So this happened in October 2019, when we flew from Kolkata to Phuket via a stopover in Singapore. Meet the cast EM - 70 year old headache ED - 40 year old Migraine daughter of EM Anita - Poor stewardess Me - Le me; M - Le Mother; S - Le Sister Given that my own mother does not eat Pork and Beef(Indians here), I had to book special diabetic seafood meals for my mother on both sectors. Singapore Airlines was kind enough to accommodate for us, and also allocated us our seats. This was done 2 months in advance because i didn't want to be a nuisance to the hardworking crew. Now we board the plane and we have 3 seats on the left side, the A350 was in a 3-3-3 configuration. And in the aisle, sat EM and ED. Takeoff is smooth and i start chillin with my whiskey in hand while my mother and sister go to sleep. We are awoken 15 minutes later because my mother's meal had arrived. EM notices this and starts to point towards us. and then 'DING'. ED has called the attendant and demanded to know why my mother got her meal first.
