Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
synopsis: the beginning of y/n's biggest kickoff role! paring: jujutsu kaisen actor au x y/n warnings: some cursing probably but either way, none notes: visuals are at the end of the episode and I recommend that you view them first
Tumblr media
10:00 AM - NEW YORK CITY - THE PLAZA HOTEL (NEW YORK STATE, USA)
y/n sat on a chair in her hotel room at the Plaza Hotel in New York City
She had just finished up her MIUMIU photo shoot the previous day and was relaxing, enjoying her Belgian Waffle from room service, and watching a new episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians as her phone rang
She reached over to the chair next to her and checked the screen to see her manager calling
She paused the TV as she answered the call
"Hello?" she said, food still in her mouth
"y/n? Hello! How are you?" her manager - Kyube - asked
"I'm doing fine...enjoying the hotels room service while I can..what's up?"
"Have you checked your email yet?"
"Uhh which one? I have like 7 different accounts" she picked a strawberry from her plate
"The one where your audition results come through? Did you check it?"
"I mean I would if I could find my computer"
"Just do it on your phone"
"But I'm on call with you?"
"I'll tell you then. The role you auditioned for in Jujutsu Kaisen?"
"Yeah, what about it?"
"You got the part! You'll need to head to JFK immediately. Like today. I already bought your plane tickets and your flight is red-eye. I know it's ten in the morning but since you tend to wait until the last minute to pack but please do it now"
"Twin you can drop this all on me at once"
"I just did! You'll need to leave by 8 or 9 so start getting ready by one in the afternoon. Your flight will take you to San Francisco for a layover and then over the Pacific to Japan"
"Ooookay..so 17 hours?" y/n said as she yanked her pink suitcases out of the closet
"That's right! Oh, and I'll be meeting you at the gate at SFO when you land"
"Okay, thanks for letting me know" y/n placed her Hermes shopping bags on the bed and began to take the boxes out leaving them unopened and carefully placing them in her suitcases
Tumblr media
9:00 PM - JOHN F. KENNEDY INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT - NEW YORK CITY (NEW YORK STATE, USA)
y/n waited by her gate after making it through the nightmare of security and baggage check
She tugged on her sweatshirt and sweatpants combo each with the Yankee logo. Naturally, she choose the most comfortable outfit for a 17 hour flight
Lowering her Yankees cap down on her head to avoid getting noticed as she ate her donuts from Dunkin'
"Gate 34, now boarding. Repeat: Gate 34, now boarding. Please proceed to Gate 34 should it be your designated gate" the announcement came from the loudspeaker and y/n wiped her mouth and threw out any trash in the nearby trashcan and she picked up her travel bag and walked to the gate
"Any passengers now boarding first class line up at the checkpoint. Repeat: Any passengers now boarding first class please line up at the checkpoint"
y/n moved over to the checkpoint and handed the flight attendant her boarding pass
The woman's eyes widened slightly as she saw who's name was on the boarding pass and y/n smiled slightly albeit awkwardly
"I'm a huge fan!" the woman whispered as she let y/n onto the plane
y/n quickly found her spot in first class and tossed her bag down and sunk into the plush chair as people began to board the plane
Before she fell asleep, a Twitter notification hit her phone but she was too lazy to check it, opting to sleep instead
Tumblr media Tumblr media
9:00 PM (WESTERN TIME) - SAN FRANCISCO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT - SAN FRANCISCO (CALIFORNIA, USA)
y/n yawened as she got off the plane and looked around for her manager
"She should be here..." y/n muttered under her breath "hmmm...ah! There she is"
Kyube was sitting to the side in the lounge area typing away at her computer which was covered in NewJeans and Twice stickers that y/n had given her
"Kyu!" y/n called out as she walked to her manager
Kyube looked up at the sound of the girls voice "y/n! Hi love, how are you?" Kyube stood up to hug the girl. y/n was shorter than Kyube...probably since Kyube never left the house without her heels
Her manager was very beautiful and a former actress, but a past accident didn't allow her to return to her career
"I'm good, how are you?" y/n looked up at Kyube
"I'm doing fine, honey. Are you hungry? Our flight for Japan leaves in about an hour and a half, would you like to go eat?"
"Yes please"
"Alright then"
