What's your favourite seat on a plane?
The first row on an aisle so I don't see the back of anyone's head, nor be annoyed when they switch on their lights when I want darkness. Also I can disembark quickly. On a non-747, I'm spared the indignity of having to queue for the loo.
How do we become airport friendly travellers?
I abhor airports - particularly now with all the ghastly security hurdles conducted by singularly unattractive and unprofessional staff dressed in phoney uniforms more suited to a banana republic. Then there is all the excruciating retail through which the airport owners make us walk, often for miles. Ergo, a 'friendly airport' is an oxymoron.
What's your travel horror story?
When I first landed in Nairobi, I was asked by the immigration officer if I had had a yellow fever injection. I joked that I did not need one, as I was yellow myself. The colour pun did not go down too well, and I was put in a cell with a huge guard who might have had me for lunch.
