10 clock: Ronaldo picks me up
11:30 clock: arrival at Guarulhos airport, São Paulo
12 clock: After I've been waiting for at least 30 minutes, I can finally give up my luggage. After I was informed wrong on the internet, I have to pay a lot of excess baggage. It is not that is, 2 x 32 kg but 2 x 23 kg (32 kg only if you have booked in Brazil).
12:30 clock: security check (or whatever you call it) and then about 45 minutes waiting for the stupid stamp of the Federal Police. They have seriously only one of 6 switches had open and even took at least 5 minutes per person.
13:55 clock: boarding time. We can finally get on the plane
15 clock: we take off
16:30 clock: we turn around and fly back to Sao Paulo, because a motor has failed. He needs to be fixed.
18 clock: arrival at Guarulhos airport, São Paulo. What happens next is still unclear.
19:45 clock: we can finally off the plane. We were told that the engine be replaced (so nothing to repair) must be. The problem is that this engine is not at this airport at the moment.

22:15 clock: I can finally relate my room. Free dinner.
23rd December 2009 Wednesday
2:15 clock: After I asked the hotel einwenig, I go to my room. Until 10 clock we will learn more.

Lufthansa informed that on 23 December at 10:30 clock, the passengers through the front of the hotel Caesar Park all the news is shared. If the technical problem is resolved, we will inform you about the new check-in and departure time.
If the aircraft before its departure 23 December, is authorized to contact our booking agent to other airlines to arrange new flights. We kindly ask you to stay at the hotel and await further information for a new flight.
The above time, a Lufthansa staff at the hotel will be available for further information.
Thank you for your understanding.
8:16 clock: I'm bored. I've met a few German and Austrian. However, the European mentality is sooo not quite as open as I do. I think I would bother, when I added me to their fellow small groups. In addition, there are only (young) men.
10:30 clock: following information we have received:
would After installing a new engine last about 5-6 days and all flights are fully booked, flying a machine that actually to Dubai should bring extra to Sao Paulo to our destination. The plane arrives at about 23 clock and we can take off at about 1-1:30 Clock (December 24) is finite.