Tumblr media
10:30 PM (WESTERN TIME) - SAN FRANCISCO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT - SAN FRANCISCO (CALIFORNIA, USA)
"Gate 5 now boarding. Repeat: Gate 5 is now boarding. Please proceed to Gate 5 should it be your designated gate"
y/n looked up from her finished plate as the announcement
"There we go!" Kyube stood up and took their plates to the counter
"On your feet, y/n. Time to go"
"Any passengers now boarding first class line up at the checkpoint. Repeat: Any passengers now boarding first class please line up at the checkpoint"
y/n walked to the checkpoint with her manager and Kyube handed in their boarding passes
They made their way into first class and y/n practically lunged for the comfortable seat, ready to sleep again
She put her headphones on and scrolled through the artists that she followed on Spotify to find one to fall asleep to
NOW PLAYING: ICHIKO AOBA ON SHUFFLE
She kept her eyes on the leaving city as they began to fly over the Pacific ocean
Tumblr media
2:30 PM (ASIA TIME) - HANEDA AIRPORT - HANEDAKUKO, OTA CITY, TOKYO METROPOLITAN PREFECTURE (JAPAN)
y/n woke up to someone gently patting her arm
"y/n? y/n the plane is landing...time to wake up" Kyube moved her hand to gently pat the girls hair
"mmmm..." y/n rubbed at her eyes as she slowly opened the window and squinted her eyes to adjust to the light
Below them, Japan was coming closer and closer to the plane as it began the descent
"What time is it?" she said groggily as the plane jolted from it's landing
"2:30 pm" Kyube said as the plane slowed to a stop and the post-flight announcement came onto the loudspeaker
"C'mon honey, time to go" Kyube held her hand out for y/n to take and y/n did so hauling herself to her feet
The duo walked out of the plane and into Haneda Airport
"Are you hungry? I want to get a coffee" Kyube said as they walked deeper into the airport
"Yeah can we go to Dunkin?" y/n looked up at her manager
"Sure, but we need to get our bags first"
"'Kay"
The duo went to the baggage claim carousels and y/n placed her hands on her knees staring intently at the suitcases went by. It was a little impossible to miss her pink suitcase among the darker colored suitcases but it never hurt to be careful
Once y/n's suitcases came down the carousel, she hauled them off albeit clumsy and helped Kyube get her suitcases which were way heaver and larger than y/n's
"What on Earth do you have in those?"
"Shoes"
"Good grief"
Once they got out of the baggage claim area, they made their way to the food court to buy coffee for Kyube and donuts for y/n
"Kyube pleeeeaaasseeee!!!! pleasepleasepleaseplease!"
"No, you are getting one donut and that's it. Donuts and Tanghulu isn't a meal. You want strawberries? We'll get you a fruit bowl, but no donuts and Tanghulu together"
"Please...? I promise I won't wander around unknown areas or talk to strangers again!"
"My words are final"
"Aww man. But I'll take you up on that fruit bowl"
Tumblr media
Kyube and y/n sat at a table in the food court. Kyube was working on y/n's upcoming schedule for and y/n was posting her dumb shit on twitter
y/n placed her phone down as she poked a piece of cantaloupe with her fork and looked to the side but she spotted two familiar people a few tables away
"Hey...Kyube?"
"Yes?"
"Who're they? They look familiar" y/n pointed a thumb to the somewhat familiar duo
Kyube looked in the direction that y/n was pointing in and squinted her eyes from behind her sharp rectangular glasses (the bayonetta glasses)
"Thats Gojo Satoru and Geto Suguru...you've been in a movie with Geto once, you were young though"
"Huh...are they filming Jujutsu Kaisen too?"
"I can't tell you that"
y/n picked up her phone to scroll through twitter again and decided to eat her donut in three bites. Her eyebrows furrowed as she saw a tweet from a familiar name
Tumblr media
y/n snickered and looked over her shoulder at Gojo and Geto. The former had moved his sunglasses onto his forehead and was gaping at his phone
'pretend like you've got no idea' she mouthed to Geto who nodded
"y/n please do not cause problems" Kyube scolded
Tumblr media Tumblr media
"Alright...y/n, we need to leave now to get to the hotel in time"
"Okay" y/n stood up and threw out the now empty cup that once held fruit and the bag from the donut
She followed Kyube out of the airport and passed the table that Gojo and Geto were out giving the duo a shit-eating grin
Gojo playfully stuck his toungue out at her and she returned the gesture in the same playful manner
"Come along y/n" Kyube beckoned the girl "Our car will be here shortly"
"Coming!"

