We woke up very early, even before receiving the hotel’s wake up call. We packed quickly and went to the lobby to check out and have breakfast. We arrived at 6:30 am and the restaurant wasn’t supposed to open before 7:00 am, but we were served breakfast anyway, the cook even made us omelettes, and we ate quickly so we can leave the hotel on time.
A taxi took us to the airport. It was early and still dark. A few people were going to work but there was no traffic.
The girl at the Swiss checking counter talked French in a cute way. She gave us good seats in the economy section. She was kind to answer all my airplane questions about our flight. Joumana was patient enough to wait, not without adorably rolling her eyes!
Zurich’s airport was beautifully designed. I remembered it was ranked among the 10 best airports in the world. It was clean, practical and cosy. A subway train took us to terminal E. On our way, Joumana and I spotted a handsome tanned man in his early 40s, who had a child with him. We nicknamed him papa.
We waited for our flight in Swiss’s VIP lounge, where we had cookies and tea, checked our emails, and read the newspapers. The lounge was very spacious, with high ceilings covered with solar panels. It is always pleasant to sit in a well designed lounge before taking a long flight. If there were shower facilities, I would have freshened up, even if I had already washed myself in the hotel room about two hours before!
