On a plane sitting on the tarmac at Philly. Flight to Dallas was scheduled to take off at 8:47 am. We were third in the queue when the skies were shut down.
Here's a little side note: American Express wanted me to pay for the ticket even though the plane never took off. "You have to remit your unused ticket sir, or else we have to charge you." "They took my ticket when I boarded the flight," I responded. "Then you were on the flight and are responsible for either paying for the flight or returning the ticket." Took months and escalation to my company's travel agent for those bozos to stop insisting I must pay. I still have the boarding pass. And more insight into how we still don't have all the story.

Fun way to wake up, watching the Twin Towers being knocked down on television and not having any idea what I was seeing until days later.
