We are on board flight 487 on our way to Honolulu.
We got away from home right on schedule and had no trouble at the border.
Susan fed us a fine lunch and then we were off to the airport
It was a little crowded but we had no problems at all and before we knew it we were on board.
Right away I knew we were headed to Hawaii. The Stewart was dressed in a Hawaiian shirt and wearing a shell necklace. The cabin smelled of tropical flowers. On each seat was a card with the schedule for the flight and it was scented… what a nice touch.
We are experiencing a bit of turbulence which is not a problem. The plane is really quite full. I am aware of only one empty seat.
About an hour into the flight we were offered meals so Ken and I opted to have to hot special which was aloha Pork. It was chunks of pork in a teriyaki sauce with rice. I can’t say it was great but it was not bad.
One thing different,,, usually there are screens located overhead in the plane and you rent earphones for two dollars or use your own to hear what is being played. One other plane had small screens located on the back of the seat in front of you. But for this flight you are given a chance to rent what looks like a personal DVD player and on that you could watch many many movies or news or sports etc. That rental was priced at 10.00. For families flying with children it is great because cartoons are among the choices.
Near the end of the flight the steward announced they would be coming by with the Aloha drink cart. Why was it Aloha? Because they were serving complimentary Mai Tais
Let the vacation begin!!!
