Those days before my London Trip

Day 1 : 19 Oct
I was supposed to fly on this date. So excited. I bought all gifts and packed the luggage over night. I had planned to work in the morning and go to airport in the afternoon.

In the morning, I received an IM from a colleague asking me "How come you are still in office?". I replied my flight is in the evening, why shouldn't I be in office. He said "Check your ticket". I panic and checked on the ticket. It's a shock to me. My ticket showed 0745. The time was 9:50am at that moment. Then I realised I had missed my flight. My tear nearly rolled out.

I quickly called Sway Muay (She's the one who helped me book my ticket). She had helped a lot. She gave me a few options: (1) To fly on 22nd Oct (Sun), 3am (2) To fly on 20th Oct (Fri), 7:45am (3) To cancel the tickets which will cost me $150 but will get back the ticket price. I was too upset to make a decision at that moment. I consulted many people on the options.

Guess what is my final decision?

The day before I fly: 21 Oct
I was so bored. I had been staying over at Dawn's home for the past two nights since the day of my horrific missed flight experience. I went back to office to finish up some work then joined June and Dawn at Marina Sq. When they told me they were all going for K Box, I had no mood. I went ahead to look for "Bau Kua".

Not too sure whether is it that I managed to find "Bau Kua" at Bugis. I felt better and went back to Marina Sq to join the rest for K Box. We took up the buffet package. Yummy... there were sashimi, one of my favourites. My stomach roared with satisfaction.

The day that I was in airport: 22 Oct, 3am
June and Dawn had dropped me at terminal 1 around 12midnight. At first, I couldn't find Qatar on screen. Thus, I had no idea which counter to checkin. At last moment, I managed to rush in.

After boarded the flight, I thought I can relax and sit back to watch a few good movies before the transit country, Doha. To my horror, I couldn't find the small tv screen infront of me. I looked infront, left and right and on top. I can only find a few tv screen afar. I nearly cried out: "Why are all these happening to me?"

Later, I found out from Qatar flight magazine that the airline had bought a few airbus A340 in early October. After checking my flight ticket, I was relieved that my flight from Doha to London is A340. Know why am I relieved? Airbus A340 has tv screen for each passenger. This is a very good new since last two days.

There I go, I was flying to Doha for 7hrs.
