This is from Sam Chui's journey
Singapore Airlines have the greatest ticket office staff in Sydney, tirelessly looking after my booking and ensure there was no errors or mistakes. I received my invitation card and tickets in mail 1 week prior to the flight. The trip started with my complimentary Limo arrived 10 minutes early to pick me up. Melissa, a wonderful ticket officer escorts me and helps me with the luggage on the quick and easy trip to the airport. We chatted about planes and pictures, I am surprised Melissa knows my personal website and some pictures I took, what a pleasant surprise to me!
