And the answer is...

The kitchen window fell out.
Yup, the upper hinge mechanism for the casement window broke when we were closing it just as we were leaving.
We do, however, want to applaud all of you who played along. The fact that "all of the above" was the number one answer means that all of our whining over the years has paid off. You all, like us, now expect the worst of living in Anguilla.
Luckily, I am nothing if not organized and in five minutes had the name and phone number of the company where we bought our last replacement parts in 2007 and even printed out the previous invoice so we have been in contact with them during lay overs. Back to the trip, though. Our luggage made it. Woo Hoo! And the flight progress display on Royal Jordanian airlines shows not just current time, time till arrival, etc but also a compass that points the way to Mecca. Haven't come across that before.
But now we are bunking down at the Dana Plaza Hotel in Amman and looking forward to really starting the trip. Nitey night.
