Read the following text and answer the questions.

In the afternoon as my plane from Jakarta touched down in Bangkok, I had noticed quite a lot of fog. The
information counter assured me it wouldn’t delay flights.
After a six-hour tour of the city while waiting to catch another plane to Hong Kong I arrived at Suvarnabhumi
airport shortly before 10 PM and found chaos. The place was crowded with passengers whose flights had been delayed.
Mine was delayed too and I was directed to a crowded first class lounge to wait. An hour and a half later, we were all
comfortably on board when captain announced that there were still thirteen aircrafts waiting to take off and ours was
the seventeenth in line. Half an hour after our rescheduled flight, it was announced that six of the aircrafts had
departed but the rest could only leave the following morning. We were all disappointed but all we could do was just
wait.
The airport hotel was already full, but to our relief, our captain announced that any passenger who would like
to could stay on the airplane for the night and a meal would be served. The air conditioning and other facilities were
kept working all night. At 7 AM, it was announced that we would be served breakfast in the Bangkok airport restaurant.
I went to the restaurant and saw a tremendously long queue.
I decided to return to the aircraft to wait of it to take off. The wait was not too long as we were the first aircraft
to depart that morning. We had a wonderful flight, and landed at Hong Kong airport ahead of the new scheduled time
at 7.20 AM.
