my husband and i were flying to lax from bwi with our daughter that was on 6 weeks old it was her first big trip anywhere. we were going to visit my husband family in california. before we moved to germany. we had no idea what was going on all the pilot told us was there were two terrorist attack and we were force to land in kansa. when you landed the airport was a mess people not knowing what was going on and people crying. my husband and i tried to call california and back to dc where we lived to see if we needed to cancel our trip but all the phone were busy. so we got our things and tried to find a hotel as we were waiting for a hotel out in front of the bar in the airport people were watching the news about the attacks it was unbeleivable. the line for the hotels that the airline helps everyone to get was unreal so my husband and i find a hotel room on our own. with all the people being upset my daughter was get upset too so we need to get her away from all the drama. we had to stay in a hotel for two day and on sept 13 they let was continue our flight. on sept 11 our flight had 113 people and one infant. when we continue in sept 13 we had 37 people and one infant. sounds crazy does it. after that day i will never be afraid to fly ever.
