Cathay Pacific Celebrates 60 years in Singapore

Have you seen the cathay's ad in the straits times & lian he zao bao today?
-beams-

I wouldn't say I did that, but I was largely involved in producing the ad. I was so worried the creative may not even be produced and approved in time for it to be published today. The ad kinda marks the end of my attachment in the marketing & sales department. Will be attached to reservations & ticketing (which is just next door to M & S and is part of the M & S team) for a month from next week.

I had to wake up at 5am today, take a cab down to telok blangah to pick daniel up and off we went to the airport. the cab fare was $40! we met up with ben and boon, set up the standee at the check-in row and went for a $45 gelare breakfast. woohoo!
*expenses were borne by CX. =X


we were there to distribute some tokens of appreciation to all CX passengers departing Singapore today.

we had an hour before the second flight so roland brought us around. we went to SATS lounge and frankly, it's no biggie. It is traditional, all covered up. But CIAS lounge, which CX passengers use, is nice! so much daylight and you can get a nice view of the planes.

at the CIAS lounge, see the CX tailfin behind us?
remember her? she's aileen leong, my history/social studies teacher back in CSS. She was leaving for HKG on CX.
Another CSS teacher, Gary Cheng, was on the same flight too.

We handed out the gifts till 11.30am after the 3rd CX flight for the day. The gifts for the second half of the day were handed out by the airport staff. Actually I'm pretty worried for myself because 60% of the pictures taken are blur. And those which are not are not good enough for publication. ohoh..

We had drinks at MIX and ben brought me and daniel to Werners to eat. Woohoo!

Happy 60th Birthday!
