      Waw i fly with you from south Africa to vienna that was awsome. But i don't understand the way you write the time. If the departure from south Africa was 3:19 is that AM or PM? I am Sure you depart from South Africa 3:19 PM so then you arrived in Addis 8:17 PM in the evening. So what I am not understand hear is again you depart from Addis to Vienna at 11:59 PM so what does it mean you arrived in Vienna at 14:41 ? Did you mean 2:41AM ? which country local time is 14:41? And are you from Austria?

The stopover on the way back is also 12 hours. I will probably find a hotel to stay the night as I heard the lounges at the airport are horrible.
