I head home today at 3pm from Victoria. I'm watching the Victoria Airport Authority website closely. By my count, 4 of every 5 flights from Victoria to Vancouver yesterday were cancelled. No reason stated of course. I know they are trying to get flights over there but why cancel them? Unless there's just no room on the runways right now? This morning, 1 in 3 departures for Air Canada have gone to Vancouver so I'm hopeful I'll get out. I wouldn't mind staying an extra couple of days but I just don't want to be stuck in the airport for any longer than I have to if my flight(s) are delayed or canceled. I'd rather know before I'm dropped off. But as Dad says, wish in one hand, piss in the other and see which one fills up first.
I'm optimistic despite all that though. Hopefully the Vancouver airport backlog will be cleared soon for all those people who have been waiting to fly out, and it'll be smooth sailing for my trip back to Ottawa. I don't work until Monday and am looking forward to the one day buffer I have before returning and starting back to work. It turns out that I was screened into a position at a higher level than mine and the written interview exam is on January 8. Wish me luck! I don't want the position but since I had the right qualifications it seemed a good idea to apply just in case, you never know.
