Step away from the philosophy please folks. :)

I'm thinking something about trees, wood, noise, did you hear that? , no?.......

Anyway, back on topic.:)

When your significant other can't understand that you have booked a later flight connection simply because you 'really want to have decent lounge time' at transit airport! ....:lol:
 
When your SO rolls here eyes but understands why the trip to the USA starts officially in MPM...

Hint: See the FT One World thread index

Happy wandering

...the soap in the work bathrooms remind you of SQ's TPR soap. The soap isn't even nice but damn the scent memories are good.
 
I'm planning to book my next flight to Europe with AY simply to try out the A350.

Interested in what you think. I was a little underwhelmed. I just found AY to be.. cheap is the word that comes to mind. It was nice, but it seemed like everything was done like ikea. Same with food, it was nice but nothing memorable.

Very much looking forward to QR A350 ADL-DOH in January though.
 
when you wake up in the middle of the night because you left your bags at the hotel, and slowly realise that you're still at the hotel.

Have to totally agree - I cannot understand why an extra 8 hour layover, between suitesaver flights back from Europe, in Singapore seemed like a perfectly sensible idea to me.

Compromise - 3 hours (sniff, sniff).
 
You're walking across the tarmac to board your DRW/BNE flight and watch two C-17 Globemasters take-off and get annoyed when you overhear the old codger in front of you telling his wife they are Caribous.

I was in the viewing section in SIN once, and the young man next to me was trying to impress his date - except that virtually all airlines and types he claimed were wrong. Of course, she didn't know better, but I held back from telling her to find someone else who is a little bit more trustworthy.

Yeah, not much of a difference! :rolleyes:

I could take the thread slightly OT by this:

You remember the old Caribou 38 Sqn motto - "No Sweat Airlines"! :cool:
