Those words dropped like a thousand tonnes of bomb in my Inbox as soon as I was out of bed this morning. The first thing that crossed my mind, DEEP SHIT! WHERE AM I GONNA BUNK? THE FOLLOWING DAY IS THE OFFICIAL REGISTRATION DAY!
Dropped outa bed and immediately, I did a few things:
#1: Called up Nepline Travel and attempting to change my Amsterdam-Bristol flight. They informed me it's impossible cuz my transit period will be too short if I changed to an earlier flight. A minimum of 3 hours is needed? And I was like asking myself, which idiot created this rule? Then the other half in me slap me in return: Which idiot would ask this kinda question? How if your flight delay? Oh ok... Yeah. I had been an idiot for some time. Then I checked KLM website. There's a flight at 12.30pm and there's still abundant seats. Screw that fella! Not intending to call back cuz I doubt it can change the situation=leave it to last resort!
I popped a second question asking the check in bag allowance can be extended to 30kgs since KLM allows 30kgs. That guy promise to call me up in 30 minutes time, and I have been waiting for the past 2 hours. No intention to call back ~waste money. Gambling with the extra 10kgs!
#2: Tried calling the other 3 girls who will be flying with me. Negative response. Neither of them picked up nor return call.
#3: Send a few messages to the seniors there. They gave me promising response. *relief* A second thought crossed my mind. It's way of a hassles to bunk in their place. P suggested that I call up WC instead of the Dominion Group (which handles the accomodation of WC)
Right, I will call them up and see what awaits me this afternoon...
FURTHER Suggestions?
