A cushy status run across the ditch turns into a work trip!

Sad.

I'm in the departures area now. This is an A380 and the place is deserted. The plane will be empty!

I didn't realise you were not travelling back together. Noice as Kath and Kim would say. A bit of me time in F would be heaven.

 

[Pushka]

Noice indeed.





Ive asked for a shower appointment. Let's see if it happens.

Half an hour until departure.

 

[Pushka]

Nice leather menu.



And nice choices.






And I think I am in luck with the shower.

 

[Pushka]

No amenity kit but the same mini bar set up.



And small refreshment kit.



And writing set.

Glad you skipped the pie?

Even if you didn't we wont tell Mr P

With a shower. . I can imagine this would be heaven on a long flight. It's pretty good on a quick one.

Pix later. With the story. Wifi is a bit slow on board.

Don't worry about posting, just enjoy the experience

Well done on the SG Pushka. I had the lamb at Euro a couple of weeks ago and thought it was excellent. Sorry the oysters special was only for lunch. Enjoy that F!

Back to earth with a thud. Nope, not the plane but went cheap on accommodation and staying at Ibis budget. I've shoved the case against the door for security. There's a bunk above the main bed and just cracked my head on it. OH&S not!

Back to nice things.

The shower. I can imagine on a long flight it would be bliss. I asked the crew who was assigned to me if i could experience it. She said she would check as its a short flight. She came back later and said it would be ok. I was the only person who did it. They certainly don't encourage it.

After dinner she said the room was ready. Its large. Delightful.



The crew explain what to do in case of turbulence.

Sit here and hang on!



The oxygen mask will appear from here just out of the shower area.



Nice array of toiletries. I just chose Relax shower gel.



Hair dryer

 

[Pushka]

Nice basin.



35,000 feet?



The shower. Large cubicle.



And water! You have five minutes so if you wash your hair you can stop while lathering. Temp is perfect. The stream is good considering where you are.



There's a nice mural of Dubai on the wall.



Nice sprays



I was surprised at how refreshed I felt afterwards.
