Since the waiting list to go up to the viewing section of the suspended walkway would have caused Willard (and his travelling companions) to miss his flight, he had to be content with messing around in the fountains outside.

Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA), and after the lofty heights of Malaysian Airlines First Class service yesterday, Willard has hit bottom with a resounding THUMP! The airline has chosen to close both of it's lounges in the main airport building, and is directing business class passengers onto the monorail service to the satelite terminal. However, this is quite a trek, and makes it a difficult choice between the comfort of the lounge or actually catching your flight. This is NOT a good start to a "Premium Travel Experience", and Willard doesn't look happy!

Finally on the plane, and Willard settles down to a glass of bubbly, after the 45 minute ground delay after boarding. Yesterday, he was sipping Dom Perignon on the flight over from Heathrow, today the Champagne on offer is "Joseph Perrier", who Willard thinks, must be Laurent Perrier's poorer long lost brother, sadly held back in the family business by non-functioning tastebuds.

Moving swiftly on to the meal, and things do improve, with an acceptable Light Meal of Lemon Chicken, though, given the delay, the flight is now flying very much in "Dinner" territory, the food is tasty and welcomed.

And so, after our hair-raising trip through immigration and over to the Domestic terminal at Bangkok (Malaysian refused to check us through to our Thai Airways flight, and, given the nearly 1 hour delay to the sechedule of the flight from Kuala Lumpur, I can't help but think that they knew something we didn't at check-in!) so we find ourselves in the newly refurbished Thai Domestic lounge, sipping soft drinks and enjoying the ecclectic selection of snacks that Thai offers.
