Lucky Again

When Max and I checked into the Malev flight to Buda I hade a rude awakening. Sorry sir but this is the First Class check in. Your in seat 29A. It broke my heart, yes you do sometimes get spoiled on press trips. I took it in stride with a few quick oneliners with Max. Next thing I know I ran into a writer from years ago. After some small talk she mentioned something about the lounge. Two and two together pointed to a front of the plane ticket.

It hurts when your the guy that didn't rate. I resigned myself to a long flight surrounded by crying kids. Then I heard our names over the gate speakers, "please come to the check in". My streak remains intact. We moved up to row 3, the same row as the other writer. My faith in the flight gods remains. However I was reminded it could all end on the whim of an agent. Again will try to keep in touch if the luck continues! If not will fill in on return.
