Completed BSF Launch Journey - Back from US

 

Reposted from 24-June-2022

As I complete my BSF Launch journey…

 

As I checked in at the airport, the queue was long and the check in was very slow. 

 

At the counter, i requested for an isle seat. This will be a 16 hours flight and it will be extremely torturous, as how i experienced it when i flew into Dallas frm Doha, but with company of Brother Jerry, it was very much better. 

 

Now that i have to fly alone, i can only hope for an isle seat by myself, so i can move around whenever i need to stretch. The long distance means “sit until the backside pain”. 

 

To my disappointment, the staff told me, sorry this is a full flight and there is no more isle seat available. You hv to sit in the middle. Well, in my heart, God this is for you. I accept with a cheerful heart, though i don really like it. 

 

At the boarding gate, another announcement was made, stating this is a full flight. You cannot bring more than 1 luggage, and hv to check in additional pieces and they are unable to entertain request to change seats. 

 

So we started boarding around 10pm. I head to 29E. It was at middle row, where there are 4 seats. So im seated in the middle. With my left and right both still vacant. Finally and “black” man came and he said, u know i flew Qatar always and i never got this kind of seat. Replying to him, yeah i asked for isle too but its a full hse. Around 10minutes later, the crew started to shut the aircraft door. He told me,’ do i plan to grab the seat to my left which is an isle seat. He said if i don, he wants to take it. 

 

I offered him, yeah u can go ahead. 

 

Then he saw a seat in front, and told me, why not u go there? Dont worry, there is no more people boarding. Go, the worse can happen is the crew ask u to return to your seat. 

 

So i moved over. Here I am, seated at Isle, in front with spacious leg room as it is first row of this section. I am super comfortable, i had a good sleep, i have no neighbour, so plenty of space. 

 

Plus a bonus: the aircond is so cold that i really enjoyed, and perhaps why i got a good sleep. 

 

 

Why is God jus so gracious? 

 

It wasn’t what i wanted at the beginning, but is better than what i hoped for.

Prayers from brothers and sisters truly have moved God’s hands for His favor.

 

Glory to God.
