There were two buses waiting at stop 28 and one of them took me directly to POD Parking. The trip up the M40 back home didn’t seem to take that long. It was great to get a hug from Vick, although I’m not sure the cats were that bothered to see me.

It was all very uneventful at Amsterdam at Gate D18. We boarded about 30 mins before departure and the load was light for the flight back to Heathrow. I think that summarises the position for all of my flights on this trip. On board and into my normal seat 01F. The cabin crew asked whether […]

There was no queue for security when I got there. When I approached Millionaire’s Door, the BA staff member checking boarding cards didn’t have a clue about how to check access. She initially indicated I could use the First Lounge. When I explained I had access to the CCR, she asked whether I had a […]

From the Air Train, I went down on the escalator (in the middle) for a change (rather than using the lift at one end) and it took me into a tunnel before I needed to cross the road. It felt very different to my normal walk when arriving into T7 and heading to the Air […]

My flight to JFK left from Gate 46B in the heart of the T4 bubble at the end of the pier. I was treated to the Concierge Key treatment at the gate when a petite Asian woman held a tablet up with my name on it. She told me I could pre-board ahead of group […]

I woke just before the alarm at 4am, so another 3.5 hours kip which I was impressed with. I had a shower and dropped my key in the drop box in the following 20 mins. I concluded that ordering an Uber to take me to the airport was the best thing to do. The BART […]

As expected, I didn’t get much sleep. I was awake at before 2am and I just knew that there was no chance of me going back to sleep. Where did I put that melatonin? Considering I have only just arrived, I had to start thinking about my trip back home. Two things I needed to […]
