TRAVELLIN TO BRAND NEW BIAL





it ws 24th may,the next day after BIAL ws opened...i ws supposed to pick up my dad from the airport,id dint know much about the new airport,just knew tat it ws at a place named named devanahalli.i had seen it hoardings the last time i had went to nandi hills,so knew a bit about the route.firstly i had to enquire how to b thre.my dad's flight ws supposed to land at 6.10 pm.so i left home at around 3.30 to koramangala as i learnt from someone tat BMTC had launched bus services from thre.i waitwd n waited n finally got in a bus at around 4.30, the fare 80 bucks(the conductor didnt return me the 20 change of the 100 i had given him).both the driver n conductor wre confused about the route,they took a wrong turn in mekhri circle which cost us half an hour more,some of my fellow passengers were panickin about the delay as they could miss their flight..wen i tried to help the conductor about the route,it turned sour,the conductor didnt knew hindi or english.i finally i reached the airport at 6.20.i went to the arrival place n tried to go thro the arrivals monitor,bt it didnt help,there ws nothing written in the column arrived/delayed.i kept waiting n receivin innumberable calls from mom back at home in assam.at around 7 i went to the spicejet counter to enquire,they told tat the flight has landed...bt there ws no signs of dad for next one hour.in the mean time i had to pass the time by havin overpriced sandwichs at an airport eatery.i kept tryin dad's number but in vain.finaly dad arrived at around 8.20.the flight had landed at around 7.one hour and 20 mins??wow..i ws not able to get dad's number thanks to no signal for BSNL users.thankfully i had airtel.then we took a volvo back to my place.