5 Must-Know Facts About Airport Shuttle Bay Area
The Bay Area is renowned for its bustling airports and vibrant cities, making efficient transportation essential for both residents and visitors. Among the various transportation options available, airport shuttles stand out for their convenience and affordability. Here, we delve into five must-know facts about Airport Shuttle Bay Area service , providing you with the essential information to enhance your travel experience.
Tumblr media
1. Comprehensive Coverage Across Major Airports
Airport Shuttle Bay Area services provide extensive coverage across all major airports, including San Francisco International Airport (SFO), Oakland International Airport (OAK), and Norman Y. Mineta San Jose International Airport (SJC). This extensive network ensures that travelers can easily access shuttle services regardless of their entry or exit point in the Bay Area. These shuttles are designed to offer seamless transportation, bridging the gap between airports and various destinations within the region.
Convenient Pickup and Drop-off Locations
Shuttle services operate with multiple pickup and drop-off points, including major hotels, residential areas, and business districts. This flexibility is particularly beneficial for travelers who require direct transportation to their accommodations or places of business, reducing the hassle of navigating unfamiliar areas.
2. Cost-Effective Travel Option
One of the primary advantages of using airport shuttle services in the Bay Area is the cost savings. Compared to private taxis or rideshare services, airport shuttles offer a more affordable alternative without compromising on comfort and convenience. Many shuttle services operate on a shared-ride model, where passengers share the vehicle with others traveling in the same direction, further reducing individual costs.
Transparent Pricing
Airport Shuttle Bay Area services often provide transparent pricing structures, allowing travelers to know the exact cost of their journey upfront. This eliminates the uncertainty and potential for unexpected expenses that can arise with other forms of transportation. Additionally, many shuttle providers offer online booking platforms where travelers can secure their reservations and receive instant pricing quotes.
3. Reliable and Punctual Service
Reliability and punctuality are key attributes of reputable Airport Shuttle Bay Area services. These services prioritize timely pickups and drop-offs, ensuring that travelers reach their destinations on schedule. Shuttle operators often employ advanced tracking systems and real-time traffic monitoring to optimize routes and avoid delays.
Professional Drivers
Shuttle services employ professional drivers who are well-versed in the local geography and traffic patterns. These drivers are trained to provide courteous and efficient service, enhancing the overall travel experience. Their familiarity with the region ensures that travelers can rely on them for safe and timely transportation.
4. Eco-Friendly Transportation Solution
In an era where sustainability is increasingly important, airport shuttle services in the Bay Area offer an eco-friendly transportation solution. By reducing the number of individual vehicles on the road, shuttles help to decrease traffic congestion and lower carbon emissions. Many shuttle providers also operate fuel-efficient or hybrid vehicles, further contributing to environmental conservation efforts.
Shared-Ride Benefits
The shared-ride model not only lowers costs but also reduces the environmental impact of each journey. By consolidating multiple passengers into a single vehicle, shuttle services can significantly cut down on the number of trips required, leading to fewer emissions and a smaller carbon footprint.
5. Convenient and Stress-Free Experience
Traveling can often be a stressful experience, but airport shuttle services in the Bay Area aim to alleviate this by offering a convenient and stress-free alternative. From the moment a reservation is made, travelers can expect a smooth and efficient process. Shuttle providers often offer amenities such as complimentary Wi-Fi, comfortable seating, and ample luggage space to enhance the comfort of the journey.
24/7 Availability
Many airport shuttle services operate around the clock, catering to the diverse schedules of travelers. Whether arriving on a late-night flight or departing early in the morning, passengers can rest assured that a reliable shuttle service will be available to meet their needs.
Choosing the Right Airport Shuttle Service
When selecting an Airport Shuttle Bay Area service , it is important to consider factors such as reputation, reviews, and the range of services offered. Opting for a well-established provider with positive customer feedback can ensure a high-quality travel experience. Additionally, travelers should look for services that offer easy booking processes, flexible scheduling, and competitive pricing.
Customer Reviews and Testimonials
Reading customer reviews and testimonials can provide valuable insights into the reliability and quality of a shuttle service. Many reputable providers feature reviews on their websites or on third-party platforms, allowing prospective customers to make informed decisions based on the experiences of others.
Conclusion
Airport Shuttle Bay Area services , such as Baystar Shuttle, offer a practical, affordable, and eco-friendly transportation solution for travelers. With comprehensive coverage, cost-effective pricing, reliable service, and a focus on sustainability, these shuttles provide an excellent alternative to other forms of transportation. By choosing a reputable provider, travelers can enjoy a convenient and stress-free journey to and from the airport, enhancing their overall travel experience.

