Orig Trip
DH JFK-ATL, 12 min turn they found 20 magic, unrealistic MI to claim legal MCT.
ATL-SJU, layover

SJU-ATL
ATL-MIA, layover

FLL-ATL
DH ATL-LGA
Ground DH JFK

I DDH'd EWR-ATL and ATL-EWR front/back

Day 1/2 went more or less as planned minus time lost due to unrealistic connection times.

Day 3, taxiiing in at ATL. ACARS starts printing. They won't park me until I acknowledge.

Now Day 3
FLL-ATL
RR ATL-MCO after 3 hour sit (there were 5+ on SC in ATL)
25 min connection to MCO-JFK DH
Denied boarding.
RR to MCO-LGA DH
Denied boarding.
Call DP. Crew tracking was useless.
supposed to have ground DH to JFK. Nothing. No van. No answer from crew accommodation. Skyhop had nothing. (Friend had car at JFK he gave me the door code for)
Wife drove in at 1am to get me.

Stopped at EWR to get my truck. Finally home at 4am.

Then up at 8am to watch Hockey.

Too late to get on last train home or to EWR. Uber from LGA was showing 1+ hours to pickup to take me either home or EWR employee lot.

"Thank you for all you do"

If I wasn't denied boarding it would have been annoying but airtrain to Jamacia, LIRR to Penn, NJTransit to EWR, home by 10-11.
