I don't know about you, but I had a great time over the years being forced to spend time in expensive hotels because the people who were organising things (STC) had failed to get their act together.

One I remember well was landing in Bermuda and our Ground Eng found a fault which would prevent engine start the next morning. No problem, we signalled UK gave them the part number and details of BOAC flights from Heathrow. The part would arrive in time to enable us to depart on schedule.

Well, that was the plan!!! We finally got the 4th spare and departed after 5 arduous (?) days.
