Tier Point Run to Hawaii/San Juan in Feb 2014

In the DAA Exec lounge, and I’m leaving from gate 302 on BA0833 back to Heathrow next leaving at 08:55. So far the trip has gone according to plan and I hope the last two flights carry on that tradition.

I had to turn around quickly and get back through Security and there was a huge queue. However I was patient and it probably only took 20 mins in the end.

Skype call using my headphones didn’t work properly - first second worked fine but then it cut out - I think this is a known issue with the microphone on the headset not working properly with Skype.
