A trip to the airport...

I've just been on my ski trip. Yey! It was 41 boys, 6 sixth form girls and 6 teachers. I was obviously one of the sixth form girls.
We woke up bright and early at around 6ish to arrive at school for 7:15, and once we were there we were off. The hour coach journey to Leeds didn't take too long, funnily enough it took an hour. The airport was taken over by all of us, in the clearly permanent Jet2 terminal that had walls that moved from the air conditioning blowing on them. After that the day went swimmingly. It started with a 5 hour wait in the terminal due to delays, and then the plane was ironically cancelled due to snow, or so we thought. We later learnt that the plane was loaded with our bags and was safe, as was the runway, but the crew weren't available. Annoyed is not the word. So after that, we collected our bags, and the teachers arranged for us to get a plane two days later and for some of the money to be refunded. So, we sat and waited for the coach, which would take about an hour to get there. We ended up having to wait over 2 hours, as our coach broke down. Yey! So all grumbling we get on the coach, we travel for 20 minutes then have to transfer to a different coach as ours broke down, another break down.. Yey! So, yeah I would say that trip was very successful and everybody had a lot of fun. Well done Leeds Bradford Airport, you know how to deliver an enjoyable holiday.
