Departure....

Boarding in 10 minutes... Arrival in Dubai around midnight, then 2 hours layover, then onward to Chennai where I will arrive tomorrow morning around 8:30 local time. Then I have the whole day to make my way to Vellore by bus & train, where I have pre-booked accommodation for the first 5 days to settle in...

Update: Had in-flight Wi-Fi for the first time - AND special meal!
