I will be telling you about my experiences during that time, and all that had happened. All of us all left to go to the airport at about 2PM, so we would have time to get there and get through security. We were not told that hour flight had been delayed for 5 hours! After we waited for hours, we eventually left Minneapolis Airport on…
