Rachel Barton Pine, was trying to fly home from Phoenix, Arizona, when a flight attendant decided that her 1742 Guarneri del Gesú would not fit in the overhead bin.

The result was that Rachel and her family had to sleep the night in the airport, waiting for another plane.

Don’t we just love US Airways?
