Viktor Navorski
I'm kinda leading a Viktor Navorski life... stuck in the airport.
I woke up at 3am to pack the last bit of stuff and check out from the hotel. 4am the cab picked me and i headed to Munich Airport. surprisingly it was already quite busy at 4.30am. the flight was at 6.45am so i was so sien. didn't bring any book and no mp3 player. so stoned for bout 2 hrs and finally to amsterdam. Amsterdam (Schipol airport) is soooooooooo busy. i was stuck in the jam (human jam) just because i wanna WALK to the KLM office. hmmm coz there were too many ppl around. just can't move at allllllllll..... finally escaped and check in as 'waiting list'... fingers crossed throughout the wait for the flight. Another 2 hours (coz took 1 hr to walk around the airport and another hour to check in...total of 4 hrs)... with fingers crossed waited at the waiting hall RIGHT outside the MAS plane which will take me home. After everyone with a confirmed ticket boarded, it is time for me to know my destiny. *footstep of the air stewardess* i was looking so hard at the walkway....as the air stewardess approaches, *heart stopped beating* she............OH NO SHE SHOOK HER HEAD INDICATING THERE IS NO EMPTY SPACE.I lowered my head and walk out of the waiting area feeling totally thrashed. carrying my 100kg laptop bag and my sling bag i walk to the arrival hall...get my passport stamped AGAIN and went to collect my luggage. *wait wait wait wait* 1 hr later i went to the Service Desk..and she told me 'u dun really need ur bag now right?' i was like 'huh???? ya i dun need it right now......but wait, where is my bag?' KLM girl...hmmm it might be on the plane to KL now...OR it might be in the baggage system but i can't tell u right now. *sigh* can things get any worse than this?
at that moment i was just trying to chill and not get frustrated coz it doesn't help the situation. spoke to some other passengers who got kicked out from the same flight and went to check in for the 9pm flight and try my luck again. i am also waitlisted. i'm kinda desperate to get home... so i think i'll have to try every 2 times a day until i get to go home. all flights are fully booked till 8th Aug (which is 24days from today wth)...went to the bookstore and bought 2 books and finally get to eat sth and walked around to find a place to online and kill some hours. killed 5 hours.... 4 to go... my destiny to be determined then.
