time to use your miles then with KLM. Never really got bad experience with KLM flying from JKT to NL. But not really a top service one should add. SQ still the best…Malaysia Airlines also good one.

@FinallyWoken:
Don’t forget not to wear flip flop when you fly back to Aberdeen I did that twice..I totally forgot to actually wear warm shoes..and when I arrived in Schiphol (May here in NL not always sunny and pleasant most of the time wet and cold), had to immediately open my luggage there to change shoes (hehehe) stupid me..

Bener mbak, KLM dari Indonesia ke Eropa emang agak rese. Pengalaman terakhir akhir bulan Januari kemarin, bikin aku mau nabok salah satu staff lokalnya yang bercokol di airport saking nggak sopannya sama customer. Ah sudahlah, mungkin aku juga harus pindah ke SQ (sayang sih, miles nya udah banyak

@The Writer: ah, but how about people who travel to Europe? My mother went to UK with KLM and didn’t get water even though she had been asking for hours. A friend traveled from Israel back to Singapore and had to argue that she, already provided an empty bottle, was entitled to have some water filled up, and the flight attendant only had to fill it up with water.But the flight attendant kept saying she had to throw the bottle (why??), and after looong argument and long face, finally did what my friend asked. I, on the other hand, always stick with SQ.

@Kampret nyasar: I imagine if you travel with your uniform, must be real hassle to take everything off and put them back on again. But again, you’re a guy, you don’t feel the need to bring eye cream, night cream, face mask and everything else…

I remember those days when traveling to and from NY, gosh! the security has been a great hurdles.

Travel light, that’s what saves me from all of those.

Last January when I was in Amsterdam to catch a plane home, I didn’t need to take my boots off. Maybe the regulation is changed?

About the water, there’s water tap by the toilet’s outside wall (assuming if you’re taking KLM) You can just ask for an empty plastic glass and fill it yourself or you can always sneak in to the pantry to “steal” some peanuts, chocolates and orange juice, the stewardess, unfortunately, won’t mind if you turn up in the pantry at 2am

@Colson: I know! I love the sturdy sailors part, hmm..

@Toni: thank you. At the moment I’m at the boarding room in Singapore, heading to Jakarta. I haven’t slept for 33 hours. No, I’m not cranky – just broke, since there’s a great sale season here.

@Andi: my dear, that’s why you should invest on a good pair of slip-on shoes. Tod’s loafers for example *wink

I love this post!

I am still waiting on your tips. How to take off shoes gracefully at the security check point, Anita?

Please please share ...

Colson is right, travel without hectic formalitis would be enjoyable compare to nowadays. Great tips Anita and I can’t stop smiling with smelly feet. Have a safe trip and welcome back again to Indonesia and enjoy.
