Well, I was in a rush that morning and I suppose I set off a bit late.
It was raining when I left the house and there was a lot of traffic
on the roads.
I got to the airport just before the desk closed.
When I boarded the plane, all the other passengers were waiting
for me.
It was a bit embarrassing, but we took off OK.
I had a seat in the middle of the plane and for the first couple of
hours it was fine.
So I was reading my book when one of the flight attendants came
over and spoke to me.
She said that there was something wrong with her seat and that
she needed to take mine.
I was the last passenger to check in, so they chose me.
I asked the flight attendant where I should sit and she told me that
the only place was the toilet.
At first, I thought it was a joke, but then I realised that she was
serious.
So I was sitting on the toilet when the turbulence started.
It was quite frightening because of course there was no seatbelt
 in the toilet.
I almost fell off a few times.
After the turbulence stopped, I opened the door.
About five passengers were waiting outside to use the toilet.
I just closed the door again.
And then to top it all, when we landed at Istanbul there was a
delay of an hour before we could get off the plane because of a
problem in the airport.
I still can't believe they told me to stay in the toilet for two hours.
It was terrible.
You just can't treat customers like that.
