Well ladies and gents,
Dispatch screwed us again! We were told that we were booked in the Corinthian. Landing at 2300 we headed over to the hotel, only to waste 20 minutes there finding out that there were no rooms for us there and the hotel was full.
Transport took us instead to the Four Seasons hotel. Now before you start saying anything, this is unlike any four seasons hotel you have ever seen. Its big on Libyan style and not even close to the chain that we all know and wish we could stay in on a regular basis.
It was better than sleeping in the plane with the APU on but not by a whole lot. Gunship came down and met us and was a big help and we all wished that we had more time in the city to learn about the place but we had a 1500 push and had to run.
Excellent info on the African forum. Did not know about it and anyone going there might want to take a look. Not sure if I can post the forum link here so anyone interested pls email or PM me.
