After a farewell burger at brgr, we went back to the hotel around 5 p.m. to collect our luggage. It took us about 20 minutes on subway line E from the hotel to Jamaica Station. There we transferred to the AirTrain (cost $5 USD). This took us to Terminal 4. Check-in and security went smoothly without any long waits. This allowed us to relax a bit at the gate, and I even managed to take a picture of "our" Boeing 747-400. Singapore Airlines<\/a> together with an Emirates Airbus A380.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The flight was relatively smooth, apart from a few patches of turbulence over the North Atlantic. Just 45 minutes after takeoff, the crew began dinner service. I chose "Phanang Moo: Thai-style pork curry with peanuts, mixed vegetables, and rice" from the menu. I also had a glass of Chardonnay. The Screwdiver, which I'd already drunk shortly after takeoff, was now starting to make me feel tired. Breakfast was served over the British Isles. It consisted of penne with tomato and basil sauce and cheese.<\/p>\n\n\n

Despite a delay in New York, we arrived in Frankfurt early. Immigration was also quite quick. The unpleasant surprise came when we got back to the parking garage! I became suspicious when I could no longer unlock the doors with the remote. We must have left the front reading lights on, and now the battery was dead. Unfortunately, the parking garage didn't have a jump starter. I personally find this very disappointing, as I'm certainly not the first person to have this problem. Luckily, an ADAC (German Automobile Club) employee was waiting outside and was able to help us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
