Expectations vs Reality Book

Going to An Airport

Expectation 1: Going through airport check-in quickly, because you know the airport has a lot of counters that will be used for baggage drop and is for each travel class. Also, you have confirmed your flight earlier.

Reality 1: Long lines everywhere! Reason? Only one of the two baggage drop counters is open. It takes up nearly an hour or more just to check-in your bag. Then you see three counters open for other travel classes and barely no counters open for the travel class you are in. You have no choice but to join another long line.

Expectation 2: Airport security check is really quick. Surprisingly, it is just before whatever weekend or holiday starts! Plus, the airport is packed!

Reality 2: Three security officers walk past you for their break. 'Great! more waiting!' you think... There will be no time for snack before the flight starts.
