Delayed, again!

This time, Northwest oversold the flight to Ottawa, and I got bumped. I'm going to have to fly by way of Montreal, getting in around 9:15pm, rather than the 3:30pm that I expected. *sigh* This has not been a good trip for arriving anywhere on time.

Where should I go?

So, due to the latest delay I have a free flight to anywhere I want in Canada or the US (Alaska and lower 48). The question is, where to go, and when?

Thoughts:
Denver for Worldcon.
Rock climbing somewhere exciting.
Where ever is most expensive on NW.

Northwest continues to screw me over

Likely arrival time in Ottawa: 12:05am. The plane for my flight from Detroit to Montreal was late getting in -- we were boarding about 1/2-3/4hr late, but I had a 1:30 transfer in Montreal, so I had some hope. You know, they could do a quick turn around, the pilot could drive a bit faster, and I could make it. But, no. For some reason, after all the passengers had loaded, we sat around at the gate for more than 1/2 an hour. I finally arrived in Montreal about when my flight to Ottawa was leaving. Joy. And, then I got to wait for my luggage to never show up. And it was slow even starting to show up. So, now when I get to Ottawa I'm going to have to do a lost luggage claim, too.

I am NOT a happy camper.

This trip has been, on the whole, pretty hellish, as far as the airlines portion of it goes.
