they couldn't land up north because of the big military exercise that
taking place up there, plus it would have meant staying on the plane for
hours in the heat with no facility's they ruled Djakarta out due to
having to get fresh crews in as they would have been out of hours they
did their best by us but its still a tiring exercise mind you the crew
would have been just as tired as they stayed with the flight. It must be
a real bummer having to fly business class I know I used to hate it when
I had to fly back business from Dubai with SIA each time, Your daughters
schedule sounds pretty full on
