The Air India Dreamliner from Singapore to Delhi with the Family
An interesting Miles vs Cash ticket buying experience, after careful planning forgetting to call a taxi but made it on time!, a smooth flight on Air India's Dreamliner to Delhi, but a rare bumpy immigration experience. Wonderful to be back home nonetheless!
Amazing Mauritius
Recently I went with my family to Mauritius. Beaches & colonial history in Mauritius, a great airline (including cheap airport & bids for upgrades), and an amazing Oberoi hotel stay in our mind.
My First Budget Flight – in the last century
My first budget flight, in 1998 with easyJet from London Luton to Geneva. Learnt a lot about how the ticket was priced so low & also met Sir Stelios, the CEO!
The Lost World of Hovercraft
The Lost World of Hovercraft, strange beasts that can skim over land, water, ice & mud. Relive a journey from Dover to Calais in 1981 through the eyes of a (then) 11 year old on the Princess Anne.
The Weekend FT (Financial Times), the perfect battery recharge
The Weekend FT, a perfect battery recharge. Current Affairs, Politics, Business, Life, Travel, Art, Culture, Technology & Humour. It is all there.
Seeing Off Parents at Changi Airport Singapore
Departure starts 48 hours before take off . The kind folks at the Royal Plaza on Scotts said it was 125kg, just 5kg above the limit. Then was the critical decision, when we do leave for a 5.10PM flight? As my parents like to leave much in advance,3 hours was it.
