This year was the first time club Mobay paid off coming and going. Arrival was a madhouse, with immigration hall full. For us, it was a matter of 13 minutes from deplane til arrival at the Tim air desk, luggage in tow. Head of the line for everything.

Departure yesterday was deceiving. On the drive down to Mobay, zero traffic. When we got to the airport, the line for security was snaking nearly through the length of the departure terminal. From the time we got out of the taxi to the point where we were in beginning of the shopping section of the airport... I'd guess 10 minutes total.

This year, club Mobay may have actually paid me back for the couple times it was completely unnecessary.
