2 times a year I go to my native city - St. Petersburg. Last summer it was the first time that I made some pictures during the flight. Here it my trip report. Excuse me if I post it a bit late - I didn't have time before.
Part 1: Brussels-Paris-St. Petersburg:
8th July 2005, 12h35, Brussels South Railway Station. It's the first time that I'm taking a high speed train to Paris Charles De Gaulle. Our train have a "flight number" AF7192. Air France offers first class seats in Thalys
, that's great!1. Here is my train in Paris Charles De Gaulle Airport Railway Station, my air travel is beginning from here:
2. After I had some problems with buses: my bus didn't stop in terminal 2B, so I made a tour of all the terminals of Charles De Gaulle
. It took me 45 minutes. But fortunately I had 2 hours before my departure to St. Petersburg. After I passed all the usual staff like luggage registration, boarding etc... My flight AF2898 was on an Airbus A319. I got a seat 24F, one of the best I think. Here are we parked near a Boeing 737-400 of CSA:
