went to work earlier today, left early..... came back around 11 to leave home at 12.30 to go to LCTT to fly off to phuket for a 3.20 flight.
got to LCCT, tried looking for a check in counter... couldn't find it... dangg... asked for assistance, n they told me the flight got postponed to 8.10pm.....
thats a whole 5 hours delay... or re-schedules in the words of air asia...
since i'm going there for a shoot and there's a dinner rehersal going on the same day around 8 or so, jen n i had to get there soon...
so the next thing i did, was to ask from air asia the options i had... and he said 'you either refund, or wait'......
called MAS, asked if they had tickets to phuket and they said yes and they said it's RM1450...
pretty goood... considering the tickets for air asia was 908 and MAS gets there on time.
so i booked it on the phone, and took a bus... a cheap shuttle to KLIA, and it only costed me RM1.50/person.
so took the bus to klia, about a 10minute journey, and went straight to the ticket counter. and guess what...???
sir, you ticket for 2 is RM 2900.... 1450/person... and i was like dangg....
quick call to air asia, ... tooo toooot... no one picked up or busy for like 20 minutes...
decided to go back to LCCT with the RM1.50 shuttle... to try to buy the ticket again since i've already cancalled it..
went to the customer service counter, tried my way to negotiate to 'un-cancel' the flight... he said NO... can't undo it...
so went to the sales counter.... waited for 20 mins... when it was about my turn, the computer failed.... ?????dang....
waited waited waited... a supervisor who looked like tony F, came to see how was eveyrthing going on at the counter ....... i manage to start a short talk with him... n explained my situation... and he said... 'let me see what i can do with it'..........
patiently waiting for the computer to restart i was simultaneously waiting for the tony F guy look alike to say ' it's alll good..'.....
wait wait wait... didn't happen... .untill maybe 15 mins later.... he came n said....' kau tim'!
so the next stupid thing i did was to pay 80 bucks to use the lounge in LCCT where i'm currently at atm....
total distance travelled from home, LCCT, KLIA and LCCT.... maybe 40km?
total displacement from LCCT to KLIA and LCCT ? 0
lessons to be learnt.....
1. confirm flights before leaving home.... esp Air Asia..
2. start short talking!... you'lll never know what you're gonna get....
off to phuket now!
