When preparing for a holiday there are many things you consider and prepare for. Like whether your suitcase will be within the weight limit, whether your sun cream has a high enough SPF or if your passport and Covid pass are still in date.
My friends and I had booked a holiday to Lisbon last year and so we were more than prepared, with all of these things accounted for when the exciting day came. We had seen the stories about Bristol Airport and it's chaos so we even took the extra steps of purchasing 'speedy boarding' and getting to the airport with hours to spare.
To our delight, our efforts appeared to pay off. And so after waiting around an hour to check in, because we were too early, we ditched our suitcases and made our way to get an airport brunch.
