It was actually quiet crazy how they managed. It was such a surprise when they had got the news too. Almost too good to believe. But yet, there they were, all 19 of them, sitting in the waiting chairs. The group took up most of the space and not to mention their habit to burst in to spontaneous song all together. Other people were getting quiet annoyed. But they were in such a good mood that no annoyed person could kill their joy. The group was laughing and singing and chatting it up. As much as most of the company were teenagers, there were 4 adults with them. And they were having a bit of trouble keeping order in the frenzy of hyper and excited teens. But really, everyone was so happy. Yes, New Directions was headed to Florida. They managed to get enough money several ways. Mr. Motta funded a lot of it, happy to do so now that his daughter was in the group and happy too. They also got a bunch of money from the school, taken out of the cheerleaders ridiculous budget when the principal finally put a stop to the cheerleading coach's crazy expenses. Finally, the music fund that they normally got was increased and when the teacher in charge of the group calculated their expenses for the year, they had a significant amount left over. But that alone wasn't completely enough. Each person going on the trip had to pay about $100. They also managed to get a gig singing at a fancy hotel for several days in Orlando, so the manager gave them a discount on rooms. Lastly, they got a really great deal on the condos they were renting in Fort Meyers. All together, the group that only used to dream of fancy warm trips like such, were now going on one all together. It was really special for them all, especially the ones who were in their senior year.

"Now boarding for flight 929 to Florida" the call came over the loud speaker. A cheer erupted from the 19 people waiting.

"Okay guys let's keep a nice line and remember: no singing on the plane, please!" A man with curly hair and a sweater vest stood up and called to the rest of the group. Then nodded and grabbed their carry-ons. The ladies at the desk near the boarding door looked worried as 15 teenagers rushed to make the line, all with huge grins on their faces. They all got out their passports and tickets and waited anxiously in line as one by one they were allowed on the plane. Finally, they were all checked and in the plane. Gasps, screeches and laughs were heard all around as they picked their seats.

"Window seat!" the call was heard from several people.

"Isle!" other cried loudly.

"Just sit!" the sweater vest man yelled as he plopped into his seat. "Remind me why I agreed to this?" he asked the red headed lady who sat next to him. She laughed but didn't answer the question, as it was obviously rhetorical.

Forty minutes later, everyone was seated. All the other passengers had come in too and everyone was ready to go.

"Hello, this is your captain speaking. Welcome to flight 929 headed to Fort Meyers in Florida. The flight will be about two and a half hours. Thank you for flying with us!" the captain said over the plane's intercom. Some of the teens clapped and the sweater vest man shot them a glare.

The flight attendants showed them what to do in case of an emergency and then they were all set to take off. One teenager, a short Asian girl dressed in black handed out gum.

"They stop your ears from popping as we take off" she explained and everyone took it graciously.

Finally the plane started moving. Then it drove onto the runway.

"Here we go!" a guy with a mohawk said as the plane sped forward. Then the plane was in the air and they were on their way.
