What did you thinking about while you’re waiting for Int’l flight (departure) for the first time. ?

Question

Are you agree or disagree in these statement?

Is airport a basin of sentiments/emotions, it’s like a purgatory (a place between heaven and h**l)?

Arrival area is joyous place (a heaven) while,

Departure is sad (h**l) place

Answer 1

My first overseas departure was a pleasure trip. So I was thinking, and feeling excited at the same time, what that side of the world (my destination) actually looks like.

Answer 2

The first time I was on an international flight was when I was 6 years old when my mom was about to get us to live with her in the UK and I did cry for the first time while entering the airport cuz imma miss my grandparents and my cuzin, and when I was at the gate, I got excited cuz imma be riding a real airplane.!!!

Answer 3

well, I'm not thinking anything h**l or heaven. What I'm thinking was the food being served in the airplane. Chicken or Tuna? LOL.

Answer 4

"wow, there sure are a lot of boxes here"

Answer 5

the waiting was exciting. going to a new place is always exciting.

Answer 6

i didn't have time to think nor deal with my emotions, i almost miss my flight. i was at the airport, 30 minutes before my flight. imagine the long queues in NAIA?

the arrival was great..i was very elated to have gone to a new place for the first time..

Answer 7

well i am not religious and dont believe in heaven or h**l, but departing and arriving is fantastic both ways.....when you are about to leave to go somewhere its excitement, and when you are coming home, although the trip is over its still always nice to be home and see things that are familar.....Departure is not "h**l"    having a painful sickness that is slowly killing you is h**l!

  Travel is something to enjoy no matter what end of the trip you're at!

Answer 8

Wondering if the plane would go down or not. After that though just the excitement of going to another country for the first time was the only thing. I travel alot now but when I'm on a plane I think about the kid I was when I first travelled. I'm glad it was the Philippines as my first international destination. Haven't stopped going back and everytime I leave I only have more reasons to return. One of the few most unique places left on this earth in my honest opinion.  

Answer 9

Just looking for a place to smoke.

Answer 10

Well put... it wasn't my first time flying but I remember the first time I had to leave my girlfriend (now my ex) in the Philippines. I was going on a two month summer vacation from school but it was still a heartbreaker to leave her. I called her from the airport and I always remember that moment everytime I travel though NAIA.

I just found out that my trip to Manila this December includes a 5 hour stop at Singapore.

Thank god it will be in Singapore and not in some run down airport.

Answer 11

When Going to destination, I'm Happy, When going back to origin, very very very sad. I start tearing..........
