Only in Spain...

Mikko and I supposedly had a flight from Bilbao to Barcelona at 11:55 this morning.

At the airport, the flight billboard had boarding time listed as 18:20 with a big "Retrasado" (delayed) flashing on the screen. A typo of some sort? Surely the delay meant boarding was at perhaps 12:20.

But no. The flight had been delayed by over 7 hours!!!

Me: "Y porque esta retrasado?" (Why is it delayed?)

Check-in: "Una problema tecnica"

Me: "Que es?"

Check-in: "Habia que estar un avion, pero no esta."

(There was meant to be a plane, but it's not here.")

Only in Spain.
