We have made it to Salt Lake City. A long 11 1/2 hours in a coach seat, after the 3 hour flight to Paris. Our flight to Albuquerque leaves in about 90 minutes.

Unlike most people who were booked in business if they had business class air, we were put in coach and after multiple visits to destination services to try to rectify the situation, they did not offer us a solution. We're particularly annoyed since we bought business tickets instead of using miles for free or upgraded tickets. I can only imagine what a nightmare logistical problem they had to deal with and since the worst is over from a flight standpoint (and Brad has stopped frothing at the mouth...) we hope Regent will come through with something to make us feel better. I'd rather have gotten home than be left in limbo in Athens for several more days.

It was great seeing everyone on our little journey to nowhere.
