Help me with my flight info!



Recommended Posts

I'm trying to schedule a flight to San Diego right now for surgery. Do I choose San Diego SAN or San Diego MYF (Montgomery Field). I'm pretty sure it's SAN.

Also alma (going with Dr. Garcia) made it sound like when they drive you back to the airport that they will only pick you up after 9am so I'm having a hard time finding a flight back that does not involve an all night flight. I mean one leaves at 1:51pm so I would get back to my airport after midnight.

Delta and dang my flight costs me 843 dollars!!! I wish i could have booked my flight earlier but i didn't have the money until now. I also checked hotwire etc. but the times I needed to leave and return were more expensive on those sites than through Delta.

Try Southwest. I flew home through them and I like their flight schedules. 3 hour flight. 1 hour layover which makes good walking/stretching. Three hour flight to home. Not counting my heart issues and Denver blizzard!

Mine is an 8 hour flight with one layover each way. Southwest was not even an option at my airport. I

Bummer that. AirTran is affiliated with Southwest. Idk if they're an option.

Would it be possible to get a hotel stateside for the night l so you have more departure flexibility?

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
