Well I could think of worse places to be stuck!
It's a reminder to us that we live on planet earth and will be dictated to by it not the other way around. At the same time as this there's a Typhoon in Japan.
Still it will be interesting to see if any of the airlines operating in and out the last few days experience any engine issues due ash, not that we will ever hear about it if so.
As a pax I've been delayed by weather and yes it sucks but I'd rather have a cold Bintang in my hand than two engines quiting due ash... Etc!
It's the way of the airlines today, push push push around the limits. Good on J* and V for showing some integrity.
As for the post re old skool pilots I'll take that as tounge in cheek.
Hoping the mountain stops being angry very soon so all the kiddies can get back to school on time
