This is going to be a long long trip

I had a flight canceled last night, due to strong winds and so the company compensated by sending us to a hotel, which was cool.
Now back to the airport, next day.

My flight to Athens leaves in 3h.
I'll then spend the whole night at the airport and overall 12h. I have checked but all the hotels around the airport are above my current budget and also I don't want to move all the way from the airport to the center just to sleep at a cheap hostel. Too much trouble and carrying my backpack around for medium comfort.
I hope I can find some corner to crash for the night at the airport.

Tomorrow noon I am taking a 4h flight to Doha, and then have a 9h layover there. I'm not planning on exiting the airport there.
My previous flight was transiting through Singapore but I had to reschedule the whole flight after yesterday's cancellation and that was the next affordable choice.

Finally on the 18th I'm flying to Denpasar, a 9h flight - I can sleep on the plane - and I'll be there in the afternoon...Bali...

I haven't flown anywhere since visiting Memphis, USA, on business in 2018 and your description reminds my why I don't miss it!

Good luck and I hope you aren't delayed again.

Update 2 - I've slept so good and so deep... Yes I woke up few times but nothing different than Lucy cat waking me up! In the morning a woman from the stuff woke me up. I was sleeping so deeply that it was filled with people all around me, talking, announcements regarding flights.. Nothing was waking me 😁 I slept about 6-7 hours, I feel good.. I got a coffee now!
Good morning..
My next flight leaves in about 4 hours to Doha, Qatar.

Did you delete a post by mistake? I hit the button to react to your latest post about being in the huge airport and watching a documentary about the life of trees and SW suddenly told me the post didn't exist.

@ninalanyon @Quimliqer I am sorry and I appreciate you both for taking the time and reading my stories...
I just deleted most of my posts as I do regularly these days and I deleted that one too as I felt like, why am I writing all these. Please bear with me, it'll pass. I am sorry I created confusion. I'm tired, but all is moving ahead..
