Yesterdays magnitude 7 earthquake in Japan has meant Virgin saw fit to cancel today's flight. Faced with the choice of waiting 5 hours to jump on a different airline (and in economy) or waiting for the equivalent virgin flight tomorrow I decided to wait the few hours.
Good news is I got a £10 food voucher! A toasted sandwich, 2 muffins and a very large latte, these were my company as I trawled through all the Olympic events deciding which ones I want to go see. It turned out to be a very productive 90 mins, but I hope to god I'm not successful in all my applications as it came to £600.
Bored with the pre-security side of T3 I treated myself to a visit to the new T5 for a change of scenery :) It's all very nice, got a little freaked out by all the EMC advertising but wasn't really able to see much of the terminal or go shopping until passing security so reverted back.
Back to T3 and I was first in line to check in for the Nippon Airways flight, good news as it meant I got an exit seat!
To be fair, the flight was OK, I had my extra leg room and handily there was a USB socket so I could at least charge my iPhone. The food was OK, I didn't enjoy it as much as I normally do because I was on the exit seats the stupid mega fold away table wasn't all that secure so peeling back all the exciting parcels of food didn't carry the same 'christmas' feeling when you're worried about sending ur fruits flying down the aisle.
