The Perth to Johannesburg flight is always full, there is crying babies, children darting in and out but never seeming to get in the way or trill my up. I find this a pretty decent flight considering I don't enjoy a flight full of children.
The flight departs at 23:40 and is a very popular route, for many this is a connecting flight to the O.R. Tambo International Airport for other African destinations. For me, this is a work flight for my eight weeks on, two weeks off leave rotation. I am only new to the company, but I already feel like I have been making this commute for a while.
Looking at the clientele, these are not really workers in the sense that I am used to, these are families looking like they heading off on holiday and in a relaxed mood. I am already starting to switch on, my mind is looking to the job, I already have my hand-over notes and I am beginning to address the pertinent issues in my mind.
For me, I will be arriving around 04:30, heading through immigration, picking up my bags and straight to check-in for the company flight to the Democratic Republic of Congo. I have a little time to burn, check-in opens at 05:00 and closes at 06:00, so I have a little leeway here.
I know my way around the airport, I know where I have to go and I can get there in time without too many hassles. This trip is beginning to become familiar, I know the routine and I can just get on with it.
