Aw from Labuan ?

That place is quiet these days I heard

Did they compensate you

yes... half way from home, only realize left the passport at home. then quickly ask taxi to uturn. in the end, missed the flight. bought another ticket next day.

one time almost. klia1 need to use the bus to go the satelitte building. so go chill at lounge (after immigration check) but got check the gate status before entering (still got 1 hour half time), then 45 minutes come out saw the gate write boarding or final call, god damn fast fast run to take the bus.

luckily the bus ngam ngam there can go. then when sit in plane, we are not the last one in cause others also did not realize that.

same .. bcos never buy ticket

i have, long long time ago when unker is not the person i am. I was about to fly to a foreign country to meet a foreign gal. Luckily no go else maybe I'm now still working in a compound.

nope
but they put me on tomorrow's flight

nope, cause i sked fly

Kena once before.. Painful experience

Client bought air ticket to Sabah or Sarawak for me to go for stock-take... I arrived KLIA 2 15 mins late.. Plane is still there but bloody counter service crew don't let me enter.. Bought another ticket at KLIA instead to go there.. Client so angry because waste their money I wasted money on air ticket and taxi money from KLIA 2 to KLIA

never missed, but almost missed connecting flight yes, 1st plane was delayed due to weather.

going to subang airport, got accident. so traffic was like F.
saw my flight take off while im still in the car.
end up, u turn and go buy bus ticket.

Yeah in Bintulu

Work schedule already very tough. Supposed to head to Miri. Went to the airport late by 30 mins. Tough luck

Called the guy in Miri, i phone support you only la. No chance of another flight until next day.

Philippines almost 10 years ago. They don't want to let airlines collect the Departure Tax, when I go through Immigration then only they ask for my Departure Tax receipt, then they don't accept card and I used all my cash already. If I go out to withdraw cash, I have to go through Immigration again. End up missed the flight.

same2

Many years ago lo. to Singapore. Couldn't get taxi n late to airport, that time don't have grab those things la. Have to call to operator find a taxi..

I have 2 near miss. Able to make it just before the plane depart. Heart was pumping strong that time

Rome to London....I blame the Rome airport too big
Changi T2 to T4....SQ flight landed 1.5 hr late and have to do mad rush to collect luggage, take bus then check-in at Airasia at T4

Once when I was a small kid. missed flight from Kuantan to KL

no but my ex colleague was late, i was in plane and everyone already seated. I hear the doors closing, then poof he appeared as the last person.

I had to applaud him.
Business trip to SG.

they love to close the gate on the dot
even if you suddenly pop up a second later
cos already send instruction to plane for baggage removal
baggage removal can take longer time comparatively than having you on board - no worries, janji got more tickets to sell

if flight delayed late no problem
if passenger late - not their problem, their untung
either ways they win

There was a very rushed and busy time in my life where for over 8 months i spent less than 2 weeks in my own bed. Plane-hotel-workworkwork-hotel-plane lather rinse and repeat. One day i sat down outside my plane's gate and konked out....totally no more energy. Only woke up when they were calling my name...final call for boarding. Was the last one on the plane. The hot towel handed to me while the plane was being pushed back never felt so good.

airasia flight
Haneda Tokyo to KLIA
flight delayed from 11+pm to 2+am
delayed myself going to airport by train
totoally forgotten about last train and the last train i took was express and didn't stop at haneda.
by the time sort it out, already pass the boarding time and technically couldn't make it.
took taxi back to my friend's place in tokyo which cost me rm2xx for 20 minutes ride.
since it is end of the year, flight going to klia was full that time. extended my trip in tokyo for another week.

same abt connecting flight but not weather. When purchasing ticket for free & easy mode overlooked the connecting flight is located at different airport (heneda-narita) and never was. The time gap between 2 flights only 3 hours, with the consideration of traffic condition, train schedule, immigration queue, unforeseen circumstances etc. Opted to book the airport transfer van and thank god managed to go home smoothly.

Yes

Once due to overslept, book another flight the next day

Once saw wrong date (cost me RM9000+ for 2nd flight)

Once due to traffic jam late by 5min (but was on business to US) ground staff told me quickly run to the gate, they will wait for me.

missed a domestic flight in Gold Coast.
Had to book again

Hmmm, I was late but since I don’t have check in luggage and only hand carry, officer kind enough allowed me to check-in

Few times actually, another time I was late for 30 minutes, I thought gg.com with check in luggage mana tau flight delayed 2 jam, lmao, 🤣 allowed me to check in as well

missed before, flight from JB to KL , so that i could fly to jakarta after that.

i duno why i was dreaming or what, boarding time 8.15am, in my mind was 8.15 i can still pass thru the gate.
i reached the boarding gate just in time to see it close in front of me.. i casually walked up and asked, boleh buka let me in, they strictly declined... wtf...
terus bought a ticket for KL and jakarta, but u know what? at the counter, they found out my passport left less than 3 (or was it 6 months) validity, asked me to go putrajaya ssettle.

WTF. so i took a flight to KLIA2, then duno how i ended up in putrajaya (maybe took aerotrain or bus) then took cab to reach the govt building . then i farking renewed by passport, before i went back to KLIA2 to take flight to jakarta.

and in the end, the farking jakarta trip wasnt even worth it coz i cant rmbr jack shit except that their nasi padang damn dirty coz they put everything there ont he table and let u eat then leftover will be served to next customer.

recent trip in Shanghai me and fiance were pretty early to boarding gate so we decided to go buy food and drinks before boarding but got quite a number of orders before ours

ended up returned late to the point the gate last call and already shut the door. they made some calls yada2 and then gate reopened and let us thru

ingat we were latest need walk the hall of shame only to see the boarding bridge still a queue of people getting to their seats lol

PS: there are still 10 more people turned up last min as well after we both seated

Hell no…but I only sit airplane once in 30 years

Missed because see wrong date. Midnight flight 00:00

I notice this in Batik Air:
One hour before the departure time of a flight, the ground staff will ask the passengers who are still in the queue to come forward so that they can quickly check-in or drop the bags.

AirAsia doesn't care if you miss the flight by just 5 minutes.

Missed once overseas. The train to airport got delayed caused me to missed my flight

Actually I woke up late, the train delay was like 20 mins only

Requested letter from train operator to admit delay, got it and forwarded to travel insurer

Fully reimbursed

No. Cina culture since ansesters is reach airport 4 hours earlier

ironically, you pay for a full fare flight but when airline delayed, they only give you around USD25 meal voucher if the delay is over 4 hours

miss my luggage check in. Luckily I was travelling light so they let me hand carry. Still, quite tiring to walk all the way to the gate with extra bag without wheels.

Missed banyak kali liao, because I always take flights balik kampung. Even my mum won't get surprised if I missed flights.

But the most topkek experience was missing a flight to Europe very long time ago (25 years ago). Ticket wrote 0.00am and I was late one while day, nasib baik Lufthansa gave another free ticket. These days no more flight timed 0.00am because people will get confused, now they time it 0.05am.
