1st JKT Work Trip Done

A major work project has just been completed, which also meant that it is time to travel again. This is my 3rd work trip for the year and interestingly the 3rd country; no repeat yet. 

Bcos the morning SQ flight was full and I didn’t want to take Scoot bcos it lands and takes off at the ulu terminal 2 in JKT, I took Garuda for the 1st time in my life. For a while, I was worried about its safety records but reckoned that it should be better than Scoot anyhow.

I woke up and got ready earlier as traveling to the airport from BP is new. I arrived early at the airport as well. The checkin was in T3 but the gate was at T1. Zzzz. At least the checkin staff informed and allowed me ample time for the sky train. I also got to buy Garrett popcorn bcos of that. The popcorn chain has outlets in all terminals except for T3. So strange.

The Indonesians seriously love the popcorn. They don’t have Garett in Indonesia. There was a long Q for the popcorns and they were all Indonesians. I bet these were the Swifties, flying home after the concert. All of them were buying multiple packs of popcorn and Taylor Swift songs were playing everywhere in the airport.

It was a small plane and pretty old but comfortable.

It has an inflight entertainment but I barely see anybody using it. I didn’t too bcos I couldn’t find the outlet for the headphone and was anyway well entertained by my Stephen King.

Meals were served and cleared quickly bcos the flight was  less than 2 hours. 

The food looks better than it tasted. I only like the same brand strawberry or blueberry yogurt.

As per all my work trips, I tried to maximise time for work. I had 4 busy work days but didn’t forget the gym.

Opting for simple dinners bcos I want to lose weight. Simple but nice. Comfort food.

Last night’s.The squid and prawn was good. I didn’t expect double bread though but I was very happy. Hoho. I like bread.

I had an earlier flight home this round and am very happy with my choice. My 1st lunch while waiting for time to pass.

Feels like home, though the teh back home is so much better.

The flight meal was much better. My 2nd lunch and I opted for chicken rice.

This time round, I caught 3/4 of a movie using my own earphones. It was a bigger plane and better system.

For most part of the trip, I was wondering if moomoo was fed. 

I think he is still very much alive.

Then I wonder how much laundry and housework I have to do when I reached home. Hoho. Fighting!
