Delay'ed' again 2


The usual tidbit and drink served onboard .


Just arrived Penang an hour ago, very tired and sleepy . I don't receive the service which I got when I encountered a delay last time. You can see this entry by clicking www.frienzz.blogspot.com/2008/12/first-time-experience.html

This time around when everyone is so tired of changing from one departure gate A6 to A7 ,then to A9 finally we got a personal apology from the pilot after we arrived at Penang International Airport . He was standing next to the aisle and behind his cockpit door saying sorry to us .I overheard one of the Eurasian lady said to her partner , after she was greeted by the pilot:

Lady: He would probably say good night instead of sorry . But , I won't forgive him totally even he apologized to me just now.

I arrived in Penang quarter past eight. I looked at the arrival display . 3 of the arrivals from KUL were within 20 minutes range .Our flight should be arriving at 6 p.m. and MH 1158 at 7.20 p.m. Now both MH1154 and MH 1158 were delayed . Both arrived within 3 minutes apart from each other . 7.56 p.m. and 7.59 p.m. respectively . Meanwhile MH 1162 was on schedule arrived at 8.13 p.m.

I felt that if there is any problem happens to the aircraft , a mere sorry wouldn't enough . Better to be late than sorry .
In my point of view , the pilot has to apologize to the passengers even though the engineers are responsible for it .



I met my ex-colleague at the waiting hall.

Delay'ed' again


My delayed flight (second from the top)

What a bad day for me again in KLIA . I was in the waiting hall for my boarding instead I was given a transit pass .

I was quite happy to be given a seat in the 5.10p.m. MH1154 flight to Penang but the happy didn't last long enough . As everyone was waiting anxiously at the waiting hall (gate A6) to board the aircraft , an announcement was made saying that there were some technical delay for about 30 minutes . But as the time passes , it was 5.40 p.m. and this time we were informed that the delay will for another hour .That wil be around 6.40 p.m.

I am now waiting outside the gate . I will report if there will be any news here after .
