So the last World Magic Cup qualifier will be held this Saturday and here I am facing early blunders already. I am not in a mood to detail about it but here it goes. I can already feel frustrated as of this moment.

First was the schedule. It was months ago when I booked my flight to Manila when I saw the schedule to be June 2, 2013 on Wizard’s tournament locator. Promo fares were just too tempting to ignore so I acquired a Saturday morning flight and then Monday afternoon return flight.

Little did I know of late that they actually changed the sked to Saturday, June 1, 2013. It was already a mishap for my companions since they booked a wrong schedule with the tournament. I was somewhat spared since my flight sked will be 8:30am, arriving 9:40am and with somewhat enough time to go from the airport to Alphaland Southgate Mall (which also changed from the initial venue Eton Centris Walk). I felt safe at that time, until.

This is the current blunder: I received an email Wednesday night from Zest air that they will be rescheduling my flight to 11:50am. Wtf! I was shocked when I read it. I didn’t know there will be already cancelled flight in that early schedule. From friends’ advices, they told me to go to their ticketing office and insist that my ticket be rescheduled on an earlier flight.

So the next day, I went to Marymart to their office to inquire. That also took me a lot of time to maze around the mall to find it. After a few talk with the clerk, she advises that I go to their office at the airport to verify a reschedule of my trip. Another wtf! I was somewhat hesitant but then I went.

Another hour of travel to the Iloilo Airport and I am facing again another of their staff. I told him about my situation and he said that they will be accommodating affected passengers of the 8:30am flight on their 6:00am flight if I checked in early. That is somewhat good news and as of this writing, I am still crossing my fingers hoping that what he said will be true tomorrow.

So to wrap it up, my fate on participating on the last WMCQ lies on the hands of the airline I’ll be taking tomorrow morning. So please pray for me or raise hands ala Goku’s energy ball and wish me luck tomorrow.

Thanks for the read and follow me on Twitter for updates on this one.

Until next post.
