Team Two congregated at the Edmonton International Airport at 4:45am to distribute and check in the remaining supplies required to carry out the last half of the 2018 Mision. All went according to plan until some of the members realized that their seats were already occupied on the plane and that the airline was overbooked. It turns out that their seats were occupied by individuals travelling on an airline buddy pass, but as they had already been seated they refused to leave the plane. The airline, following the airport protocols, deplaned all passengers from the 737 and then reboarded all but those who were overbooked. Always cool in the face of ever changing conditions, the CAMTA team were all in their appropriate seats and ready to go within an hour or so of the scheduled departure time.
