Fortuitous Upgrade!

As we prepared to board the flight from Tokyo to Incheon, I was
surprised when the attendant scanned my ticket and the computer flashed
"Seat Not Found". Uh-Oh, what could this mean. She says, "Are you
flying with Mr. Torgler?"

"Yes, I am." She tears up my ticket then hands Bill and I new tickets.

"You are upgraded to Business Class."

"Cool!" As Bill and I march into the Business Class seating and take
our seats in the very comfortable lounge chair seats we are immediately
offered a pre flight beverage. Back in coach, a beer is $5, its
complimentary in Business Class.

As soon as we take-off, we convert seats to lounge chair mode and kick
back and snooze for a while. We wake up just in time for the in flight
meal. I had missed another beverage earlier when Bill could not wake
me. The attendant told Bill "The way you were snoring before you got
up...there's no way you're waking him up if he's as tired as you." But,
I did wake up for dinner. Yes, that's real silverware, not plastic in
the picture. Today's menu: Chicken Curry with Rice, mushroom broth soup
and a nice chardonay.
