Imagine what it’s like slinging suitcases out on the tarmac when the mercury hits triple digits. Aerodynamically, warmer air is less dense than cooler air, meaning that in hot weather a wing produces less lift.

Thanks to him, I was able to enjoy the hotel's breakfast and tarmac view in his room. With a light load, our aircraft lifted off quickly. We hit some light turbulence during our descent. On the day of departure My first stop of the day was to meet a good friend at the Crowne Plaza Hotel. It was not a bad day for flying.

To get there, you need to follow the signboard leading you to a lift and from the lower level, you can walk through the underpass to get to the other building. What I like about the interior of the terminals at this airport is they offer good view of the tarmac which allow great opportunity to take good photos of the aircraft.

One of them informed us about the weather and possible thunderstorm at Delhi Airport and he mentioned about the smooth ride when they flew in from Delhi so we could be expecting smooth ride during cruising but possible turbulence when we approach Delhi. We lifted off effortless towards the grumpy skies. Soon, it was our turn.
