Plane Plane.....????

Before we start, I would like to apologise for the title of this but as I could not come up with anything (original) I thought if the last one was airport airport....this one could be passed off as plane plane! So now that we have gone past all the (useless) formalities, we can go back to the topic or the the lack of it.
Walking into the flight the one thing that kept coming to my mind was one of my friends comment on his experience of flying Air India and how the air hostess (some like to be preferred being referred as stewardess) were a bit on the older side of their career and a few were probably as old as mum (his words not mine). And well as soon as I walked towards the flight and look up, I am greeted by an air hostess who well probably was a couple years younger than mum. Now this makes it hard for you if you really want to get something at short intervals, would you not start feeling guilty after the second time? Plus, to generalise the air hostess are supposed to be hot in flights....why do you think Branson got in the aviation industry....it definitely wasn't his love for flying! Anyways a late night flight is supposed to be a very pretty sleepy affair and this was no different. The flight wasn't as bad as I expected...there were no insects or rodents on the plane...apart from the guy sitting in the seat in front of me but I can't decide if he fit the insect or the rodent part. I have a feeling a feeling one or the others species is going to get insulted by me placing him either way. The in flight entertainment was nothing exciting I had a choice of watching a Bobby Deol movie or a Shammi Kapoor movie and I opted to read a book. I was offered "supper" which was well the less said the better. So after about 4.5 hours we get into Singapore and there ends my Air India experience. I get off the flight for the 13 hour transit which is boring for most part except when the good people at Qantas went ahead and put me off the system list for the flight to Melbourne. The guy sitting at the transfer desk asked me about three times if I was sure I had booked my tickets to melbourne.....hell no I just thought I would take a flight to Singapore and take my chances....are you nuts Mr. Transfers guy. After a few phone call the dude turns around and tells me that today is my lucky day and I have got a seat on the plane. Now I may not know that much about luck but me getting a seat on the plane which I booked a ticket for...is not luck. No, winning a $10 Million lottery is lucky, heck give me that and keep the blooming seat to yourself, I can charter a plane out of there if I won the lottery!!! Anyways after I was shown my somewhat warped luck I proceeded to get some food and sleep. I had another night of flying with another airline not really known for its comfort.
To end this I would just like to say that while travelling is one of the most exciting experiences it does get boring especially if you are like me and have the shortest attention span known to mankind. Till the next time.....Happy Flying folks!!! :)
