Luggage arrival at Dubai
I was first pleased, then amused - a bit - by the information system at Dubai Airport's Terminal 3.
When I got to the reclaim belt, the tv screens said that the last bags from my flight would be on the belt within 24 minutes. Very efficient!
The number counted down - 23 minutes, 22 minutes, 21 minutes....
When it got to 1 minute and my bag was among several which had not appeared, I wondered what would happen next!
The message disappeared - and about 5 minutes later, more bags - including mine - appeared on the belt!
Nice try, guys!
