The life of a travelling man does not always run smooth........

When sitting in a hotel waiting to fly you just never know what you are in for as is so easily illustrated by the email I received at 10pm on a nice Saturday evening while waiting to fly from London’s Heathrow airport (yes London does have nice weather sometimes)

Now as it turned out the disruption on this occasion was not too bad, I ended up at my final destination, after 2 flights and about 4,500 miles, only about 90 minutes late. The second of my flights was quite interesting as it flew straight through a thunderstorm with all the turbulence that you would expect and the view out the window was nothing less than spectacular as the storm raged on all around the plane.

I do take my hat off (figuratively not literally) to the airline crew and support staff who under these conditions (even though recent media attention paints a different picture) usually rise to the occasion and do a superb job of getting me to where I want to go as safely as possible.

I do get to see a wide variety of weather conditions and some truly amazing sights with all the travelling that I do and that’s just one of the many things that I love about my job.

  Always learning

  Posted on 02 April 2018 in Blog

  Back safe and warm in Synchro Towers after a trip up to my old hometown of Worcester for a four day training course. Over in the support team we don't have the life on the road of our Global Training and Implementation Team, and leaving the family at home to head out can be tough, but it's vital to keep up to date with the current standards and features.
