My travels have begun and thus far it has been very smooth. There was virtually no traffic on the way to the Trudeau International Airport here in Montreal since I left the house at 6am. I am now sitting in the Maple Leaf lounge and enjoying the convenience of free wireless internet, complementary breakfast and a great view of the tarmac (see picture). My sympathies go out to the minions that are sitting on uncomfortable chairs waiting at the gate...mwhuahahaha. Although, having this kind of convenience almost takes the magic out of flying, since it feels just like an extension of the conveniences at home. Traveling for me has become a labourious adventure at the end of which you have the reward of arriving at your destination, just like the explorers of the old days.
On that note I think I'll grab another drink from the complementary bar and sit back on the reclining chair.

By the time you see this Markus you will be in China. I hope the gazillion hour long flight went well and that you are not to stunned by the heat!
Hey here's a place where I can comment! I've never flown 1st Class anywhere....Geek or not I'm deadly impressed Markus. Hope you have clear skies and an easy flight(s) over.
Sadly, I did not actually fly in first class...though this is something I would very much like to do. Although, I was able to enjoy all the other benefits that go with first class like Executive Class check-in and the lounges due to the American Express Card I have. One day I will fly 1st Class :D
Thank you for leaving lots of comments it makes me feel like I am still in touch with the world back home :P
