On The Road Again

 Today marks the start of my final trip to the US for the year. That would make it my 6th this year and I is uber-sianz already. This time round, instead of flying out via Hong Kong which I would usually stay the night before at the airport hotel, I will be flying out via GuangZhou.

Now the flight departure is 8:30am, which means that they will tell you to check in 3 hours ahead due to tighter US security checks. Usually, I come in around 2.5 hours earlier which means I am planning to reach the airport at 6am. Counting back further, the airport is 1.5 hours away from my place which means, I have to set off at 4:30am.

Well, it's close to 1am as I am writing this and I think no need to sleep liao.

While there are other airlines with more convenient timings, I am afraid, I am pretty much stuck with Northwest due to their consistently cheaper prices and I still have 160,000 frequent flyer miles (and growing!) that the bladdy airline is making it sooooo difficult for me to use. Haiz....

Jaslyn is flying via Northwest Airlines on a separate trip and was bitching about how crappy the airline her friend was telling her.

Well, the truth of the matter is, that ALL american airlines are crappy. Period.

Anyway, see you guys in Los Angeles.

Jaslyn: Ok lah. Bring your ipod video and load it up with movies and a spare battery pack lor.

Kelly: Ironically, CX is my favourite airlines. However, I do agree with you that the plane heading up from HK to San Francisco and Los Angeles are usually in pretty bad shape. I wonder if there is a correlation between state of the equipment and the number of chinese passengers. Hmm.....

Anna: The reason why iPod was so successful despite so many similar MP3 players out there in the market is mainly to the huge support of accessories by the various vendors.

xcake: Yup, have a few meetings at Newport Beach and City of Industry. Northwest Airlines is cheap and service-wise is a case of "mai hiam buay pai, ai hiam kana siam". Overall, it was an ok flight except the departure times are kinda inconvenient.
However, you just can't over look the super duper relatively cheapness of the air tickets.

Leonard: Welcome to the blog! Luggage turned out ok despite the fact that we had to leave it unlocked for US Security purposes. So far, I have yet to lose anything in the luggage. Probably due to the fact that I have all my valuables in my carry-on.

Yanzzz: Hijack? CHOY CHOY CHOY!!! 你这个乌鸦嘴!!!
