Singapore schedule ready

Saturday, 24 Feb 2007 | Journal

Next week I will fly to Singapore. I had already decided on that week a while back, but have just finished putting an exact schedule together. That was a fun exercise in tight planning: first figuring out the cheapest flights, then trying to make everything fit in between and finally deciding on the final flight times. The hotel is picked based upon the location of each first destination of the day. Check out the updated version of the article in which I explain scouting trips, I added all these details to it.

Anyway, I’m flying out to Singapore on Wednesday in the EARLY morning. I hope the Air Asia flight (cheapest, but mostly picked because it fit my schedule the best) leaves on time, because they seem to have a bad reputation in that sense. A few hours after my scheduled arrival, I’ve got my first appointment for lunch set up. The rest of that day I hope to have a look around town. After that, two days of running around to visit some events and see some people will follow. And I fly back late Friday night. It will be a flash visit, but I’m pretty sure I will be back there.

I’ll be staying at the Gallery Hotel, booked through the highly trustworthy and competitively priced Planet Holiday.com. No, I don’t own stock. But do book your hotels using this site when you travel Asia, I can vouch for them.
