September 26, 2005 : 11:29 PMBack from IndoAfter four sweat filled, wedding days, 1000 photos, three costume changes (just for me!) and some slight sun burn I'm back from Indonesia. After getting back to Aus I was reminded of the worst part of flying: The Baggage Claim. On the plane you can avoid all the other idiots (passengers) with ease but put them all in the one area with the same agenda and you have chaos. They really need a public education system for how to claim your bag. My system is simple: Stay back with your trolley even further back and move in for the kill once you see your bag. Don't stand in front of people who are already waiting them attack them with your oversized suitcase filled with clothes you didn't even wear. Oh and if you fly Singapore Airlines in economy like me then make sure to steal a pair or headphones from business class. They fit better and have active noise reduction. Sure beats the $4 pair they give you normally. Business class never fills up so no one will notice. Movies I cought n the flights were: Snatch, Madagascar, XXX2, Oceans Twelve, Dreamship Surprise Period 1 , Hostage and some others. The plane is a great way to watch all those movies you didn't really want to see in the cinema or could be bothered renting. My last travel tip is to order a special meal. I go for the Muslim meal but just choose anything like low carb, Jewish, vegetarian or just make something up like allergic to pepper or something. The reason being is you get served first which means you've finished eating before the rest of the flight. Posted at September 26, 2005 : 11:29 PM
