Me: I'm looking for a quicker route home following a flight cancellation. Carolyn: Thank you for your patience. I was looking into your travel dates and wanted to let you know that there is currently no flight availability for June 18th. Would you like me to check the day before, June 17th, to see what options are available instead? Please let me know how you would like to proceed and I will be happy to look into it for you. Me: June 17th was yesterday so I won't be able to make flights on that day.

For the top row, tabbing order makes sense, but then it gets quickly inexplicable.
A side-by-side comparison of "grid lanes" and standard grid. The tab order is left to right, top to bottom, which becomes hard to track with the lanes, but easy with the grid.
