Will I get a cheeky one before the next flight?

Hammer89 · 22-10-2016 7:03pm #1

I booked a flight this evening and it's got a layover in Rej.....the capital of Iceland. I think it's an 90-minute wait before the connecting flight or something.

But my question is - during that hour and a half will the passengers be confined indoors? I ask because I'm a smoker who hates flying so I'll need a cheeky one or nine to sooth the stress of getting on another seven-hour flight.

There should be an area that's technically in the airport but outside where you can smoke...

Is there not one of those in most airports? There should be really.

Had the same issue in London yesterday.

Letting off some CS gas sorted things.

Ok, OP tell us where your heading on your holliers, no need for the leading question...

Not in Newark iirc, you've to go out and back in through security. Think o'hare is the same

Right so I told a lie and I hope you'll forgive me. I haven't booked it yet, but I'm literally just about to and I have another two questions.

I need me some leg room but there's two XXL options for space - one that costs £17 and another that costs £28. If they're both XXL, what's the difference? If one seat has more space than the other then why not upgrade it to an XXXL to avoid this sort of confusion?

Finally, is this leg room only for the flight to Rej.....the capital of Iceland? I ask because it's another seven hours on a plane after that and that's where I need the leg room.

Life is so hard

Is that not what I said? That there should be an area where you can smoke? Just ask someone In the airport...

Life is as hard as you make it. .

Listen guy, 6'4 men need the luxury of extra leg room on long-haul flights. It's not like I'm 5'3 and just being a diva.

It's in these situations that being a squirt really comes into it's own.

Book the more expensive one, you only live once!

Cigarettes? How common.

But I don't know if that seat is for the entire journey or just the 10-minute flight to Iceland. This is the dilemma we have.

I've looked into a non-stop journey but Aer Lingus are charging €40 for the spacey seats, and the flight in general is 100% more expensive. As I said, FML.

Hammer89 · 23-10-2016 8:45pm

Went for the Aer Lingus one. F*ck Iceland

Ring Iceland and ask.

It's over on the left by the jacks. Make sure to get a bottle of Icelandic Black Death in duty free. It comes in a coffin.

Thank you for Mr Stimpson but that will not be necessary now. We're talking non-stop flight now, so the anxiety of needing a cigarette will not be as big of an issue as I feared.

BoJack Horseman · 23-10-2016 9:49pm

I hate the whole "cheeky" insert whatever line.

Nothing is cheeky about smoking a cigarette.
What is cheeky anyway?

debabyjesus · 23-10-2016 9:50pm

Just have a sneaky one in the jacks sure that's what everyone does. The jockeys are probably smoking joints up the front anyway sure what else would you do on a transatlantic flight. They probably crack a window though so nobody gets freaked out down the back.

Well I'm addicted now so it don't matter. I'll quit before I get cheeky lung cancer.

Its also rank.

I've a bottle of Brennivín at home that is 7 years old. Only been brake enough to have one shot of it.

Gwynplaine · 24-10-2016 8:42am

Lovely fags.

Yamanoto · 24-10-2016 8:55am

Cheeky touch of emphysema there Doc.

Ooh, I am awful.

It's not that bad. Better than the other Icelandic delicacy - rotted shark.

Drink it straight from the freezer if you're having difficulty with it. Be grand.

Will I get a cheeky one before the next flight?
