We had to take one night shelter in the nearby hotel in and around the airport.
Though I was informed about the Non operation of the royal Brunei flight at the night by Manish himself in my house in the evening but we wanted to confirm it from the royal Brunei airline office in the night in the airport so we had decided to go to airport at night and if possible we shall stay at any hotel nearby airport.
I boarded off the flight in royal Brunei airlines at 10 O'clock morning in the next day
The airport was fully filled with the customers/ passengers of the flight of the previous
Night which was called off due to bad weather. I saw manish along with other two Indian Aim student named Rahul singh and Kris Aggarwala who were flying with royal Brunei from the kolkatta , they arrived from the delhi flight.
At last our flight landed in Singapore. But we came to know that the connecting flight from Brunei to manila is after two days which is rather unpleasant.
So we thought we must do something in Singapore before the flight lands in Bandar seri Begawan the capital of Brunei.As Planned we took some time off and we got out from the flight once the Brunei flight landed in Singapore.We took initiative to talk to the royal Brunei and other airlines so that we can reach manila with in next 24 hours instead of reaching in next three days. It was Kris 's idea to talk to Singapore airlines as they had code sharing agreement with the Brunei airline they were willing to take us in their flight to manila from Singapore with out any extra money to be paid.
As we got the green signal, we asked the Brunei airlines astaff to take out our luggages from Brunei airlines and load it in the Singapore airlines next day morning.
We were given a accommodation to stay in the small hotels room inside the magnificent airport (probably the best airport I have seen in my life till now) .
Four of us stayed and spend our night of 5th January in the single hotel room
Inside the airport lounge. It was nice and comfortable stay in the room.
Nearby the hotel room there was a good quality gym , reading room and a
Fantastic swimming pool .The whole of the change airport of Singapore was fantastic which is filled with a lot of hitech facilities like bars, restaurant, wire less Internet , mobile charging units, video games arcade etc etc. If we want to have the impression of a country from its airport then Singapore will come on top followed by kualalumpur, Hong kong, Bangkok , Bandar seri Begawan and manila. Amongst the airports I have visited. Really in this regard our airports fare badly in comparison to the Top class airports of South asia/ south east asia.
So next day we wake up at 7 oclock had our break fast and checked in for the flight from the Singapore flight departure .In a big airport like the changi airport one has to keep aware of gate numbers, departure gate and other important things lest one may forget in the vast crowd of passengers in the airport.
We boarded off the flight to manila at about 10 o clock, the flight journey was . peaceful and we reached manila after almost four to five hours.
We reached manila airport at the evening time on 5th january ,2004 at 5: 30 pm.
