They made me a little worried about whether or not I would be able to get on the flight, but I think I was at a higher priority than other standby passengers, but I&#8217;m not sure how their system works.  It was a CRJ-900, which is the first I&#8217;d seen.  I actually thought it was a 700 at first, then realized it seemed a little bigger.  Otherwise, no real difference from the passenger&#8217;s perspective, and I&#8217;m sure I&#8217;ll find out more from the pilot&#8217;s perspective all too soon.<\/p>\n<p>There are no obvious restaurants in walking distance and the hotel restaurant looks pricey.  $15 dinners could add up after awhile.  There may be something in walking distance I&#8217;ll discover after doing some investigating.<\/p>\n<p>I asked the front desk how many of us there were, and she said she wasn&#8217;t sure, but there were, &#8220;A lot&#8230;  I want to say at least 30 or so.&#8221;  Which, assuming there&#8217;s some people not staying at the hotel would make for a rather large class, I&#8217;d think.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m here, at the Radisson Hotel.
