    Apparently resolved.

    Maybe the gods have decided I’ve had enough travel nightmares in the past three weeks

        What's the old saying?

        "The dildo of karma rarely arrives lubed."

        "Now look here, you Baltic gas passer... " - Mik, 6/14/08

        The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

          I’m sitting in Newark airport, which I generally try to avoid, but United has a nonstop to Naples and no one else does.

          This is the same United that didn’t deliver my bag coming back from Munich. Still missing since 8/26.

          I’ve never outright lost a bag before. They always got them to me in a day or three on the few times I lost one.

          This could be a first.

          By the way I’m not checking a bag today. I packed light.

          I have been lucky. In all my travels, I have only had a bag delayed one time, and it was delivered the next day.

          I have purchased Air Tags and put one of those in my check suitcase when I travel now. I think it would be helpful if ever the bag goes missing.

            I did too, after that loss. I carried the bag on the flight, and still used an AirTag. That’s how traumatized I am. Lol

              I just got a note from Lufthansa, they found my bag and are forwarding it to Newark!

                I caught that email as I take a quick stop for lunch - in Pompei. Can’t complain about my day.

                      A great lifetime friend married a Neapolitan girl while n the Navy. She's a delight and can cook up a storm.

                      So, are you biking or driving?

                        Bike. My big cape cod event is 2 weeks from Friday, so it’s an inconvenient time to be traveling for a week

                                  That is an excellent looking pizza.

                                        That's turning out to be a great gig for you, in pretty much every way. I'm glad.
