I was in the Dominican Republic, stuck in an all-inclusive with my sister, riding out Irma. Our flights out were cancelled. We obtained new return flights.

I received a call from AA at 3 in the morning, just before we were to take our new return flights, telling me that they had a return seat for me. But not for my sister. I have a Jewish last name. My sister is Ortiz.

We spent another three days there, paying hundreds more in dollars, because I refused to leave without her.
