Free yourself to do the right thing…

I recently had a flight, which as the title suggests, was my first one. It was worth noting as I felt things, which sent me back to the child hood dreams

I have visited airports earlier, went inside the aircraft, the pilots cabin. But never flew till date. So here was I, finally flying How was I feeling.. excited!!

The cabin crew was friendly, as they are supposed to be, but funny at the same time! They were doing weird things, which in the end, they also were laughing. Apparently because, they were enacting and someone else, the flight manager, was doing the voice over

Anyways this is not all important!

The Beautiful part:

The plane starts moving on the runway… After like 10 minutes of doing catwalk, coming on the right take off path, it blasted off like I drive my car @ 100 mph, yeah right, of course at a greater speed. But I couldn’t relate to how fast it was running I was seeing the wings, which had a weird thing written on it “Please do not move over this line”. So I thought if we were allowed to walk till that line on the wings

I would have loved doing that while in-flight

I could get the idea of the speed, after the buildings appeared ant-sized within few seconds…! And the G Force was ON ME completely!! :-/

When things stabilized, I realized I was in between the clouds, and soon on top of them. I could see the bed of clouds beneath and it appeared as if I was walking on it! And it was slow motion!

Awww it was so great!! I was just awestruck by the experience and all I kept saying was “Wow!!”, luckily I had no co-passenger by my side

For a moment, I went back to the dream world, and I thought the place is so calm, quiet, peaceful… And wished, I stayed at such place all the time and slightly tears rolled out.. Dunno why?? But I wish I should have been here before

I could have jumped off and stayed there. But yeah I know.. So forget it

I loved the turns and the curves plane took. And was enjoying all the G-Force was doing to me!! The take off and in flight was beautiful, the landing on the other hand was OMG totally contrary and messy!!!

The Messy part:

I knew it wouldn’t be all goody goody for me, considering that I have motion sickness.

But considering I was alright till now, I thought “eh.. I am a man now! nothing happened to me!! yAy!” and then I ordered a Big veg burger, damn was I hungry! and a Mango drink [Yellow in color, this is important!!]

I gulped it all casually and then it was time for landing. Unfortunately I had one stoppage. So that means the plane takes off and lands 2 times!

As the plane descended, it was totally messy for me, I couldn’t understand what went wrong suddenly. Ears paining, plugged in the cotton buds, no use! Stomach brumbling.. wth! And then, nauseating feeling.. I grabbed the “paper” bag they had provided, probably for the same purpose, and held it. I didn’t like the paper smell and it just made things worse. I was trying to control it, but suddenly burst out like anything…

I threw all of it in that bag. Filled it up. I waved my hand to the cabin crew to ask for help, i.e. more paper bags. The girl said, “Sir we are already landing wait!”. Since no one is supposed to move around while take off or land. I was stuck for like 15 minutes while the plane descended and eventually landed and standing.

Now what happened meanwhile is what is funny and messy at the same time!!. I was holding the paper bag, little did I know it was getting all swollen from the bottom because of obvious reasons. And then, ******* !!!

All of it on my pants, the seat!! And what could I do!! Nothing! Why? “Sir the plane is already landing”

And I sat there, waiting for the immensely awesome and fresh fluid all over me, and slowly getting inside and everywhere!! I didn’t even have tissues at that point!

So what now…. The plane stops. I have an hour wait in the plane itself. The girl comes over, “Oh.. Don’t worry we will clean it up” I thought “WTH i am not a kid!! You guys could have saved this from happening”. So while the passengers got off, I was sitting embarrassed by the colorful fluid all over my pants…”

And I didn’t have any spare pants in my cabin luggage. So w00t now?

The cabin crew came with vacuum cleaners, cleaning the seat. Hard luck, they had to remove the seats I ask the man to vacuum clean my pants and dry it. *sigh* of relief no girls, except the cabin crew noticed all that!!

All settled, ready for take off 2. Settled down fine.. I thought I threw up everything already, and I didn’t have much left within. But what the heck, another landing and this time I was prepared!!!

I had 4-5 bags with me! yAy!! No mess this time but of course I threw up!!

And then I was totally worn out, exhausted and what not!!!

All in all, I loved the beautiful part of the journey and this embarrassing part also makes me LOL!

And guys who gave all those tips to me! Thank you! But those didn’t help! You know why? Because you gave them post-incident & not pre-incident!

PS: This is a personal blog. And I am posting this experience of mine not for you all to laugh at me. But when I come over and see this.. I could laugh at myself
