Off to Denver
We parked in the A Terminal garage where they were plenty of empty spaces. Inside the terminal, eeriily empty and very quiet.
There goes that brilliant idea. LOL.
OK, so that's where everyone is.
Happy to have PreCheck.
Our isopropyl alcohol wipes.
And we're off with the always fun steep climb out of John Wayne. With the sun finally out.
From reports I'd read, I really had no expectations about service of any kind, but I was really pleasantly suprised and amazed. It helps to have a great FA and our Purser was wonderful. Open bar service albeit with plastic cups which is perfectly fine these days.
And then the surprising Snack Box...
... which was much better than what UA served on this route pre-Covid.
Time to check out United Wifi. LOL. Not at those prices.
We landed early but for some reason parked in the A gates which mean it took forever for the jet bridge GA to come over from B and connect us. Deplaning was orderly front to back, with everyone asked to stayed seating until our row was called.
We lucked out as our Avis bus pulled up as we arrived at the RAC island.
Yeah, not much action at Avis today with a rather empty Preferred list.
As Avis Presidents Club member, the cool Avis let me select my upgrade. If you don't like the selection, just keep refreshing it. Et voila, nice big Chevy Tahoe for our drive to the mountains. Although it did take me a while to find the Y aisle.
We got to the kids' house and just after 6pm and relaxed before walking up the street to Tables, a very nice local restaurant.
