Andy's Blog - Gone Further

It’s very rare that I have an enjoyable day of departure.

The first disaster was in 2003 when Lastminute.com forgot to send me my tickets, then there was the time when Amsterdam wouldn’t let us in and now the culprits are Austravel. So helpful throughout but they forgot to confirm our flights correctly.

I was supposed to be on a BA flight around now in Club World, enjoying my fully flat bed and fine wine, occasionally tilting my empty glass to the 5′ 11″ busty stewerdess in a bikini to indicate my glass needs filling.

Without boring you too much with the details we eventually managed to get on an Air France flight (no doubt with French people). To do this the poor manager at Austravel has only just gone home (due to finish at 3.30pm – on a Saturday!) and I’ve walked from Terminal 2 to Terminal 3 (the furthest distance in Manchester Airport) 3 times.

Our plane leaves in 40 mins and we drop down in Paris for a bit. If all goes to plan I wont have time for an update in Charles de Gaul.

Stuoobs – cheers again for the lift!
