About an hour before our flight departure we made our way to the gate at T2. The gate opened a few minutes after our arrival.
Through security and as usual I was wanded but Mrsdrron was selected for secondary explosives screening. Well she can be a bit explosive at times.
With her arm in a sling we were taken to the seats closest to the air bridge.
Though we weren’t allowed pre boarding.
Only 1 fellow got in front of us when boarding began. We were in Row 20 once again having been moved from our selected row 14. Row 20 is in the mini J cabin and you have all the passengers from down the back with their swinging back packs passing you. We will continue selecting Row 14. Fortunately SQ sent me a survey so they will hear about our seat selection problems and the BNE check in fiasco.
On board though it was good with a glass of champagne in my hand within a couple of minutes. Now the seat and menu. The photo of the menu is only 1 sheet as that was all it was.
I have already told of my problems with chest pain that began when we sat down at the gate. It was getting worse and I did contemplate aborting the flight and getting checked out at a hospital as despite having very little in the way of risk factors heart disease was causing great anxiety.
For some reason I then began feeling very nauseous and when in flight caused me to go to the lavatory and bring back some of my lunch. As it subsequently turned out the nausea continued in Bangkok and was much worse as soon as I had alcohol. So champagne is not always good for you.
We were both asked what we wanted for our meal which was strange as we both had booked our meals. Though neither of us wanted a meal now.
I feel it might be time to consider a new thread - has SQ lost it’s lustre?
