Flight routing
- 1
My flight was departed at Terminal E, so let's go to Terminal E.
After a short walk, I finally made it to Terminal E.
Now I went to the departure gate of this flight.
Since the waiting time was very, so at the gate, I spent most of the time to take a nap and do some plane spotting.
Here was the departure gate of this flight: gate 35.
This was the aircraft for this flight, which just arrived from Brussels: a Boeing 737-800 with the registration of VQ-BVO, and it was 5.1 years old.
Boarding
This was my seat on this flight: seat 12A
Legroom was a bit tight to me.
Cup holder and tray table
Universal power outlet
Blanket was already provided at the seat
View from my window, and cabin view from my seat.
30 minutes after boarding, the aircraft started to pushback and taxi to the runway.
Take-off
In the seat pocket, I had: a safety card, two inflight magazine: one was Aeroflot and the another one was Aeroflot Style, a shopping catalogue of Aeroflot named SkyShop, and an instruction card about how to use wireless IFE system.
After take-off, menu was handed out.
Let's have a look at today flight's menu.
40 minutes after take-off, hot meals and drinks were served.
And this was the meal that I chose.
Main course: Teriyaki chicken with rice and broccoli.
Appetizer: Tuna salad.
Tula pryanik , which is a traditional Russian honey cake, bread roll and cheese spread.
Rye bread, butter, and mayonnaise.
For drink, I asked for a cup of berry juice.
This meal was very huge. There were a lot of food on this tray, and I was really impressed with that. I didn't expect to have a lot of food on this red-eye flight.
Because this flight was a red-eye flight and I had a long journey today so I spent most of the flight time to take a rest and to sleep.
When I woke up, the aircraft was began to descend, and the aircraft hitted a slight turbulence at that time.
After over 2 hours in the air, the aircraft started to descend and prepared for landing, and the beautiful sceneries of Azerbaijan at night started to appear outside the window.
Landing
Disembarkation
My journey had ended at Terminal 1, Heydar Aliyev International Airport, Baku. Thank you for reading and watching, and see you in the next report :D
Looks like a good flight with Aeroflot! I am impressed they had menus and a full meal served on a 2 hour 35 minute flight.
Thank you for sharing!
Thank you for your comment. I agree with you: their inflight services were excelent :D
Wow, I'm pleasantly surprised by Aeroflot's product on this short 2.5 hr intl flights with a full hot meal in Y. The Boeing Sky Interior is nice and the seats are an older, thick and more comfortable variety than the ever-popular slimline seats we see so often these days. The only thing missing is IFE, which appears to only be in the J cabin (which I not are the same seats as DL Domestic F).
Thanks for sharing this cool report on a very exotic route!
