CHECK-IN The gate was already open for my 2325 flight (AY0131) once I connected from Heathrow, I went straight through to the priority boarding area and we started to board at 2300, As soon as I was at my seat I was offered a drink and my jacket was taken, then my main course order was taken, The plane pushed back a few minutes late at 2342 and, after de-icing, was airborne at midnight.
