So, there we were in Jakarta’s Soekarno-Hatta International Airport on a Friday afternoon, having missed our connecting SQ flight because of a delay on the GA flight from Yogyakarta.
No problem, right? Just hop onto the next flight home; it’s only a couple of hours’ wait right?
Eh? It’s full up? And the next one and the last plane out too?
So, now what? Waiting list? Okay, so when will we know?
Whaddya mean we gotta wait till our names are called?
*Breathe*
Ooookaaaay. No biggie. We’ll just stay an additional night and go back first thing tomorrow.
Eh? You’re fully booked tomorrow until Sunday night?!?
*Panic*
Okay, okay. How about we pay the difference and go onto Business class?
It’s fully booked too?!? WTF?!?
Seriously folks. If the airlines are crying about poor performance, I just don’t see it on the ground.
What freaking recession?!?
