A few hours later, United pushed the flight time up by 2 hours, which would make it arrive at 8:49AM, therefore giving me only two hours to get my bags, run from Domestic to International, find my Birthright group, go through security again&#8230; blrh. Would not have been fun or feasible. Just my luck to buy a ticket mere hours before its time is moved&#8230;<br \/>\nSo I called Priceline up and despite United&#8217;s &#8220;no refunds&#8221; policy, they were able to refund my ticket. I then used them to get another (even cheaper) flight that arrives at 7:50AM. Hooray Priceline!<br \/>\nOn an unrelated note, I recently realized that I&#8217;d do really well as an advertising guy. I talk about cool companies and stuff all the time. I mean I did once sort of work for a guerilla marketing company.
