"What're you doing, Tiffany? We're in economy class!" said Shaun.
"Nuh-uh! Not anymore!" responded Tiffany. "I've upgraded my ticket to Business Class, after my horrific encounters last time I've boarded Economy. I've decided to upgrade Jeffie's ticket too, so he can sit next to me on this flight. But, he refused unless I've upgraded all your tickets as well. So, tada! We're all in Business Class now!" Jeffrey confirmed this claim by gradually nodding his head in affirmation.
"OMG! I've never travelled in Business Class for long-haul flights before!" exclaimed Claire in ecstasy. "Looks like this trip to Taiwan is gonna be the best trip ever! Thank you so much, Tiffany! You're the best!"
"But there was one condition which Jeffie agreed tp," continued Tiffany, ignoring Claire's expression of gratitude. "Jeffie will sit next to me during this whole flight!"
"Lol, thanks for sacrificing for your friends, Jeff!" joked Shaun as he gently nudged his friend, who let out a long sigh.
"Your boarding passes are ready!" said the attendance lady as she handed everyone their boarding passes after they've all checked in their baggages. "The flight is 14 hours long in total, taking you directly to Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport, along with your luggage. The boarding gate is at M8 and the boarding time is 6:40pm. After going through security, please ascend the escalators and the VIP Lounge will be on your right. I wish you have a pleasant flight and enjoy your trip to Taiwan!"
After receiving their boarding passes, the group of friends proceeded to the airport security check. Luckily, there weren't too many people in the queue, so it was soon there turn to place their carry-on baggages on the X-ray scanner.
Nevertheless, Tiffany, who was not used to boarding passenger jets, walked through the security door with all her baggage. The alarm went off immediately and she was stopped by the security lady.
"Excuse me, miss! Please place your baggage in the X-ray machine and walk through the security door again," said the security lady in uniform.
"OMG! What a hassle!" exclaimed Tiffany impatiently as she started shouting. "Do I look a terrorist to you? Have you ever seen a terrorist as pretty as me?"
"These are the rules of the airport which everyone must comply, regardless if you're a terrorist" replied the lady patiently.
Tiffany stomped back sulkily, placed her bag angrily on the conveyor belt and walked through the security door. Nevertheless, the alarm sounded again, only to discover later that the cause was Tiffany not removing her watch.
"OMG! How long is this gonna take!" complained Elize impatiently as she rolled her eyes.
