The group of 5 people joining on this trip will henceforth be known as “the Canadians.” We landed in Quito around 11pm and got through customs in an hour, nearly crushing people to death on the escalator notwithstanding. I kid. Sadly, the Canadians lost 4/5ths of their check bags. Super unclear where and when they will see them again. Our flight was nice! AO partied with flight attendants, LB took a nap, and I upgraded.
