The day was 22 Dec and I was to fly MAA-CMB-AUH in UL J. Everything went excellently until 40 minutes before landing at AUH. Due to fog we had to divert to AAN where we spent 3 hours before flying to MCT where we had to wait on the aircraft until one hour after landing in MCT. We then spent the next 5 and a half hours in the transit hall presecurity in the MCT ghetto. Finally they put us in a Holiday Inn a second rate hotel fir J pax if you ask me. I write this story from the lobby of the holiday inn as I have checked out and prepare to leave for the airport to fly MCT-AUH on the same bird.
