And we’re off and running!

Uber are having a fine old time with their pricing, now I have wait and save, standard, priority, and a dozen varieties of other options. All of them were more expensive than the local taxi service. I’ve notice Uber pricing steadily climbing, I swear they’re experimenting to see at what point it becomes too much, that point was today. Local taxi arrived quickly and traffic was light so they made short work of the trip to the airport.

The airport is pretty quiet despite the fact that there is a whole host of LCC departures in the next couple of hours. First stop was the checkin desks for a document check. Heaven knows why this is required, that passport goes through BA systems multiple times every month but so be it.

Fast path was quick and easy despite the traditional secondary screening of the iPad.

Now it’s time for a nice glass of Castelnau in Aster and Thyme, courtesy of Priority Pass.
