INTRODUCTION
Welcome to this new series of flights that will be quite long … but I won't say more for the moment :)
EuroAirport basel Mulhouse Fribourg
It's a grey winter day today, the perfect day to fly far, far away!
The upper ramp is now closed to any traffic, since there is a new drop off parking at the ground level:
Air France check in zone:
It is still Christmas time despite being January 05th :)
The FIDS:
We were a bit too early, the check in only opened two hours before the flight. We waited a bit and once the check in opened, our bags were quickly tagged to our final destination, somewhere north.
Security was easy and quick and we were airside no more than 5 minutes after check in. Once airside, there is this lovely classic, a 734 from Elinair:
Time to go to the lounge!

My lunch:
It was ok, not a fancy meal but it was appropriate for a lounge and it did its job. The only thing that bothers me is that they have no real dessert apart from some fruit stew and fresh fruits.
There is a very nice terrace where you can easily spot. Ellinair again:
