莹的天空 Ending of My Istanbul Trip

Sorry for not updating u all for long time
Starting to feel that 24 hours are not enough for a day

Okay, back to the topic..
On the last day
I went to the airport
On time
And waited for my plane to depart
In the waiting lounge
Guessed what I saw?
MAB on Sahiba Airport?
Malaysian Airlines Berhad is one of the companies
Operating this airport!
This made me really proud
Until...
The time allocated for us borading the plane

First, the lounge get so compacted
Bunches and bunches of ppl squeezed themselves
In order to get into the boarding gate
To make it even worse
There were three airplanes boarding passengers at the same time
And we, the ignorant yet a bit educated passengers
Cant do much thing
Except following the sing board showing our flight info
And tried our best to organized ourselves into lines
And with the stupid signboard changing
We just mummied ourselves to the correct lane
Where the lanes werent that obvious as
There were three flights going on
Suggesting that there were more than 350 passengers
In a undersized lounge which is smaller than that of LCCT
Now, this made me proud of LCCT first time
Too ashamed to say that this is an airport managed by MAB

And then, we needed to board on a transfer bus to take us to the plane
But guessed what again
The distance from the boarding gate to the bus
is just within 100 steps
if you think that 100 steps were too many
Try to walk 100 steps and you will know how near it is
I tried it, so dont argue with me.. hahahhaha
And because of teh bus transfer
The whole process slowed down even more
And for this,
LCCT, I ssalute you again
Next time you ask me to walk 500 steps under the burning sun
I will smile and walk arrogantly
No more complains
Now i know why u didnt use a bus transfer service...
(which i tot was due to money thingy at first)

To be in the second bus to the plane
I was considered to be lucky as
There were still a lot of overhead spaces to put my luggage on
Few that who came last were forced to put their bags underneath their seats
And when all settled down
We waited to get ourselves bek in cold cold UK
We waited and waited
With the stewardess taking a head count
To confirm the number of the passengers on board
The strang thing was she kept on counting and counting
Walking from the front to the back
Then walking to the front, counting again
'Aw, she must be really poor in her Math'
That was my first guess

But suddenly, an announcement was made by the captain
'Due to some problems, we cant take off now, please be patience and we apologized for the lateness'
Hmm.. this sounded strange...
Everyone started to popping their heads out to try to figure out what was going on...
The stewardesses continued their counting... up down, down up and again and again...
Oh my.. Im getting really impatience now...
Here came another announcement
'There is one illegal customer on this plane. If you suspected that you might miss out some procedure and might be the person, please report yourself to our crew. Thank you for your cooperation'
We looked at each other and started to wonder
Then I heard a crew saying that there were supposed to be only 124 ppl checking in
But on counting the number of ppl on the plane
It appeared that the plane had 125 ppl on the plane
And we were not allowed to take off by the airport due to security problem

Another annoucnement came
'Do you all want to go bek to Luton Airport?'
'yeah...' Not many replied as many were sure that they are not the illegal one, including me
'Okay, now we need everyone to take out their boarding pass'
The weirdest thing was each adn everyone of us got our boarding pass
Which meant that each adn evevryone of us were supposed to be on the plane!
We got no illegal person on the train
So, who's the phantom then?

After an hour of repeating announcemetns
Repeated head counts (more than 12 times)
The last announcement came
'We had resolved the problem now. This is due to a staff on ground that was new and made a mistake on the counting. And now, please all take your seats as we are ready to take off'
Now, MAB, please, if you want to put a staff in operation
Please give full training and ensure that they know very very well all the basic procedure#
I mean really really knowing that they are doing
Before putting them in the position
Cause the above scenario might just happen
Never underestimate the power of accident
To mess mayb not urs but really did messed our lives up

And when we finally took off
All put their hands together and clapped
Wow... finally...
and now, here came my other worries
What time is my train then?
This is worrying....

Aiks.. Im getting tired at writing...
hmm.. make it short, cause i confirm that not more than 5 person will read till this line
In the end, I missed me bus and last train bek to liverpool
Which costed me bout £20
And ended up buying two train ticket
1. From airport to train station (£14)
2. From london to manchester (£70)
Crap.... $£%^&*&*))&^

At first planning to stay overnight at train station at manchester
Cause the last train to liverpool left ady (12am+ ady)
And the earliest will be4am
But in the end, met up with a nice guy, David on the train
Shared the taxi money with me
He paid £90, I paid £15
Isnt that a blessing?
From my heavenly father
Thank you Father...

Conclusion
Amazing journey with unexpected accidents with blessed endingr
