Costa Teguise; Sunday, 28 November, 2021

I had a transfer booked for 10am so I was able to have a relatively relaxed start to the morning with a later than normal breakfast and finish packing before checking out of the hotel and waiting for my transfer.

About 10 minutes after my transfer was supposed to have arrived I contacted the company who was organising the transfers and they were able to confirm that the drive was running late and would be with me shortly – which considering it was a transfer to the airport was a bit poor on their side.

In the end by the time we made it to the airport there was only 90 minutes until the flight was due to depart – in fact the plane was already landing as I walked into the terminal. Thankfully the queue for checkin wasn’t too long – it looks like most other peoples transfers had been early so they were already through as I had the 141st issued boarding pass for the flight!

The queue for security was lengthy, but did at least move relatively quickly, even so by the time I was through security my flight was already boarding, and, after I’d made a quick detour to the toilet as it was a four hour flight ahead of me, was at last call when I got to the gate.

All in all, a bit of a stressful end to a holiday that had been more stressful than it needed to be.
