Airline passengers lands in wrong Manchester
He had never heard of Manchester in New Hampshire, but Jim Hourihan now knows there are at least two of them and one is the wrong place.
He boarded a Continental Airlines flight in Los Angeles headed for England before finding out on a connecting flight in Cleveland that he was going to New England — specifically Manchester in New Hampshire.
“When I first saw the plane, I thought ‘That’s not going to Manchester, England.’ And it was then that it dawned on me. There must be two Manchester’s,” he said.
Mr. Hourihan, a resident of London, was not the first person to confuse the two Manchester’s, said newspaper accounts.
Mr. Hourihan’s response to arriving at the wrong place: The New Hampshire in America was OK, but it could have used a few more pubs.
