My colleague from MIT and I kicked off our very long journey early afternoon on Friday (19 October). The mission is again scientific, i.e., to attend the the 15th ISEA conference in Ahmedabad, India. We’ll be hiding there for the whole week until the 27th of October.
A little bit about our flights. Of course, the service on the American carrier, which we took from New York to Dublin, are ——. The last two flights are operated by Qatar airlines. The service is so elegant. The food is great, the crew are so friendly, just everything looks so fantastic. We transit through Doha, a city which I’ve never been before. It is very elegant airport. Anyway, the transit was very smooth and we boarded our next (last) flight of the trip on time. One thing that I noticed on Qatar Airlines is about the crew member onboard. On both of our two flights, I can say the entire crew members are either Indian or Asian (looks like Philippino or somewhere around), I did not see any one from Middle East. I wonder why? We arrived in Ahmadabad about 30min earlier than scheduled. When we steeped out of the airport we found a guy holding our name, waiting for us. He drove us to our hotel, and finally I settled in my room at about 3am on Sunday. Humm! I started my journey at 2:30pm on Friday and arrived at my destination at 3am on Sunday???
