For the ‘Early May Bank Holiday’, I took a short trip to Porto for the Bachelor Party of a friend of mine. I booked flights from London to Porto on TAP Air Portugal. I had a few choices of carrier from London, including Ryanair (which my friends flew) from Stansted, British Airways from Heathrow, andContinue reading “TAP Air Portugal Porto to London”

Easter trip to Berlin (part 4: WAW-LHR)
After going the exact opposite direction of London from Berlin to Warsaw, I was ready to go to London. Once inside Warsaw airport, I made my way toward the non-Schengen border control. I stopped by the duty-free store and then had an extremely friendly and efficient border guard who gave me my first Poland stamp! Continue reading “Easter trip to Berlin (part 4: WAW-LHR)”
Easter trip to Berlin (part 3: BER-WAW)
I had a great long weekend seeing my friends in Berlin and getting to know some new friends of friends (who are now friends). Unfortunately, come Monday, it was time to leave them and return to work. They were staying a few more days to go to more events (and because they had much fartherContinue reading “Easter trip to Berlin (part 3: BER-WAW)”
Easter trip to Berlin (part 2: ZRH-BER)
After my chance to try out the A220, I connected directly onto a Swiss flight to Berlin. I had booked myself a 45-minute layover, since I’d read that Zurich airport was very efficient. The incoming flight was delayed by about 10 min, but I wasn’t too worried because I figured I’d either make it orContinue reading “Easter trip to Berlin (part 2: ZRH-BER)”
Easter trip to Berlin (part 1: LCY-ZRH)
While I was in Boston, the two friends I was visiting told me that they were heading to Berlin around the Easter weekend. I have a general policy that if any of my friends show up to Europe, I’ll join them for the weekend. Normally it’s because I haven’t seen them for a while, butContinue reading “Easter trip to Berlin (part 1: LCY-ZRH)”

An Autumn Escape (part 2: Sweden to London)
After the last flights, we spent a nice, serene four days in Stockholm. We went to the zoo and to the Vasa museum. The Vasa museum was particularly noteworthy; the ship had capsized on its maiden voyage in 1628 and then sat preserved for over 300 years before being raised and then having a museumContinue reading “An Autumn Escape (part 2: Sweden to London)”
Back to the UK on Finnair!
Hi everyone! Krister and I had a nice trip to Finland. I spent most of the time sitting outside in the sun and the rest of the time working from home, so not a bad trip overall. But alas, it was time to return to the UK and resume normal(ish) life. Learning from last time,Continue reading “Back to the UK on Finnair!”
Finnair Eurobusiness during the pandemic
Well, it’s been a long lockdown, but Europe is slowly starting to reopen and allow more travel. For this trip, Krister and I are in Finland specifically to visit his parents (15 July – 26 July). This is the first time we will have seen them since we got engaged, and Finland is now allowingContinue reading “Finnair Eurobusiness during the pandemic”

This is a continuation of the previous post for Club Europe from Helsinki Upon arriving in London, Krister and I parted ways. I continued on to Manchester after a connection in Heathrow. Flights from Helsinki on both BA and Finnair arrive into Terminal 3, so I had to take a shuttle bus for arriving passengersContinue reading “Bonus Club Europe flight for me!”
