Not much to do today. have to leave for the airport
around 11ish. Got ready and went to have breakfast…same old stuff. Came back
packed up and left for the central station around 11 am. It is about 2 blocks.
The #S8 goes straight to the airport. Bought the ticket from the info-ticket
center as all the ticket dispensers are in German. For E-11 I am set. The
Central station of Munich looks terrible from outside, but interior is very
nice, like an airport.
The train is quite empty, good. in 40 mins I was at the
airport.
I still have plenty of time. I went to get my luggage from the “Kept
Luggage”. E-117, not bad for two pieces for 9 days. Had to repack some
stuff to make both of the large luggage less than 24 kg.
Checked in my luggage (E-75). Not bad. I was expecting
more. Went through security, no issues. No immigration yet. Had to get the train
for my gate. There was no food near my gate! Should have eaten before. Immigration
was near the gates. All went smoothly. Flight
was smooth, not issues. Did not want to sleep so that I did not get jet lab. Watched
movies all the way to Newark. Food was
good and so were the attendants. Certainly quite different flying from India vs
Europe.
Newark airport had changed quite a lot since 3 years ago.
Much smoother and cleaner. Except luggage cart – that is still $6. Why do they steal
from tourists and residents? Gave my luggage for Palm Beach and then walked the
long walk to my gate. Lucky that I had a 2 hr layover. Flight was delayed so
got in really late to Palm Beach.
