Our flight was Barcelona-London Heathrow (Iberia airlines); London Heathrow-Mumbai (Air India). In Heathrow we had to change terminal, check in with Air India and fly to Mumbai, for all this trouble we had 2 hours according to the flight schedule. The problem was that Iberia had a delay and we arrived in Heathrow 40 min later. After changing the terminal we arrived to Air India check in desk 1 hour before our flight...but the boarding alredy has started. The nice chinese-english girl told us that she is awfully sorry but she can't check us in because the gate is closed. Her version was that we should go back to the other terminal, speak to Iberia, wich was responsible for the delay. At this moment we realized that we have a great opportunity to spend a night in Heathrow and no guarantee at all to arrive in Mumbai the other day...so we start to shout and argue, the only thing to do in the situation like that! I guess Juli looked pretty convincing to her as she started to call Air India telling them that two crazy passengers from Spain are freaking her out. At the end, after 15 min of shouting she told us: "I have two good news for you. First is that I am checking you in for this flight and the second is that you are going in Business Class". Yu-hu!!!!! 8 hours of drinking beers, eating and watching personal TV:-) It was a really nice flight :-)