San Francisco International Airport, CA (No. 3)
SFO is home to one of the largest single aircraft maintenance bases in the world with complete MRO base operations (maintenance, repair, overhaul, painting, welding, machine shop, tool and die, parts manufacturing, fabrication, engineering, and retrofitting (Boeing and Airbus certified, among others)). It serves as the principal Global MRO Base for United Airlines and serves over 40 other airlines, military customers, and aircraft lease operators.

Nippon Cargo Airlines has its San Francisco branch on the airport property.
Prior to its merger that formed AirWest, Pacific Air Lines had its corporate headquarters on the grounds of the airport. Hughes Airwest, the successor to Air West, also had its headquarters on the grounds of the airport.

Day Zero: Getting There
Coordinating travel with eight people coming at different times and from different places to a small village in rural England can be a challenge. Especially considering the vagaries of air travel these days. The combination of delays at airports and the strict timetables at railroad stations can pose problems, but we are an experienced group and, heck, what is a good adventure without some unforeseen obstacles thrown in your way.
Diane, Linda, and I were on the same British Airways plane from SFO to London. Carol had left several days earlier to spend some time with family living in The UK. Susan and Renee had a later flight by a couple of hours, while Shirley and Chuck had to fly from Bloomington, Illinois to Chicago before their flight to Heathrow. Our flight was delayed an hour, but we had plenty of time to get to King’s Cross Station to board our train for Thetford and the start of our journey along The Peddar’s Way.
The overnight flight was fine as was the metro ride into London. Carol met us soon after we arrived at the train station, and we got word that Renee and Susan’s flight was on time and they would take the next train to Thetford. Not so fortunate were Chuck and Shirley. Their plane was also an hour late leaving the US, after spending some time on the tarmac. Upon arrival at Heathrow, they had to again sit on the tarmac for another hour before deplaning. Our several hours of leeway to catch our train was disappearing quickly. It only mattered because we prepaid for the train to Thetford weeks earlier at the severely discounted internet price. In any event, the Hagers made it with twenty minutes to spare, and we were soon whisking our way a couple of hours north of London through the marvelous English countryside to the Suffolk region.
This delightful ride brought us to Thetford, and after a brisk half mile walk, we were welcomed to The Bell Hotel, a wonderful old inn in the center of this picture perfect village. Our host, Victoria, had our rooms ready, so after a little while getting situated and cleaned up, we met in the hotel’s pub for some drinks as we waited for Susan and Renee to arrive. In this small town, there were somewhat limited options for dinner so we decided to eat here at The Bell.
Coming from the USA and especially from California, we are used to having to spend a small fortune to eat out. The prices here in Thetford are simply not to be believed. My pint of ale and Diane’s gin and tonic set me back only $10. Dinner specials were even more traveller-friendly. Diane’s bangers and mash, my fish ‘n chips, accompanied by two gin and tonics set us back ~$30 out the door. Delicious food, lovely ambiance and friendly folks. The eight of us had a terrific time eating, drinking, laughing and joking around. The pains of the long journey were quickly forgotten amidst the anticipation of the actual walk starting in the morning.
After dinner, we walked around the town a bit as the sun began to set. A gorgeous small park with a small river running through it made for a delightful way to end the day. Hitting the bed was heaven. Hopefully jet lag would not be an issue.
And, English Breakfast in the morning!
To be continued………

Now that you know why Bookviaus is your perfect travel partner, let's delve into finding the ideal flight to New Zealand. Here are some key factors to consider:
Departure City: Choose the most convenient US airport for your departure. Major hubs like Los Angeles (LAX), San Francisco (SFO), and New York (JFK) often have frequent flights to New Zealand.
Destination City: New Zealand has several international airports. Auckland (AKL) is the largest and offers the most connections, while Wellington (WLG) and Christchurch (CHC) cater to specific regions.
Travel Dates: Consider the seasons! New Zealand experiences pleasant weather year-round, but peak tourist season falls in summer (December-February). Shoulder seasons (March-May & September-November) offer a good balance of crowds and weather.
Flight Options: Direct flights from the USA to New Zealand can take up to 14 hours. Budget airlines might offer layovers in other Pacific destinations.

they probably didnt land at a nearer airport to avoid having to pay for hotels
they flight redeparted on another aircraft the following day
fun fact! it's not the first time something like this has happened n it once happened after spending 13 hours in air but it had to turn back bc the destination airport was flooded

The American Airlines flight concluded exactly where it began
Passengers onboard a recent American Airlines flight have admitted they have a 'new fear unlocked' after an American Airlines plane they sat on for nine hours landed at the same airport it took off from.
We've heard many nightmarish travel stories over recent months, including some horror shows on cruise ships.
A recent event certainly ranks high among the worst travel stories as it saw passengers flying out of Dallas for five hours before returning back.

