One lives about an hour's drive away from London's west side the other, well, in Crewe, so not exactly close. So the one from Crewe, we'll call her Barb (coz that's what her name is) decided to leave from Heathrow rather than Manchester because a) it's nice to travel together and b) it was actually cheaper to do so by a considerable margin. Since the new A380's fly out of Heathrow and not out of Manchester this clearly has something to do with the price reduction. At least that is what I and, I'm sure, many others would have thought. I've just checked on their flight status. They've made it to Singapore - in a B747-400. Whoops! Either side of their travel time and they'd have been on the A380. I wonder what happened and how bad they and all the other passengers who made the journey to Heathrow especially thinking they'd be flying in the more luxurious A380 feel? Maybe Singapore Airlines should explain themselves? Now they have a wait in the terminal. A mere nine and a half hours!!!!!!!! Then, at just after mid-night local time, they'll leave Singapore for Brisbane on a B777-200, arriving 09.50. That is going to be one unpredictably long and uncomfortable flight. Happy holidays!
