05/03/14 Gee talk about drama. Since last night when I couldn't web check in, couldn't ring Singapore from the hotel, my phone had no service in Nepal, and I couldn't transfer money to check out this morning. All had simple solutions if only I had known. Finally got hold of the airline, as the shops where you can ring ISD weren't open the hotel finally managed to get through, to their credit they were trying everything. Turns out the airline site had a problem ...
