Meeting New Friends at the Airport

May 14, 2009

Months ago, my sister-in-law informed us that her friend/officemate along with the Australian husband was coming  home to the Philippines.  The couple had to visit her hometown, Davao City in Mindanao. The flight was from Sydney to Manila and a connecting flight from Manila to Davao.  However, the connecting flight was yet scheduled for the following morning.  That would have left them waiting at the airport for the entire night.  Recognizing the foreseen delay, my sis-in-law called us up requesting us to give her friends company for the night. Unfortunately, hubby had to attend to official business affairs early that evening so I was left on my own meeting these friends. I was instructed by hubby to bring them to Sofitel (formerly Philippine Plaza) and he would meet us there in his car.

I realized, having no car of your own is a real drawback for someone who had just arrived at the airport.  I came to meet them commuting and had just planned to hire a car to CCP Complex.  However, it took me a lot of talking and dealing with car service company staff for an available car service.  That brought me to remember the car service jfk an old friend mentioned.  The commendable car service was offered by Go Airlink NYC rendering a car service like no other. If only we have them here, the situation would have been all far different.

Anyway, we were able give them some live band entertainment at the Siete Pecados  after a sumptuous dinner at the Outback in Glorietta, Makati.  We had a great  night.  Then we brought them back to NAIA few hours before their flight to Davao.
