What to do if you miss a connecting flight, in 7 steps
Flight delays can be a headache. But when there's a connecting flight to catch, even an hour-long delay can mean the difference between getting to your destination or spending the night in an airport hotel midway through your journey. I spent much of a flight from Portland, Oregon, to Atlanta earlier this year messaging my airline, texting my husband, imploring a flight attendant and searching for alternate options after a departure delay meant I would almost certainly miss my late-night connection — and my kids' morning routines. Even though it is my job to know how to deal with travel snafus, my ultimate success came down to luck and an airport sprint.

Keener Sounds: A Suite by Roger Greenwald
The poet, when young, listened to a violinist practicing and wondered: "Could words as well be made to say the wordless?" This question animates Keener Sounds: A Suite, a sequence of contemporary sonnets in which music as both subject and inspiration accompanies evocative explorations of love, grief, time, and memory. With a bold lyricism, Roger Greenwald makes the sonnet form his own, both vital and new. Paintings by Arielle Sandler serve as intermezzos between the sections of this moving poetic suite. (From Black Widow Press) Books by past CBC Nonfiction Prize finalists being published in 2025 Greenwald attended The City College of New York and the Poetry Project workshop at St. Mark's Church In-the-Bowery, then completed graduate degrees at the University of Toronto. He has published three earlier books of poems: Connecting Flight, Slow Mountain Train and The Half-Life. He won the 2018 Gwendolyn MacEwen Poetry Award from Exile Magazine. Greenwald won the CBC Poetry Prize in 1994 and First Prize in the CBC Literary Award for Travel Literature in 2003.
