Epic return

YMMV

People rave about both. I would personally not go back to Blue Dragon. It was very mid.

Atlantic is beautiful and the overworked server did the best she could. Food issues arose at the time and they, too, did the best they could to rectify them. The filet was solid: I’ve had much worse elsewhere. The desserts are creative and fun. Maybe I would go back?

How was Oak Star Tavern? Epic Day 1 I’ve got 1pm Blue Dragon and 9pm Bar Helios to watch the 940pm fountain show from up there. Epic Day 2 I was planning Cafe L’air de la Sirene for lunch and Atlantic booked at 5pm so we can catch the sunset from there. Sounds like maybe redo the Blue Dragon to Pizza Moon but if Atlantic is what made people sick?

I like it. Especially when they have the live music.

Excellent decision: but time it right. It gets really backed up at conventional meal times.

Expensive but good and the show has to be seen from above for maximum effect.

I personally would do that.

We can’t know for sure. And if there was a regular problem word would be out. I think we were unlucky. Maybe avoid the crab claws!

I planned for Lobster Roll, fingers crossed!

Yup this is why from Bar Helios I wanted to do it. I think it might have been your first trip where I learned that? Was it you that mentioned seeing the whole park lighting up in conjunction with the songs/area.

Yeah. I did ground level at the fountain amphitheatre and from Bar Helios. Much prefer the elevated view: it’s spectacular.

So JetBlue, which I already told you is the worst airline I have ever dealt with, has announced that our aircraft is out of service. They are looking for another one.

My London flight departs Boston at 8pm. It is currently 12.30pm. It takes about 3-3½ hours to fly to BOS from MCO.

I called Virgin who are the airline for the BOS-LHR leg. They said they didn’t care and it sucks to be me.

The gate agent told me to call JetBlue. For some reason my phone won’t let me do that. I’m in a queue for an online chat with them.

When was that ever not the case?

Meanwhile the JetBlue app says my flight is departing on time.

Logan still shows that flight on time too. There is one that lands at 6:44. Can you get on that one?

JetBlue is always delayed from MCO to Boston.

The app currently says this:

But the gate agent has said nothing and it feels like a lie.

The later flight would be cutting it close, but there’s a gamble. Maybe they will find a new plane. Soon. Helpfully they are keeping their plans secret.

That’s not a bad delay for JetBlue but it may be a lie. I have spent many afternoons sitting at Wine Bar George waiting for updates.

It was a lie. It is now 1.20pm and we are all in the lounge. It has been replaced with a new “estimate” of 2.20pm. The issue is a maintenance one. The plane is here. It just doesn’t work.

Was not the crab claws. I am allergic to crab claws or anything from water. We all got sick but I’m the only one who didn’t eat seafood. My money is actually on the dessert. Just a fluke really.
