I've always thought it would be interesting to travel a lot for work. Sure, it would be great to travel to a different state or country to conduct business, but it would probably get really old pretty darn fast.

As an adult, I usually only fly on occasion for certain reasons. Most of those reasons are a vacation. So if something happens such as a flight delay, it doesn't disrupt my everyday life.  A flight delay to start my vacation would be pretty inconvenient, however.

Honestly, I would rather have my flight delayed for a few hours than risk taking off or landing in less-than-ideal weather conditions at Denver International Airport. A couple of years ago when returning home from vacation, we had to divert our flight to Dallas at the last minute due to wind shear. Needless to say, it was one of those plane rides that I will never forget. At least, we made it home safely, the next day.
