Our plane rides (plural) included . . a PLUS and a MINUS
The "PLUS" was an unexpected EXTRA leg ( 4th one )
. . taking us . . to Bologna, Italy
the only flight that had 2 seats available !!
The 65 minute cargo transfer time between planes from . . leg 2 Detroit > Amsterdam
to . . leg 3 Amsterdam > Casablanca
was cut short by very crowded runway traffic
to . . leg 3 Amsterdam > Casablanca
was cut short by very crowded runway traffic
Since our 2 bags (and everyone else's who needed transfer)
were not yet moved onto Air Moroc
airline policy would not let us board our 3rd and final leg
We joined the multitudes in line wondering about this 'Plan B'.
Plan B turned out to be an extra jaunt . . leg 3 Amsterdam > Bologna (Italy)
before . . boarding leg 4 Bologna > Casablanca
Long story short
we got to our Casablanca hotel
( not in early afternoon . . but . . )
just before midnight
Moroccan Standard Time

The connection time in Bologna was . . even shorter ( 55 minutes )
They put "us" on anyway disregarding the policy that our bags must travel with us . .
No bags . . when we got to Mohammed Airport
We hope to get them tomorrow - ( round trip by train to / from airport ) . .
if the one daily 8:30 p.m. flight from Italy . . brings them tonite
