Just to make it a little bit worse, I'll comment "Oh! but all's well that ends well."

But seriously, this sounds like a journey through hell. Like those essays you wrote when you were ten, titled 'the day when everything went wrong'.

Yeah, one hears of such horror stories before but nothing really prepares you for stuff like this.

But Confucius say "Life is one big lesson"

Ouch ouch ouch ....

When I reached the BIAL part - I was expecting more tragedies - have heard a few horror stories, of people waiting in the aircraft for 30 minutes for the mobile stairs to arrive, and then waiting for 1 hour for their luggage to arrive ....

( so it could have been worse :) )

Welcome back.... How long are you here ?

I guess that's true :) We did have to wait for 15 mins for the aerobridge to attach itself though it was not BIAL's fault. The aux power unit on the aircraft was faulty.

Welcome back.... How long are you here ?
Thanks! I'm here until the 22nd of July. It's been a long while. How have you been?

How have you been?

Been good ...
Totally relishing the startup experience at Ugenie.
Besides work, life is settled. Few friends remain in Bangalore now .... we catch up once in a while.

How's it been with you ?

Things have been a little hectic at times at university, but otherwise it's been fine.

It was! Like a perfectly scripted horror airline story. United were however decent enough to respond to our complaint email and give us travel certificates for our troubles.
