Hi, I am going to Florida to watch the shuttle launch and will buy a relatively large, comfortable folding chair for that. Where do I discard it afterwards? I doubt it will fit into the hotel's trashcan. Is it OK to leave it in the hotel room on checkout? Or is there a place at Kennedy Visitor's center to discard them? Thanks!
I am sure if you offered it to someone around you they would take it. Where are you planning on watching the launch from?
The launches I wave watched ended up being a conversation with the people around me. I would just offer it to one of them or stop by a Goodwill/Salvation Army on your way.
From the NASA causeway (where everyone else will have a folding chair too - I have been there on the previous launch attempt). I doubt anyone would be willing to schlep two chairs. I think I'll just offer it to hotel employees as suggested above.
Lucky you that you get to see it from the causeway. I keep missing out on those tickets! I still have a few more chances.
If you can't give it away, just leave it in your hotel room. I once did this with a hoola hoop from a party. Obviously it wasn't going on the plane with me.
I agree with Jim (just don't tell him). If you can't find someone who wants your chair, drop it off at a thrift shop. They'll appreciate the donation & your chair will find a new owner. I'm missing the obvious part. Couldn't you have hung it around your neck & claimed it was a necklace?
As soon as I posted that, it dawned on me that it probably didn't match your outfit. Either that, or you couldn't figure out how to get the miles for two (or three) seats.
IIRC, it was hot pink, which is always a basic color. I didn't want to risk not being upgraded because they couldn't upgrade my companion extra seats.
