A tale of two cranes. When #Lufthansa introduced the new livery in 2018, the first dozen of planes came with a slightly darker shade of blue and a thinner/smaller tail logo. Hard to spot in grey weather, but #avgeeks know. Watch out in better light. #design #livery #aircraft

That’s a wrap.
Last leg today with an opportunity for a nice #wingfriday picture. #LH1938 from foggy #MUC to sunny #BER.
Let the weekend begin.

When planning a same day return flight it’s wise to book back-to-back tickets so that a (e.g. weather related) delay of the inbound flight won’t cause trouble with your outbound flight. Besides, you’ll love the look of the crew when you board the direct return. #ZAG #MUC #LH1727

Avgeek doing #avgeek things:
some airports are very suitable for direct turnarounds. #Zagreb is one of them. First to deboard, just a few steps up to the departure level and first to board again.

Airlines hate this trick. 💰
Flying to #ZAG this morning, only to take the same plane back to #MUC. Why?
#LH1726 is the last leg of my super cheap C class Amman ticket.
#LH1727 is the return flight of my positioning flight to/from Berlin. I did my math, it’s a bargain. #avgeek

When the flight is short but the curtain is only behind row 10, flight attendants will have a busy time to serve everyone. Today‘s crew of #OS189 mastered that challenge with a smile. Well done! #VIE #MUC #A320 #avgeek #paxex

#Vienna has a minimum connecting time of 30mins between an incoming non-Schengen and an outgoing Schengen flight. Quite challenging, even under good conditions (early arrival/front seat/fast immigration and security) when your inbound flight has a tarmac position.
Made it! #VIE

On-time departure in #AMM, early arrival in #VIE.
Less than four hours onboard OE-LBL, a 22 year old #A320.
Tasty dinner included.

On a previous visit during nighttime in between two late/early flights I wasn’t exactly impressed by RJ‘s Crowne Lounge at #AMM.
But with more buffet options and several live cooking stations open now, things look much better. Not to forget the ice cream machine. #paxex #lounge

Amman‘s Queen Alia International airport may not be as big or shiny as most airports on the Arabian peninsula, but it provides all the services the average passenger asks for.

Why stay in grey and rainy #FRA when it’s nicely warm and sunny in #AMM? #LH692 brings me to the Jordan capital. Almost on time. #A320neo #Lünen #avgeek #aviation

Say goodbye to Croatia Airlines’ triangle checkerboard logo. While this 25y/o #A319 still sports it, you won’t find it on their new #A220 anymore. 9A-CTL brings me from #ZAG to #FRA as #OU416.

The opening of the new terminal in 2017 was a huge improvement to #Zagreb airport’s infrastructure. Spacious, modern and efficient. The nice one-for-all Primeclass lounge has an unexpectedly large variety of dining options.
Pleasant surprise!

Braathens Regional Airlines and its subsidiary Braathens Regional Airways have entered financial restructuring. The former returned their Airbus fleet to the lessor, the latter keeps operating. Like today’s #OS603 from #VIE to #ZAG.

55 minutes from #BER to #VIE on #OS224. Arrival ahead of schedule despite a slightly delayed departure. Let’s keep it this way for the next legs of this trip.

Who doesn’t love a wide-body jet for a short continental flight? At least one extra hour of sleep on a lie-flat seat. Greatly appreciated today. Super motivated crew cabin too.

With parts of the TK Business Lounge at Istanbul airport closed for renovation, it is currently not a place to ‘relax more’. Heavily overcrowded during the morning wave. Not enough seating options, long lines at the food stations, showers only after a lengthy wait. Awful #paxex.

Already making my way back home. Basically in the same seat as on LOT‘s Dreamliner two nights ago, but in a fresher design. Despite TK‘s great menu, just a light soup is the perfect choice. Along with some extra sleep time. #PEK #IST #TK089 #B773 #avgeek

Beijing Capital‘s terminal 3 was a stunning piece of #airportarchitecture back in 2008, but there has been little modernisation since. CA‘s lounges feel like time capsules and most shops are closed permanently. The whole building seems oversized. More prestige than demand? #PEK

Another early transfer through Seoul #ICN. Very clean, modern and efficient airport with plenty of lounge options. Hope those colourful #Asiana tails will still stick around for a little longer. #Incheon #airport #transit #avgeek

The menu had mostly Korean inspired options, but the pre-ordered choices included some classic Polish dishes too.

I was on LSD tonight. SP-LSD to be precise, one of the newer Dreamliners in LOT‘s fleet.
Not the most modern hard product, but with very compatible prices towards Asia. Next stop: Seoul.

Five of those little birds left in the LOT fleet. Small, yet big enough for a very light load on this early flight to Warsaw.
On-time departure, early arrival. A good start to another long-distance trip. #BER #WAW #LO392 #EMB170 #avgeek

Different type of plane, same type of C class seat. But this time marketed as First Class on this 55 minute widebody flight from #DOH to #KWI.

A night at the museum? That’s what it feels like when you enter QR‘s First Class lounge at #DOH airport. But there’s more than just endless hallways. Several dining options, dayrooms, working spaces, spa treatments and quiet areas.
Too much to enjoy in just a 2 hour layover. #paxex #avgeek #Qatar

Yesterday’s last flight out of #BER was #QR084.
Unfortunately no #Qsuite this time, but still a comfortable seat. Opted for the light meal to get some sleep on this short 5 hour flight to #DOH.

Servus, Austrian. With my FRA-BER flight cancelled, I was
re-routed through Vienna. Flight #OS220 began behind the curtain for me, until the very attentive purser noticed my recent birthday. I ended up in row 2 and received a lovely surprise. Great crew, great #paxex.

🎶 Nel blu, dipinto di blu 💙
Felice di stare lassù

E volavo volavo felice più in alto del sole ed ancora più su
Mentre il mondo pian piano spariva lontano laggiù 🎶

Seat 02A may well be in front of the curtain, but since #AZ1578 from #AHO to #FCO is an all-economy class flight of roughly an hour, ‘the menu’ is a bit limited. Flight on time and a shiny blue aircraft. What else could I ask for?

After Cagliari and Olbia, Alghero-Fertilia #airport is the third busiest airport on the island of Sardinia, mainly served by low-cost airlines. It offers a pay per use fast track and Priority Pass lounge. ITA airways prefers not to pay for it for their premium passengers. #paxex
