Welcome to my new flight-reports!
First of all, my apologies for using the Super Constellation as cover, as this trip report won't cover a Connie flight, but you need to have something that catches eyes to be read, don't you?
This July, I decided to head to Key West for a short break, fasten your seat belts and if you'd like, you can follow my adventures ^^
- Euroairport- Amsterdam KL / J E90: Now
- Amsterdam - Atlanta DL / J A330-300: Later
- Atlanta - Key West DL / F B737-700: Even later
- Key West - Atlanta DL / F B737-700: Even later than later
- Atlanta - Paris CDG DL / J B767-400: After the even later than later
- Paris CDG - Euroairport AF / Y ATR72-500: Shouldn't be reported, unless a miracle happens.
As the lounge access is now granted for KL pax, I arrive early enough to enjoy one of the best lounges in Europe. It has not changed since my last, and Numéro 02, visits:
There is a slight difference however: the scrambled eggs and the lovely chicken sausages have disapeared. That's a pitty as it was the best part of the buffet :(
I'll head to the outside terrasse to spot a bit. You can clearly see who the master is here:
The Super-Constellation:
Two super-nothing known as ATR 72-500 bound for ORY and for CDG:
TNT 737-300C:
737-800 TUI Fly:
Air Berlin bound to PMI:
DHL A300 and an ATP behind:
Travel docs and my selection, as there are no sausages anymore, it is quite light:
Relaxing:
Close to boarding time, I head to the gate and I am able to spot my plane:
On time boarding, business class is called first, this is the Embraer cabin:
Seat pitch:
This button is something that you don'"/>
Here I am:
Easy for NCE:
Fedex, that spends the day in BSL before leaving late afternoon for CDG:
DHL does the same and leaves in the evening for BRU:
The ATP goes to LIG, if I remember well:
Take off facing north today:
PSU:
Safety Card:
Above the clouds I can spot our shadow:
Winglet:
The lavatory is clean, this is normal, I'"/>
Fwd left door:
Opening/Closing handle:
Galley:
The lovely purser brings me the breakfast box in a very classy style. However, the lids on the dishes are not removed, even if it is stated on them: remove before serving :)^^
That'"/>
The box is really looking nice:
I ate everything: it was good and fresh. The pastrami and the cheese were very good, so was the custard. A very good breakfast!
After an hour flight, we begin our descent towards wet Amsterdam:
For 747'"/>"/>
I really expected a flight on a Super Constellation, but the English version of this FR is no better than the French version :)
Cheers !
