Stupid Airlines!

Tonight I was checking my flight status in light of the volcano in Iceland. My flight is on schedule (as of now), but I noticed my seat assignment was blank. I bought my ticket months ago with my friend, Hannah, so we could sit together, so I was slightly freaking out about a blank seat assignment. U.S. Airways wanted me to either accept or reject this change in my flight, so I promptly clicked reject and was told to call the number provided. After waiting on the phone 25 minutes, I finally spoke to someone. The lady said U.S. Airways changed aircrafts for this flight, and I guess all the seating assignments were divvied up without me being notified of this whatsoever. So now I have a new seat assignment, and I have no idea if Hannah and I are sitting together. I called her tonight, but she didn’t have access to computer. We decided we’ll figure it out tomorrow, and I hope everything works out! I am allowed to go online and look at the airplane layout and view all the available seats, and there are some still together. Hopefully, it will be the same tomorrow. I am mad because we had good seats before (not too far back and isle and window seats so we weren’t crammed in-between strangers), but now who knows.

I am just irked at the moment. I know this is a minor bump in my study abroad experience, but I am still stressed. Hopefully, we figure everything out tomorrow! Oh and also, another change was made to my flight. I don’t even get a meal anymore. This is an 8 hour, overnight flight. Complete BS!