Passengers on the American Airlines flight from the Texas city to Incheon International Airport in Seoul, South Korea, on September 7 were in the air for nine hours in total just to return to the airport the plane took off from.
Jimin Lee, who was on board the American Airlines flight, took her smartphone out to record the commotion.
The passenger posted the clip to Instagram, which sees Lee enjoying a snack and a soft drink as the plane turns around.
"New fear unlocked: Your flight to Korea may go five hours and come back with zero explanation," Lee explained in the caption.
The passenger went on to say the airline staff said there was a problem with the toilets, while the pilot reportedly asked if someone was 'carrying a screwdriver' to help fix the issue.
"American Airlines needs a lesson in effective communication," Lee added in the video as snaps of the plane's flight path are shown on the screen in front of her.
The flight path showed how the aircraft had travelled across the US, before heading over parts of the Pacific Ocean when it was forced to head back.
Increasingly frustrated by the lack of clarity by American Airlines, Lee dived into some Flaming Hot Cheetos, though she required 'a ramyun and a strong drink'.
The viral video then cut to landing in Dallas, with the pilot confirming there were 'clear skies' for landing.

Lee concluded: "Nine hours later we're back in Dallas. Lost for words."
Many have flocked to the comments section of the viral Instagram video.
"If there is an ounce of anything potentially going wrong or messing up when doing a leg over the ocean, pilots will be more cautious than normal. This is totally normal," one person remarked.
While a second pointed out: "They should have just landed in SFO, or LAX instead of going all the way back to Dallas. Makes no sense, probably didn’t want pay for the hotels."
An American Airlines spokesperson told UNILAD: "On September 7, American Airlines flight 281 with service from Dallas Fort Worth (DFW) to Seoul (ICN) returned to DFW due to a maintenance issue. The flight landed safely and without incident at DFW, and the aircraft was taken out of service to be inspected by our maintenance team. We never want to disrupt our customers' travel plans, and we apologize for the inconvenience."
The airline stated the flight re-departed on a replacement aircraft the next day.

The Gateway: San Francisco International Airport (SFO)
As the primary gateway to the city, San Francisco International Airport (SFO) serves as the arrival point for millions of passengers each year. Located approximately 13 miles south of downtown San Francisco, SFO is a major hub connecting domestic and international travelers to the Bay Area. The efficiency and convenience of your chosen airport transportation play a crucial role in ensuring a hassle-free transition from the airport to your final destination.
Rideshare Services: Convenience at Your Fingertips
Rideshare services, such as Uber and Lyft, have become a popular choice for airport transportation. Offering convenience at your fingertips, these services allow passengers to request a ride through user-friendly mobile apps. The affordability, ease of use, and the availability of rides directly from the airport terminals make rideshare services an attractive option for those seeking on-demand and hassle-free transportation.
Traditional Taxis: Time-Tested Reliability
For passengers who prefer a more traditional approach, taxis remain a time-tested option for airport transportation. San Francisco International Airport has designated taxi zones where passengers can easily find cabs waiting for service. Taxis provide the advantage of a dedicated driver familiar with the city, ensuring a straightforward journey to your destination. Although the cost may be slightly higher than rideshare services, taxis offer a sense of reliability and immediacy.
Airport Shuttles: Shared Convenience
Airport shuttles provide a shared transportation option, making stops at major hotels and destinations within the city. This cost-effective choice is suitable for solo travelers or those willing to share the journey with fellow passengers. While airport shuttles may take a bit longer due to multiple stops, they offer an affordable alternative for those seeking shared convenience and a more economical approach to airport transportation.
Private Car Services: Tailored Luxury
For a more personalized and luxurious airport transportation experience, private car services stand out as the epitome of comfort and convenience. Passengers can pre-book private cars or limousines, ensuring a dedicated chauffeur and a smooth, door-to-door journey. The comfort of a private car, coupled with the assurance of a professional driver, makes this option ideal for those who prioritize a stress-free and elegant arrival. Private car services offer the flexibility to choose a vehicle that suits your preferences, whether it's a classic sedan or a luxury SUV.
Navigating Traffic and Timing
San Francisco's unique geography and traffic patterns can significantly impact the timing of airport transportation. Passengers should be mindful of potential delays, especially during peak hours or busy travel periods. Planning ahead and considering factors such as the time of day, potential traffic congestion, and the distance to your destination are essential elements in ensuring a smooth and timely airport transportation experience.
Choosing the Right Option for You
The best airport transportation option for you depends on your preferences, priorities, and travel circumstances. If you value convenience and cost-effectiveness, rideshare services or traditional taxis may be suitable. For those seeking shared convenience at a lower cost, airport shuttles provide a viable alternative.
