After couple of very nice days in Sopot

which tourist’s season is in it’s height – it was time for an early start .
Actually I overslept , for 1st time after many many years! Good , the taxi driver came early and after 5 minutes the reception guy was knocking on the door .
Quick ride to Gdansk airport, where 6 am is kind of a peak hour .There were two Wizz flights

as well as SAS flight to CPH

in addition to our domestic one.

After the security check quick glance through the windows :

Then morning coffee in the small , but very nice business lounge:

Drink service only on this short domestic hop and soon we were descending towards Warsaw.

Again interesting clouds – very thin layer of them :

The flight was uneventful , standard service , around 60% passenger load.

Initially I think the routing was for approach on RWY 27.

Crossed the Danube over Oryahovo :

It was probably meant for another website :-D
I bet somewhere on the net, someone is trying to make sence of the bunch of weird characters in an english-language forum lol :)))))
A landing is simply a controlled collision with the ground!
The 3 most useless things in aviation are the sky above, the fuel on the ground and the runway behind you.

These were some top notch air shots of Sofia's western districts.

As far as it concerns this shot...
Изображение
...this is Dobroslavtzi.

Pepsii, I will move this nice trip report to the English section for our foreign friends if you don't mind. :wink:

It is not meant for another site , just i get bored by the same route descriptions etc ... Next week flying through Warsaw again so you may expect one in Russian , or Hungarian ;-)
