LO270 AMS-WAW 2016.05.16

May, the month when the weather isn't too hot yet, but ain't too cold either. A great month for traveling around western Europe. This year the plan was for a quick visit in Paris, as a tourist, and even quicker visits in Prague and Amsterdam, as a spotter.

LO270 (0705-0900) AMS-WAW
SP-LIN Embraer 175

After a exhausting weekend in the Netherlands including some spotting, sightseeing and short nights it was time to return back to Warsaw, back to the daily routine.
After arriving early at the airport I drop my bag off and walk out for a photo with the famous "I amsterdam" monument and back to the terminal building. The queues for security were enormous and slow-moving. Thus, having 5 minutes until boarding time I got let in through the fast-track and after a walk (at a fast pace) I get to the gate (at the very end of the terminal) where, after two minutes, boarding starts. We board through a bridge over the technical road beside the terminal, down the stairs to the apron and up to the plane. The rest of the flight is smooth and pleasant. The cabin crew is fantastic and the flight passes at a glimpse of an eye. The flight is on time. In Warsaw greeted by some smiling ground crew (must say nice to be back with such a welcome). Quickly pick up my bag and head home for a quick change and on to the University. I was supposed to fly with my friends Robert and Mike but due to some misorganisation we did not book the same flights...

The weather is not on our side.
Airborne!

In case you had any doubt that you've arrived at the right airport.
