Well, I guess better late than never, eh? I'm very behind on reading and reviewing. You did a super job with this prompt, Snod. Your usual writing style comes through. Love the deep POV of your paramedic. Sounds like Zombie Airlines.

Comment from Judy Couch
Wow! This is a terrific story. It's sort of a doomsday type. I hope you're planning to continue with it. I'd like to see what happens next.

Comment from Adri7enne
Dark, pretty horrifying, but so well described, snod. Kept me rivited all the way through. So, not rabies, but something that spread faster. Maybe that's what's wrong with the world, uh? LOL!
"I caught an image of a face contorted in rage before() I knocked him back and we fell to the ground..." Insert a space before (I).
Good luck in the contest. Sounds like a winner to me!

Thanks. Governments have done zombie apocalypse scenarios, simply because of a possibility of a virulent pandemic suddenly taking place. Scarier than any fiction I could write

I probably shouldn't have read this, I am not too fond of horror, but I skipped the end! Well-written with quite a twist to the tale. Good use of descriptive language, good dialogue, interesting characters, strong story line. I wouldn't have liked to be on that plane. I liked your use of humour throughout, it adds to the attraction of the story. I spotted couple of errors, hope you don't mind, Para 2, line 2, having, Para 6, nodded and said.... Para 9, at a pinch. Good luck in the contest. Faye

Mind you pointing out the errors? I'm grateful for them, and for the review. Thanks

This rates a sixer! But I don't have any sixers on me. Zero flaws, plenty of action, plenty of control of the story, VERY believable! You might want to aim for publication if you haven't yet. With minimal effort, seems to me, you've transformed the mundane into something monstrous. You did so with much subtlety!!
Bravo!
Mike
