Shopping days in Houston Texas!

At the end, I swapped my London and Dhaka layover with Houston flight, which brough me more flying hours and some SHOPPING at my favourite store....Abercrombie & Fitch! Let's say...we used 16 hours and 28 minutes flying from Dubai to Houston, non stop! The longest haul flight in our company, i have done this flight as passengers twice but never as crew...this time i definitely experienced how tiring it is. During the briefing, someone important was missing! THE PURSER AND ONE OF THE SFS! hahahaha~yeah it is weird huh! Because both of them were pulled out on standby, so they will be getting late to briefing...even though the other SFS took leadership in conducting briefing...safe talk and positioning were done...and guess what the purser still hasn't showed up...all we were waiting! So captain said anyway we should go without her...lol~ later on the purser showed up on the flight, yeah quite late. She told us because she lives quite far away from CBC so she really needed time to get ready, when scheduling called her at 6am she already advised them that she needed some time to get ready, on the other hand, the departure time is 9:05...yes scheduling called her a bit late...or too late! Anyway she made it!




FUUUUULLLLL cabin oh yes~very interesting for such a long haul flight, the only good thing was not too many call bells! which was unusual for US flights, but the unusual thing happened as well....that we ran out of our water and as you like snacks!! No wonder how thirsty and hungry they were! 16 hours and half is really long for a human! As usual, I always take the second break if no one wants it. We had 5 hours rest in the crew rest compartment, which was okay...not bad! but the way back since the flight time is shorter only 14 hours so we had 4 hours and 15 minutes...which means yeah probably we deserved a bit more rest the way going to Houston, however, it was a full cabin so we couldnt finish our service earlier...as to gain more rest time.

Houston, the forth biggest city in USA, somehow it looks like a ghost city~rarely see people on the street walking not even tourists...well not many sightseeing places to go except NASA. So all I did in Houston during 2 days was shopping in Galleria Mall, the largest one in Houston, and why there!? Because Abercrombie & Fitch is there! Oh Yeah~my favourite clothes, has been a looooong time not going there. As we dont have ANF in Dubai nor other places and countries i have been...hence, this time I descided to buy some...i mean some....almost cost me $300 USD...hahaha~from shirts to jeans, from underwear to FIERCE cologne! hell~FIERCE smells so nice! smells so A&F! WHAT A CHARMING AND SEDUCTIVE PERFUME! it's A&F fans' must buy! Since then, I have been using it just couple drops and make me feel so Abercrombie! hehehehe~

Right, my Houston trip is indeed a shopping trip~same as other colleagues. Is that true all flight stewards/stewardesses love shopping around? No wonder why~I am feeling it now...
