Start as you mean to go on.
Or not as the case may be. If I carry on like this I may never get to spain!
What am I talking about? Due to an unfortunate set of circumstances I am currently sat at my desk at home writing this rather than being in London as I should be! The reason for this is that I was a little late in leaving my house this morning (suddenly remembering to pack t-shirts can really slow you down!) and it seems that FlyBE.com has suddenly got really anal about closing the departure gates 30 minutes before the flight is due to depart.
I got to the check-in desk 25-30 minutes before the departure time only to find that the gate had just been shut. However, it’s not that unusual for people to be still queuing at the check-in desk only 15 minutes prior to their flights departure. I guess the FlyBE.com women must just be having one of their…. moments.
