Well after finally letting us on the plane we had a long 14 hour trip to Dubai. We both got a few hours sleep and enjoyed the onboard entertainment (including a man in business class in boxer shorts who had already stored his trousers in the overhead locker by the time we were boarding the plane). Interesting flying with crew where English is their second language. I was a bit taken back towards the end of the flight when the first officer announced that we couldn’t use the lavatories anymore because the plane was going down! We did happily land safely on time in Dubai just before dawn.
All sorted!
It took a while but we are now ready to board. System problem we are guessing!
Oops…
Brisbane Airport, Australia
Just what you want to hear. There is a slight problem- you’re not listed on the flight! Sit over here while we sort it out!!
The time has come………………..
Cleveland, Australia
We seem to have been planning this trip for some time so it is nice for the day to finally arrive. We are flying Qantas/Emirates from Brisbane to Birmingham with a couple of hours stopover in Dubai. Our good friend Jane will be meeting us and we will spend the first few days with her.
