A Long story which is worth narrating, I guess :)
My Tickets are booked in this Route... Boston->New York->Dubai->Bangalore
27th Apr
My flight in Boston is at 7 PM and I reached airport at 5 PM itself. Then, I came to know that 7 PM Flight is cancelled and they put me on 8:30 Flight. They told that it would reach New York at 9:45 and since my flight from New York to Dubai was scheduled at 11 PM, I thought, still I would make it.
But, the 8:30 flight got delayed by 1 hr and I reached New York at 11 PM and the flight to Dubai had already departed. So, they put me on the next day's flight. Yes, it was a 24 hr transit at New York. I called one of my colleagues, who stays 80 miles from Airport and he came all the way to Airport to pick me up and took me to his home. How nice he is!!! I will never forget him and his help in my life time.
28th Apr
It was already morning and hence, after breakfast, we went around New York City for a while and then, I had a nice sleep in his home. His wife was very kind and I had a good Indian food with brinjal curry. Later, I played for 1-2 Hrs with his two daughters. Then, he dropped me at the Bus stop. From there, I went to central bus stand of New York and took sub-way train from there. I got down at Jamaica Station and took Air-Train from there and reached Airport by 8 PM. I got into Flight and had a nice sleep.
29th Apr
This flight came via Hamburg, Germany where it stopped for 2 hrs. At last I came to Dubai at 11 PM. Again it was a 12 hr transit at Dubai. I slept for a while and roamed around Dubai Airport. I did some shopping as well :)
30th Apr
It was much awaiting 11 AM and I got into aircraft to Bangalore. It reached the destination at around 5 PM in the evening. I got out of the aircraft quickly and was in hurry to leave for home. But, still there was some bad luck and I had to wait for 1 1/2 hrs as my suitcase was the last one to come in the belt. Somehow, I could reach home by 7 PM.
