My first stop in my Scotland adventure is the airport (obviously).
However- not so obviously, is that I am taking a first class airport adventure.
I am flying British Airways first class. No, I didn't shell out $4,000 for the ticket- I got new credit cards to get the points with the bonus. I was concerned of having to sit for the extended period of time in a regular seat given recent medical issues.
Upon my parents dropping me off (thanks mom and dad!), I checked in and instantly had great service. They asked if I knew where to find the airport lounge, put a priority tag on my luggage and directed me to the first class security line (which is no line).
Upon arrival at the lounge I found the option of having dinner before my flight or snacking at the buffet (with a full bar and espresso maker).
While the first group of business men left me feeling under dressed, soon after, people started trickling in also clothed in jeans.
I enjoyed a cheese and cracker assortment with a couple (large) glasses of chardonnay.
Capped with a loving phone call from my husband- can't complain at all!
My favorite spectacles are..
.. the business man who hasn't gotten off the phone since I arrived..
..the older gentleman on his iPad and seemingly having a difficult time of it..
.. and the middle aged man who obviously has used some hair dye to hide his grays who can't figure out how to position his iPad so he can drink champagne and do whatever he is doing that is making birdie sounds at the same time (I almost offered to sell him an iPad case with stand, but thought better of it)..
