Jecca drove us to Logan in the morning with amazingly little traffic. There we were with 2 fairly small bags each! And, Mark had already printed our boarding cards. We had to walk to Terminal B (from E) as American Airlines leaves from there, even though we booked our flight through British Air. At any rate, we went through security incredibly quickly. (10 minutes) Then - after an iced coffee, we went directly to the gate.
There were only about FORTY PEOPLE on the entire plane - a 757. So, we were very well taken care of and, for much of the flight, we stretched out in separate rows - 3 seats each. There was NO turbulence, which was a relief as Barbara is a nervous flier.
Everything was on time. We breezed through British customs as there was NO line at all. Ken was there to pick us up with next-door-neighbor John. John drove the M-4 right through London so we had a great tour right away.
Flying during the day is fabulous. We arrived in London at 8:30 at night, which was only 4:30 to us. (The U.S. 'sprang ahead', but Europe doesn't adjust their clocks for 2 more weeks.) So, we had a lovely reception in West Wickham with Chris and Ken and got to bed around midnight in London, but it was only 8 to us. It must have been our easiest flight ever.
