Couldn't find a late flight out on the 1st, so I'll have to leave around 1 or 2pm to get to the 5:35pm flight (depending on how far the airport is commute-wise). Should get in fairly early on the 22nd, though, probably get to the hotel around 1pm.

Whatever happened to the red-eye flights? Check out early, leave the bags at the front desk, have a goodbye dinner with friends then climb onto the plane to sleep. That's the way to maximise the benefit of a trip IMO... oh well, c'est la vie.
