My mom had a meeting at noon so she dropped my sister and i off at SYR at 11:30AM for our 2:30PM flight. We went right to the B6 counter and where checked in within 3 minutes.. because there was no one on line. After that we walked down to the old part of the airport where they used to have the check in counters when they had to temporarily had to move them last summer and over last winter. We then went to the new security screening area. The old airport had two security screening areas and then you went into two separate concourses. For about a year they have been renovating the airport and making it one centralized security checkpoint, from there you can go to the two separate concourses. To the right of security is B6,AA,US and AC. On the other side is UA and DL. Once you go through the new security they have a whole area with huge windows looking over the alley between the two concourses. The one thing they forgot is there is usually only one or two planes at SYR so there really isnt a lot to see. They have a few new food places but the only good thing about the new airport is you can walk between the two concourses besides that they spent millions on the new airport and it really isnt anything great.. anyway once we where through the checkpoint we went over to the UA and DL side and saw 2 ERJ-145 planes one to DTW one to ORD.
This is the B6 counter

After watching flight 3817 to ORD push out from ORD.. we walked back over to the other side and saw a few other planes.. there where 2 Dash 8-100s going to PHL.. i walked down and watched one of the flights board and push back .. there where 3 FA's that needed to get to PHL but there was one seat left so the FA with the earliest show time went first. She kinda seemed like she was blonde even though she was a brunette. There was a weight issue with the plane and she had like 3 bags one had 4 waters in it and she didnt know how to consolidate her bag and was slowing everything down then she finally got down there then there was another problem and she had to come back up then she threw out the 4 waters and left a bag and went down and they closed the door and they pushed back.. Im not sure where she was going.. i knew one of the FA'S was going to TLV that night.

After heading to the B6 gate i had set up an alert on flightaware for our flight and i got a update and it said my flight was delayed 1 hour. It was good weather at SYR and JFK and i checked and flight 316 our inbound flight had already left JFK so i assumed it was an ATC delay when i got to the gate i asked the gate agent why it was delayed and she confirmed it was ATC.

Since we had an extra hour i went over and was surprised to see a DL A320 as flight#1092 to ATL

We left for the airport around 2:30 PM for our 5:00PM flight to SYR. Check in was pretty quick.. when we walked in there was a huge line but the good news it was for the Aer Linugs line and the line for B6 was not that long. We had a really nice guy for check in and he gave even more speed so we could go to the front of the security line..
JFK Tower
Before heading inside i took this picture of the ramp
B6 check in counter
Aer Lingus check in counter
It was a pretty quick security line and before long we where through security and on the way to get some lunch/dinner and then walk around and see what planes where at JFK this afternoon.
