So today's my one and only 3 sectors for the month! Danang-Siem Reap (DAD-REP) today.
The series of events start as we took the lift to departure hall. As my set of crew was about to exit the lift, a foreign Asian man stepped into the lift hurriedly before we even got out. His face seemed to be puzzled and shocked from seeing us but trust me; we were feeling the same too. He stood right in the middle of the lift as we struggled to get out of the small lift with 7 people inside.
So I was doing jcl today and our Captain is a "top 3" I would say so I was really on my toes the whole time. Jcl load was 12, 7 and 10 so it wasn't going to be an easy day for me. Its never easy when there's 12 in jcl so my cic and I were working our ass off. Thank god we had a few minutes to munch on our food before preparing for landing in Danang.
Transit passengers to REP are requested to disembark as a security sweep needs to be done. When boarding in DAD for REP, a family told us they were not aware that this flight is not direct. My crew told them that multiple announcements have been made by tech crew and cabin crew but they said they didn't know until they disembarked and realized it wasn't REP.
The middle sector only lasted 1 hour but the weather got really bumpy that my stomach was kinda churning so I'd really rate it a 8 of 10. After the seatbelt sign was turned off, a passenger feedback that she hated turbulence and hated taking flights and asked us to do something abut the weather. Let me summon the gods then?
As we were landing into REP, Captain announced that Angkor Wat can be seen from the left side of the plane so almost instantly you could see all the heads turning to look out. My jcl passenger decided to unfasten his seatbelt just to see the view ad what's worse was that we were very close to ground. The little fuming me inside was very tempted to yell at him but my cic said to ignore. Even on ground, I was tempted to be sarcastic towards him but I held back.
On the last sector, it was already almost 8pm as we departed so just as I guessed, most of them had their dinner already so they decided to skip the onboard meals. They had a good sleep and my cic and I had a good rest too. Just can't wait to land.
After arrival in SIN, as we were walking out into Arrival Hall, this middle aged uncle was slowly pushing his trolley of luggage after collecting his luggage from the conveyor belt. We could foresee a collision between our set of crew and him since we crew have to head for the red channel (which is further) and the uncle only has to go through green channel (which is in our way). But as the circumstances looked we seemed to be able to walk past him before colliding, which actually also mean he gotta kind of let us pass first. But I think since its in a crew's blood to give way, our set of 6 cabin crew and 2 tech crew eventually stopped and let this uncle walk first.
And so, his friend shouted from behind, "walao eh brother! what you doing!"
Hahaha and we all secretly laughed inside.
Anyway here's a picture of the sunset in Siem Reap.
