From the open-air boarding and deboarding area, I followed the Transit signs and was promptly intercepted by a lady who affixed a sticker to the back of my passport.

My flight was due to leave from Gate 59, which wasn’t too far from the lounge. The terminal was noticeably quieter at 1pm than it had been at 9am earlier in the day — which meant fewer people getting in my way.

My final flight of the day was a significant one in more ways than one. It was my first time flying with Fiji Airways, my first time crossing the International Date Line, and the first moment I would truly find myself on the other side of the world.
