An Israeli in the bay

On my way again…

KLM 747 seatingI’m flying transatlantic again, this time direct from San Francisco to Amsterdam and then to Tel Aviv (after a 12 hour layover). I’m sorry about the lack of updates, there was quite a lot going on, but I just didn’t have the stamina to post.

So, today I’m flying to Israel to visit family and friends. I’m bringing two suitcases, one huge and one small. The huge suitcase is full of boardgames, while the other includes some clothes. I’m also carrying a backpack full of electronic equipment (laptop, hard drive, two phones, three iPods, etc.).

On the Internet, I was assigned a really bad seat on the back of the plane, but I could change it to an aisle seat somewhere in the middle of the plane. However, at the airport I asked the check-in agent for a better seat (given my Platinum status) and was reassigned to seat 11B. Though not as good as my favorite 11E seat, it’s not that bad. It’s a center seat in the smaller front cabin.

  1. And where did you write the post from?
    I’m a little confused about that…

  2. I wrote the post from the lounge in San Fransisco Airport (SFO). I’m now in the lounge at AMS.
