home safely

My mom has arrived Hong Kong safely. When she went up to the gate in Des Moines, they told her she missed her flight. They had anther flight that was about to take off to Chicago, so they were so kind to turn around and let her get on that one. Then she got upgraded to first-class from Chicago to Hong Kong! She was able to rest comfortably the whole way. They had to detour to Beijing because of bad weather and were stuck on the plane for five hours before heading to Hong Kong, but who cares? She was in first-class.
