It was a little unnerving to be waiting at the gate at the Labuan Bajo airport watching the television coverage of the Lion Air plane crash that had happened at the Bali airport the day before (nobody died). Even more so because the flight I was waiting for was on Lion Air…going to Bali. And I just might have tinkled a little in my pants when we flew over the crashed plane as we were about to land (safely). Maybe it was backpacker karma punishing me for taking a flight rather than going overland/water.
UPDATE:
Here’s a pic of us watching the plane crash news
