Chandra and I took our first flight together to Bombay. The security was very different then in the US. First we had our checked bags checked at security. Before our bags went thought the scanner they zip tied the suitcase zippers together. Then they went through the scanner. After we had our bags looked at we went to the ticket counter where we handed over our bags. After that we went through air port security. Most of the security in India separates men and women. The women had one line and the men had four because there are so many more men than women travelers. After we got through security we got banana nut muffins and found our gate.
Our flight was pretty uneventful. Chandra and I shared my neck pillow and slept the second we got in our seats. When we woke up we spent the rest of the time flipping through tv channels. While channel surfing we came across a news station talking about a plane crash that happened the night before near Delhi. There is no good time to find out about a plane crash but in a plane is definitely a bad time! Luckily our flight landed safely and we got our bags fairly fast. When we left the airport Chandra’s father was waiting for us with a cab and took us to their place. It was nice to meet Chandra’s parents and see their new place in Bombay.
