And now for my final flight of 2017, the continuing RGN-SIN sector on the MDL-RGN-SIN flight.
After disembarkation, a transit cards and a brief security screening was conducted for transit passengers. Seemed like most of the passengers were in transit (who would want to fly 3hrs up to Mandalay and then 1hr down to Yangon when there are multiple daily flights direct from SIN to RGN, unless you are an AV Geek).
Into the terminal, which actually felt a bit like Changi as it was developed by the Changi group I think.
As there was an hour's transit stop, we tried our luck and enquired with the ground staff if we could go to the lounge as we were starving from no proper food served on the last sector. Ground staff told us to try and guided us towards the direction of the lounge, and reminded that boarding would commence in 30min. We headed to the Mingalar Sky Lounge, which seemed to be used by all airlines, and the staff welcomed us in after taking photocopies of our boarding passes and transit cards.
The lounge was spacious and nicely designed. It was also not crowded then.
View from the lounge.
There is a decent buffet spread, with a range of hot/cold food and finger food available.
Soon, boarding announcement was made in the lounge for the flight. Boarding has commenced earlier than scheduled. Made our way back to the gate, which was just down the escalator from the lounge.
