We spoke to someone while waiting for the rental shuttle who knew someone on the flight crew of the flight mentioned that did divert. Apparently got on board drunk and proceeded to be quite sick, eventually the crew had enough. (The drunk - not the crew!)
I suspect our flight was very close to being diverted. Certainly the stewards became very firm and direct in the end.
As for Vegas. It's my first time over here. We've got our 9 year old daughter which is very restricting. While I'm not overly bothered about getting drunk, a beer in a bar would be nice.
Still it's all about our wedding in a few hours.... Then we're off to Florida to relax
