Friday 15 June - leaving on a Jet-Plane


Flew out of Melbourne on an A380 with Singapore Airlines. Nothing special or exciting, which is just what you like on such long trips. Felt strange not to be checking back with the office every time I got the chance of internet connection (e.g. Changi Airport), but I guess I will get used to that. On previous flights, we had always selected a window seat and one next-door. But that always meant that we had to disturb the person on the aisle to go for a walk. So this time, we chose the aisle seat in the middle section and the one next-door. That way the person on the aisle disturbed no-one, while the other person only disturbed ourselves when going for a walk (and no-one else disturbed us because they would use the aisle on the other side of the plane). Sure, you don't get a view from the window, but most of our flights are overnight anyway. We'll keep this selection for future flights.
