The lion at sea-tac airport (Fictional story)

It was a rainy day in the city of Seattle and at Seattle Tacoma international airport it was a very busy day. Many flights arriving and departing, so many people flying into Seattle from countries all over the world.

And one of many airlines landing in Seattle, is an Icelandair flight arriving in from Reykjavik Iceland it is just 2hours away from landing. When it lands, it will taxi to gate A2. Near the airport is a highway and on the highway are many cars and one of them is a zoo truck carrying a male lion to a zoo in Seattle. 

The truck zooms past some cars and then the drivers do not notice that there is a sharp rock on the road. The truck hits the rock, but it bounces and hits the lock on the gate where the lion is, and the lock breaks and the doors bang open, and the lion jumps out onto the highway. 

Many cars stop and crash into each other. The lion jumps over the fence and lands on runway 28L. The lion walks onto the taxiway, and it walks towards Gate A2, where Icelandair flight 246 was supposed to stop. Many people inside the airport see the lion and stop in their steps and many people gasp.

The ground crew workers quickly run inside the Terminal and one of them reaches for the phone and calls the control tower informing them that there is a lion at gate A2. The people in the control tower look over to gate A2 and they are equally shocked. Then one of the people in the control tower talks on the PA system and tell the airport staff to close and lock and barricade the entrance to gate a2.

The main worker in the control tower quicky switches the signs for all flights as delayed. Just then Icelandair flight 246 lands on runway 28L the people wonder if all the flights in and out of Sea-Tac airport are delayed. The people in the control tower wonder the same thing. Then the people in the control tower look at a person on the other side of the tower and he claims that he gave flight 246 to land the people groan and he apologizes.

The people in the plane see the lion and the pilots quickly turn onto a grassy area and the front landing gear collapses but luckily there is no fire, and all the passengers are ok. Then the zookeepers appear at the entrance and capture the lion and take him to the van and take him to the zoo where he will be happy. 

Then service at sea-tac continues and emergency vehicles help the passengers of flight 246.

A road trip to remember

Image
This is my story of my family's first road trip in US we planned in just 2 days, covering 4 National Parks and 5 states where we will be travelling a total distance of 2200 miles in 8 days. Our trip to India we had planned all summer was cancelled at the very last moment, due to some visa issues. All our bags were packed and the mood in the house was gloomy to put it mildly. My father was planning to go extreme on the road trip. His idea of the road trip was to travel the breadth of America from West to East, starting from Seattle in Washington to Boston in  Massachusetts. To put it into perspective that would mean a distance of 3,045 miles one way and then back. That would be just 6 days one way drive even if we drove like 500 miles per day with my younger brother who is just 4 years old. Thankfully some sense got into him, and we decided to abandon the plan. So, what actually ended up happening was a more planned trip, where we covered 250 miles per day and enjoyed the ...

My Trip To Seaside

Image
It was the summer break, and no summer is complete without a trip to the beach. It was pretty last minute, but we managed to book a lovely Hotel room with a view of the sea, and this is the story of my trip. Hope you enjoy reading this. It was a nice sunny morning on August 2, and I was super excited to go to Seaside!!!, So we packed our bags and had some breakfast and left for our first stop  The Astoria Column . It was a total 3 hours drive. As we were crossing through SeaTac my brother and I saw four Alaska Airlines and two Deltas as well as a Southwest . The Deltas were a a330 neo and a 737 and the Southwest and Alaska planes were just 737s. After a few hours later we entered Oregon through this super cool and long bridge, and I saw some long container ships.                                                             ...

A Visit to Palm springs

Image
It was early in the morning, and I woke up to the sound of my mom's footsteps going to the kitchen. I tried to go back to sleep but I just couldn't because I was too excited to go to Palm Springs, California. We had already packed our bags the night before and our uncle was coming to drop us off to the airport, where we will be meeting our friends and fly together. It was the middle of December and departures were all backed up, like the Wall Street had just closed for the trading day.  After 40 minutes we arrived a SeaTac international airport and I hugged my uncle, and we went into the Alaska airlines section. The SeaTac airport is spread in an area of 2500 acres and has 3 runways. The airport entered service in 1949 and is owned by port of Seattle.  There we checked in for our flight and we waited for our other friend's family to come. Once they arrived, they checked in and we all went to security check and then we went on a tram to the N gates, our gate was n11. Once ...
