’t give me any crap. Of course, the RT Ticket was also in the neighborhood of $1,000.00. probably twice that now.
(The Real) Michael on Jun 8th 2008 at 5:01 pmI have the best idea to make some easy money and to save people time and a hassle… Set up a scale to weigh luggage outside of the airport, maybe in the parking lot, then charge a small fee for the service.
MattyLight on Jun 8th 2008 at 5:01 pmhaha, so very true! their regulations are getting ridiculous… eff the airlines
Jeff McCord on Jun 8th 2008 at 5:01 pmPoor nugget! That makes me wanna go slap your airlines’ ass.
Hang in there, my moxie lil’ friend! Hope you’ll be twittering your heart out at tomorrow’s WWDC event???!

iMarco_g on Jun 8th 2008 at 5:01 pmEpic face at the last frame ;D
I was on an US Airport last week (First trip ever to the states, yay) and the ppl were so unincredibly nice! I had 5 pound overweight on the luggage, and there were totally cool and told me that i maybe take some books out of my luggage into my handluggage.
If that happens here in holland, 1st. They laugh at you, 2nd. You pay 100$ (overrated)
AJM1240 on Jun 9th 2008 at 5:01 pmI don’t know if it’s there yet, but very soon it WILL be cheaper to Fed-Ex or UPS your bags to yourself.
EdgarJensen on Jun 9th 2008 at 5:01 pmWould’nt it be great to own a teleportation device? Then it would be possible to have eJustine send your luggage as an email attachment. Till then just have eJustine take highway 80 west and drive your luggage. Make sure she leaves about a week before your flight. I’d offer to keep her company but I’m just not sure I could haddle all that chitter chatter about the escalating costs of internet service, paperclips, and argyle socks.
Victor on Jun 9th 2008 at 5:01 pmI went through a lot of stuff about one month ago and I’m done flying for a while.
Scotty on Jun 10th 2008 at 5:01 pmLmao, Seriously justine, your not good for my health, you make me laugh toooo much
… haha i love it!! ..
Linus Ekenstam on Jun 11th 2008 at 5:01 pmthats so right justine… i love flying, but hate the bitches at the counters, love linus
steve ballmer on Jun 11th 2008 at 5:01 pmOh, I thought you were talking about the apple wireless thingy!
Apoorv Khatreja on Jun 16th 2008 at 5:01 pmDid they check your lappy for pirated things? Lisa is worried about that.
Gerrit on Jun 17th 2008 at 5:01 pmdid you get your lips done? do you earn enough with your activities that you can cover your expenses?
Terje on Jul 18th 2008 at 5:01 pmHow can you say that airports suck? They are great, but not on the terminal, along the runway is the place to be. I love planes!
