Answer
- When he got a tablet, he could read, watch films, etc. (maybe didn’t have time for this normally).
- Probably it was expensive and he didn’t realise the bus would take so long.
- It was very early and he was tired and didn’t set his alarm. No-one woke him. (Airlines often don’t call if you only have hand luggage and have checked in online, which the author does.)
- He didn’t realise the airport was so big (and maybe the ticket was cheaper). Perhaps he didn't want to have to wait a long time for a connection.
- He normally goes to that particular airport and he didn’t check his ticket carefully enough.
- He arrived so early that the boarding gate wasn’t listed on the departures board.
