Flying via King Island on the Saab 340 With Covid completely under control in Australia, a week and a bit ago I decided to take the opportunity to travel interstate for the first time in two and a half years. Having flown in and out of Hobart, Launceston, Burnie, Cape Barren, and Flinders, the logical […]
The shortest hop aboard the Metroliner With interstate travel still largely impossible, last October I took the opportunity to fly Launceston to Burnie return with Sharp Airlines. This flight continues on to King Island, but with my limited budget I chose just the initial leg. As I would be disembarking at Burnie/Wynyard, I was seated […]
Flying on Cape Barren Island’s lifeline service After a series of flight cancellations and rebookings last year, I ended up having the opportunity to fly to both Cape Barren Island/truwana and Flinders Island with Par Avion (Formerly Airlines of Tasmania), aboard their Cessna 404. Par Avion use Sharp Airlines’ facilities at Launceston, and as such, […]
Upper deck on the Super Jumbo! My first post of 2021 was supposed to be a REX Saab 340 trip report, however the re-emergence of COVID community transmission in Melbourne forced a last minute cancellation of the trip, so hopefully yet another SIA trip report isn’t too boring! To better reflect my schedule, I have […]
Paris to Changi on, yet another SIA super jumbo Even though I have already published an economy class trip report aboard Singapore Airlines’ Airbus A380, I have decided against condensing the return legs of our 2018 trip to Europe into a single post, although I might not continue posting them in chronological order, so there […]
Flying on SIA’s Super Jumbo to the UK capital The final leg of the first half of our trip to the UK and Europe back in 2018 was Singapore Airlines flight SQ308, onboard Airbus A380-800 9V-SKL. I was pretty jetlagged by this point, so I don’t have too many pictures. During our two night layover, […]
Taking a Triple Seven to the Garden City The second leg on our trip to Europe, back in 2018, was MEL-SIN on board Singapore Airlines’ Boeing 777-300ER (9V-SWW), my first flight on the triple seven. I took loads of pictures, and kept a lot of stuff from this flight, so this trip report will be […]
Heading to Tullamarine on the Baby Boeing Back in July 2018 my family and I headed off on a whirlwind trip to the UK and Europe, our first leg was Hobart to Melbourne on Virgin Australia’s Boeing 737-800, VH-YFG. I’d like to apologise in advance for the poor photo quality, the camera I was using […]
Returning home on Virgin Australia’s workhorse After spending four days enjoying the sights and sounds of northern NSW back in autumn 2018, it was time for me to head back home, but this time out of Brisbane International (BNE) onboard Virgin Australia Boeing 737-800, VH-YFP. After a two hour drive I arrived at Brisbane’s domestic […]
Taking Tigerair’s A320 to the sunshine state With the Tigerair brand being retired earlier this year as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, I decided I would revisit my sole flight with the aforenoted airline. Back in April 2018 I took flight TT852 from Hobart to the Gold Coast/Coolangatta. With one of Tigerair’s receipt style […]
