It's been ages since my last "story" here...
So, let me share another "story" with you guys here...
The story begin when this "kampung guy" 's nephew finished his study, and will have a graduation ceremony in Sydney...
And on a soooo coincident timing, Garuda had a promotion with Bank Mandiri for buy one get one free biz class ticket...
Just for around USD3,500 you will get 2 biz tickets CGK-SYD... It was quite a bargain at that time...
Just because they are 5 people, so one would be on redemption ticket, which was also sooooo coincident, GFF had a promotion too. Redemption Biz class with eY miles...
But on the last minutes, the parents couldn't leave the "kampung"...
So... there would be only three of them... and this "kampung guy" was on a "sacred mission" as an acting parent for his nephew... (but then it was turned out to be a more of a food galore than a ceremonial event... )
Ok... lets we see the map first....
And the flights would be on GA329 SUB-CGK ETD 1945 ETA 2105 and connected with GA712 CGK-SYD ETD 2345 ETA 0930+1
So there would be a plenty of time for the connecting time, 2h30m..
Some odd thing on GA's check in system was they couldn't issued the BPs of CGK-SYD sector from SUB...
So this "kampung guy" and his nephews must check in again at CGK to get the CGK-SYD BP...
But with that plenty of connecting time, they were no worried at all for that thing....
And because one of his nephew was in eY class on this short sector, and he got no access for Garuda Lounge, they decided to go to the public lounge, the Blue Sky Lounge instead of the Garuda Lounge, using their credit cards perk...
So here are some of the Blue Sky Lounge view that night...
It was crowded... but they still managed to get seat for them...
They had some "pre flight snacks" there...
