EU Queue

Calm start - relatively late afternoon flight gave us plenty of time. Targeted arrival at car park of 1 for a 4:15 flight seemed overly pessimistic. Spending 10 mins looking for a spot tempered that. On arriving at the bus stop and seeing stop 100 caused a little more concern - surely it wouldn't have to go via 100 other stops. Only 4 it turned out. Bizarre automated baggage drop that wasn't very automated. Jumped the queue because of an odd sized backpack. Nice. Plenty more queues to come. Security was negotiated with 1 glitch - Liz out of practice - packing her Kobo & phone. Just about had time for a bite to eat before boarding or that should read kid you that it's boarding, go through the gate, pack you in like sardines and then wait for 20 mins. Eventually boarded to find the flight was delayed by about an hour - nice. Emailed the hotel but got no response. Apparently thunderstorms were causing delays. At least it's not leaves on the line. Bit of a bumpy flight but passed relatively painlessly. Epic travelator frenzy once disembarked. Passport queue & because 1 of us has an Irish passport we could use the EU lane. Result! Took a while to realise that this was actually the busier queue. Followed instructions to meet the transfer. Unsurprisingly he wasn't there. Phoned and was told he was. Eventually he rocked up claiming he'd been at the other end of the car park. Hmmmm. Not going to argue but not buying it.En savoir plus
