FACECARD BLING

Holllla. This is THE card I’ve been waiting for over a month now. And I’m glad I’ve finally got my hands on it ! It’s total BLING in your pocket. Forget about your diamond incrusted grillz, dis is da shiz foolz. That card entitles you to many, say countless discounts around Dubai and also overseas. [...]

DOWNLOADABLES #44 / It’s Bedtime For Toys!

Cassius Clay, some of you may know that name, yes It’s Mohammed Ali’s previous name or the name he was born under before changing. And did you know he sang ? No, me neither, he released a couple tunes back in the days and we have one for you today, a cover of Ben E. [...]

Jakarta Layover…

Hum. How can I say. Well I think this was the best layover so far. Our trip started in briefing room, even before our briefing we were trying to organise a safari (which never occured) and everyone was happy to go there. Which makes a big difference with the karma on-board. The crew was really [...]

Cabin Crew prepare dancefloor for arrival

OOhhhhh dear. Another night, another nightclub. It’s way too cheap here to not go out. Especially when Emirates pays for our drinks, that’s when it gets even better. Plan B (the club in Wafi City) was our destination tonight, and boy did it rock. DJ played some good ol’ tunes mixed with some commercial goodness. [...]

DOWNLOADABLES #43 / Taking it real easy…

Hi all, new DOWNLOADABLES available, it’s 4-3 / it’s for free (it rhymes). Taking it very easy these past few days, all i’m looking at now is layovers ! So I’ll be outta Dubai and that is what’s good, meaning less spending, more saving, seeing more green and breathing fresh air. Less beige too. Will [...]

Pyramids, Pharaons, Nile, Egyptian Hospitality… Well NONE of that for you Airboy

DOWNLOADABLES #42

I’ve managed to recover from my Tehran (Iran) flight, only sleeping a mere 2 hours before duty. My sleeping pattern is all screwed up. Crew was really nice. Straight forward and helpful. The way back was a little more tidious but overall was nice, quick & easy. I actually like turnarounds. It’s just nice to [...]

Arhgggh these Fridays….

A conversation with Evita…
Fridays here are like Sunday elsewhere. über-boring. Everything is shut, no one in the city and it’s the only day one can actually enjoy the fact he has a balcony because the noise from Sheikh Zayed Road is reduced by something like 2%. Thankfully enough, Airboy had gone to get is haircut [...]

Airboy’s favourite Toddler

Hey I promised I’d post some pictures of Sebastien, Thea’s new born baby. So here you go :

Ain’t he cute ! aaaaaaawwwww… Wish you the best !

A feeling from hell.

I bet someone before had the same ordeal as I’ve experienced today. I came to the conclusion, this very day, to get my hair trimmed. It was getting on my nerves big time. For common people, making their way to the hairdresser is not a big deal, but I’d rather have my leg swaped than [...]

Dubai – Singapore – Melbourne – Singapore – Dubai

Hey, now wonder I wasn’t updating the blog the past few days, no wonder my phone didn’t answer, no wonder my emails kept coming in, but never found a way out, no wonder I was absent from MSN for a total of around 5 days ! Yes Sodwee went on a little trip across the [...]

MotherOfSodwee finally embraces technology.

Today was one of a kind for me. I saw my Mother actually, pro-actively, use the computer back home ! One might say “welll errrr… you know Ben errr… your Mother probably knows how to use a keyboard, and the mouse and press the power button so why are you going on about this ??!!”.

DOWNLOADABLES #42 / Shut Up & Let Me Go

I really think the guy who chooses the music for the iPod Ads is a GENIUS. Not only does he pick hyped up little bands or artists (according to the blogosphere always) but manages to send them to stardom in a few seconds from airing these Ads… So the lucky ones who got prime-time across [...]
