My wife and I took the first train to Kansai International Airport for her flight to Cebu. She was going back to her hometown for a visit. Her flight was supposed to leave at 8:55 AM, but during check-in, the staff told us that it wouldn’t leave until 7:55 PM. We were very surprised because the travel agent and airline had not told us about this change. I stayed with my wife to make sure that everything went okay. I had a meeting at work, but I changed it to an online meeting. At 5 PM, when she checked in again, the staff told her that the flight would leave at 9 PM. “Again!?!?” My wife was shocked to hear that, but she smiled when the staff gave her a meal coupon for dinner. It was a long day, but I hope she has a great time in her hometown.   (150 words)
