Lovely!

I forgot to say, at Phuket Airport I managed to bum my way onto an earlier flight so I could enjoy the 1st class lounge in Bangkok for longer. In fact, I simply asked if I could take the earlier flight since we were at the airport quite early, and there was no problem. As it happened, the HKT-BKK flights seemed to be running with about 40 minutes delay that night (18th January). So it doesn't hurt to ask!
