Well let me start off by saying sorry, the site was down for a while because I was changing hosts. You might say to yourself what you just got a new host. Thats true, but it really sucked. I found a host that seems to be a lot better, both in terms of performance and in customer service so I’m going to stick with them for a while and see how it turns out.
Now lets get back to the topic at hand. I finally made it to Tokyo yesterday night, but that was after a long flight. This isn’t bad in itself, but I had to fly on Northwest that would be NWA for all you hip cats out there. The flight was incredibly uncomfortable and what really turned me off was you have to pay for alcohol, thats like a shot in the arm and a time warp back to the 90s. I haven’t flown international or long haul on a American airline in about 8 years (the last time was delta in 98) I have been mostly using carriers from other countries like Virgin Atlantic, and JAL. What It seems like US airlines are missing is service quality. On Virgin and JAL quality was top notch. Meals were not great, but they still tasted okay and drinks were free. They also give a lot of food too. NWA the service was spotty and the food was horrible. Another thing the last meal was served an hour before landing. Some people didn’t recieve a hot portion of their meal until 15mins before landing, and they only gave them $10.00 voucher for inflight food on their next flight as compensation. Although I wasnt part of this group it sure felt messed up that they only gave them a voucher.
Now back to Tokyo. I arrived last night and had about the same type of first day I had last time, went to sushi, then to a bar. So it felt really ãªã¤ã‹ã—. I didnt take many pictures today so i can really upload what I have right now, but I’ll be sure to do it tonight or tomorrow.
