You have been upgraded :)

"Excuse me but don't I need a part of my Boarding Pass back to board the plane?", said I

"Oh yes, I am just upgrading you to the Business Class" said she.

And then all I remember is having the biggest smile pasted on my face till I got to my seat.
There was I, with a seat so comfortable it would put a Mercedes to shame. A mini bar on the right, a huge screen in the front, socks and a warm blanket to make me more comfortable, I was ready to FLY!

The journey was the best I could ask for and Emirates definitely knows how to deliver the best. To top it all I was in the freaking A380 - means, I was sitting on the top floor of the biggest plane used to fly travellers :) I was introduced to all the seat settings and various button by an air steward who was assigned only to 4 flyers. The food was tastier, the alcohol costlier and the seat could be turned into a bed! When I asked for tea, I was also given Godiva chocolates to accompany with the tea. When I got bored of looking at the big screen, there was a tab on the right to keep you company. Everybody who knows me, knows that when I drink, I have to drink a Mojito! And of course there had to be cocktails available for business class!

Flying Business Class was definitely a check off my Bucket List, actually I didn't even have it on my bucket list ;) haha.. There are somethings that you never even dream of or think of doing. Just cuz they either cost a lot of money or you are just underestimating yourself. Here I was underestimating my luck...

When I was back at work, a colleague said, "these things never happen to me."

I said, "these things never happened to me as well."

"So there is still Hope!"

"Yes there is still Hope :)"
