Life hacks for Lockdown Layover (SIN, PVG)
Starting a thread to provide hacks for surviving lockdowns (can't leave hotel room).
1. If its more than 24hours, you're probably gonna wanna make some Pruno (prison wine). The instructions are on the internet, but you're going to need some supplies. Before flight, order a bunch of fruit plates to take to room. Take all available sugar from coffee catering to room with you. Bring yeast from home, or take dinner rolls from crew meal. Bring empty Crystal Geyser water bottles for storing and trading wine. You'll need a large garbage bag too, although dry cleaning bag might work.
2. Bring Allen wrenches. Unscrew small vanity mirror in bathroom. Use it to see what's going on in your hallway.
3. Prison tattoo. Luckily, most of the supplies are in your room. You will need to bring a lighter to melt some plastic (battery cover on tv remote?). Use spring from hotel pen for needle. Use body lotion in your ink mixture.
4. You'll want to establish your Hallway cred early on. Find the biggest guest you can and punch them in the face.
5. Use the room service guy to transport your trades (Pruno, smokes) with other guests. Oh, bring smokes.
6. Other hacks?
