My Haines Florida Experience
Airplane experience
While my son was testing, I had to go to Haines Florida as I use to live in Florida, I had to come back to NYC due to circumstances. I flew in with American Airlines and I book all my flights through Priceline, I love their packages. I booked my car rental, hotel and plane tickets through Priceline.

My airplane ride was through American Airlines. My flight to get from LaGuardia NYC to MCO Florida was great. The airplane attendants and pilots were pretty nice, the ones that work in the airport a bit ruff around the edges.

Coming back from MCO in Orlando Florida to LaGuardia NYC there was a tornado that had just happened as I was driving to the airport. The airport had to shelter people in place, and I knew this because I got the alert as I was driving near the airport.

Being to the sheltering in place security was packed and there was a lot of lies and miss information from security. Myself, and a lot of others did notice the line was long and asked security if we should get of the line and go get a later flight. Security responded to stay on the line and that there would be an agent inside, that agent can reschedule our flights.

To our surprise we spend like 1 hour on the line to get through security to then go all the way back to do it all over again. Thousands of people got put on stand by due to miss information from the security staff. I had my son which is 12 years old which made me mad, I had woken up at 3:00 am to hit the road and we didn’t arrive home into like 12 am.

All day in an airport for a national flight. I don’t think the situation was handled well and the staff was so rude in the airport as if they were paying for our flights.

I didn’t like MCO international airport at all. The whole security staff and even information were super mean. I have this quote I follow “if you can’t treat me with respect, then you don’t need my money”. The staff on that work for the airplane’s companies are great but the ones for the airport, gave me the worst experience and it’s the first time my son had to experience me having to deal with racism which, I was so exhausted, I really didn’t handle it well. Also, they had us all crowded in the middle of a pandemic, that’s not a good idea. Will I keep flying, yes, but I’m switching Airlines and I’m never taking a fight From MCO no more.
