Party of 5 on the cancelled CX708 BKK-HKG today.
1 DM, 2 GO, 1 SL, 1 GR

SMS received last night saying our flight was cancelled.

Went to airport at 7am this morning. (Luckily decided not to try the CX616 that was forced to return to BKK!)

Only 1 seat available on CX700.
DM (me) got on.

The other 4 continued to wait. I told them to ask for seats on other airlines (TG / EK / RJ) if CX could not get them on CX flight. Apparently quite full today.

In the end they were given seats on EK J. Everybody relieved to be back!
