Re: Your most amazing Air Travel incident/experience!
Absolutely, it does. Please share more details.
Couple of weeks ago, I had to spend a night at the airport because I missed my connecting flight by 5 mins.

That’s more like an inconvenience. You should’ve put on your South Park voice “I’m from CENTCOM. Respect my Authoritah!” . Please tell us how you spent that time in transit.
I think my most amazing experience with travel is yet to come inshallah. But few things here and there.
Just like teggy I can hardly sleep during travel, I think thanks to ample quantity of caffeine in blood.
One small thing I remember from one of my trips to pakistan. My mother was travelling in business class as she normally does while I was in the same flight in economy. It was a night atmosphere and as usual I couldnt sleep and the seats were uncomfortable too. So decided to take a walk and check out if Ammi is doing ok.
As I walked there I saw her lying on a long seat which had turned into a bed. The seat next to her was empty so my mother asked me to sit down. I sat there and played with the buttons to turn it into flat like a bed as well. It was so much cozy that before I knew I was dead asleep. Next thing I knew someone was shaking me slowly. That was airhostess waking me up. And then she was like, sir you dont belong here you have to go back to your seat in economy. I quickly turned around to see my mom in a hope she’ll do my “sifarish”. And to my shock my mom opened one eye to see the situation , turned around towards other side and keep pretending asleep.
And wutever dream I was having got shuttered and dreadfully I walked back to the choking seats of economy.
We still chuckle in the family remembering that moment when my so much loving mom declined to bail me.
LOL! That is awesome. Aunty Ji has at least one extra internet fan. (Me!).
Bumped up from economy to business class due to overbooking. British Airways. 7 best hours of my travel. Slept so peacefully, because I could actually recline. :jano:
:hinna:
Next best to it at any time was having an extra seat to myself. Once an airline gave us ice cream for dessert. That was also super neat.
Bumpage is awesome. Lucky! :k: What was your reaction to the upgrade?
