It\u2019s the final day of my 2020 Utah trip, I would be taking Southwest flight 1286 back to Baltimore.
\nThis would actually be my 100th flight.<\/p>\n

\"Great<\/a>

<\/br>Great Salt Lake<\/p><\/div>\n

I managed to get a few hours of sleep after checking into the Airbnb room the previous night, located in the southern suburb of Salt Lake City. My flight this morning was the only direct flight between Salt Lake City and Baltimore, despite it departed at a miserable 7am (as far as I recall, none of the connecting flights had a more appealing schedule)<\/span>. So I had to check out of the room at 4:30am, after which it was a smooth 20-minute drive to the car rental store in downtown Salt Lake City. After that, it was another 20-minute wait for the only Lyft car in town that early to pick me up, as I watched the driver finishing his previous ride, unsurprisingly, to the airport.<\/p>\n

Then there\u2019s the worst part. I arrived at 5:26am, 94 minutes before departure, to an unmanned Southwest counter with meandering lines. A few minutes later, a few employees “slowly” showed up, stress on “slowly” as contrary to the uneasy mood for the crowd in line.
\nEventually everybody made it to the plane on time, as there’s no delay with security.<\/p>\n
