Well, would you look at the time! It's nearly 2012. How the year does fly when you're stuck in an airport waiting out every conceivable form of natural disaster -- or waiting for your air traffic controller to wake up and give you the go-ahead to land.
It's a wonder we ever found a free moment to lose all those games of "Words With Friends," or ponder the fate our AAdvantage miles! Oh yes, 2011 was an action-packed year for us traveling folk. Let's remember together, shall we?
