Out of interest, I hope you don't mind me asking, but do you have family or work in MAH? That's a lot of flights to the same place!

This one seems weird to me since Flybe doesn't operate any A320. Largest thing they fly is the E190, so either it's not an A320 or it's not Flybe.

I must have been tired last night when writing this! I'm actually flying with EasyJet on an A320.

It's now too late for me to edit it though.

Not as much as last year as I am very busy in university, but I managed to squeeze in a day trip to the Monarch Airlines hangar in STN.

DUB - STN FR B737-800 EI - EMN - an a/c that got it's winglet stuck in a fellow FR's elevator a while back...

STN - DUB FR B737-800 EI - FRE - my first BSI interior. Hate the new seats.

And hopefully if weather goes to plan I'll be in a Cessna tomorrow for the first time, at Newcastle Airfield

After getting a travel bug, I booked a couple of weekend trips in July and August. These are also my first flights using my new Qantas FF account as it is getting hard to keep my AA status since I do not fly American all that much anymore (if I am lucky a few times a year). Looking forward to building up status with Qantas (and flying them home through DFW or SFO and not going AA through LAX).

Never flown on a 717 before. So I'm quite excited about the Salt Lake trip.

Other plans include DEN-ORF in October (airline and connection to be determined)

Flew back from SNA last Monday. By chance ended up on only the 2nd revenue flight for N308FR. Flo the Flamingo.

The stewardess was upset that on the first revenue flight, it was full of kids (Disneyland - go figure) and the little monsters had ground cereal into the floor and smeared chocolate all over the brand new plane!

This year is quite busy in terms of workload, so not really a chance to fly as much as usual. Also, LH has really stepped up their pricing on my usual FRA-HAM segment which means I am choosing rail on more occasions than I used to. Oh and for some reason, London is 'dominating'.
