LET'S FLY TO DUBAI
Back in late 2021, my friend and fellow Flight-Report contributor, MichelG told me he found a great deal to go to Dubai for 990€ in Business ex - CDG. I couldn't resist and decided to join him on this trip.
I added connecting flights to CDG from BSL and as the return was to ZRH, will simply drop the last leg and get back home by train (1H30 from ZRH)
This was then the final routing :

REUNION WITH MICHELG
We agreed to meet at 0845 in front of the check in desk, time to leave the Sheraton :)

It was the same way but back, as the evening before :)


We were both happy to meet again (last time was a while ago … 3 days ^^)

Michel showed me a way to skip the 2D dutyfree, instead of entering it, you just have to go along this wall and through that open door:

And no more duty free :)
