Thank You for Your Disturbing

Got back to Shanghai yesterday after a pleasant four days on Guam. My sunscreen must have been out of date so I'll be remembering Guam for a few more days. Had to pass through Osaka again but the layover was just a couple of hours. As we were landing at Osaka's offshore airport the pilot suddenly aborted the landing and took back off. It looked like he had been trying to land on the terminal. He made a 25-minute loop and retried successfully. The Japanese pilot came on the PA system a few minutes after the missed landing and told us it was "because of a separation" and "thank you for your disturbing".
