MY TRAVEL JOURNAL

First of all i have to say that i am a big guy. I like eating and that was not a problem...till that day...
I was flying to Bucharest, Romania with Ellinair, a new Greek airline that i had never flown before. The plane was an Airbus a320 (i am an aviation geek).
Past the passport control we were getting ready to board the plane. Once i got on the plane i realised that was going to be a really uncomfortable flight.
I have never seen such narrow seats on a plane. I know i am a big guy but last time i got off a plane i still had my kneecaps. That was not the case with this flight. My knees were almost touching my nose. The seat belt was long enough to buckle up only my left leg and i was like...
The flight attendants did not say anything about me not wearing my seatbelt but even if they did i would tell them that not all people in this world are smurfs, in fact not a single person in this world is a smurf to fit in this seat. It was a really long flight and i listened to a lot of people on the plane complaining about the seats.
The worst flying experience i had by far.
