I had a wonderful idea to check my luggage to Kiev and not Warsaw (which is my final destination)
Once I get my cigarettes I can return
Before this I need to check-in and send my luggage
Then security / immigration
Once airside I have to pass through duty-free
Who wants a mini B735 or a mini embraer ?
Here is the price
Today I don’t wanna sit on benches , so I decided to trry the MassterCard's lounge
There are two lounges close to each other , better to try the next one , more spacious
News papers available , few but they are available not only in Russian/Ukrainian
This lounge is exactly the same as in domestic terminal , one floor below
Took something to eat , then slept like a baby for one hour
Ok now its really crowded , time to go
My favorite place in KBP
A Dutch is leaving
…. and a parisian will take his place
Meanwhile our gate changed , now it's D7 .
Boarding
Today we will fly with a dinosaur , a B735 , first flight for AF in 1993
.
Older members of this forum will for sure be happy to see this plane
We will be delayed , by 20 mins . Therefore I will be late at work
AF et LO , exactly the same gates as last week
Taxing
Oh , Nordica to TLL ???
Takeoff , and we can fly west
Goodbye Boryspil , see you next time , maybe in March
Something to read while waiting for landing , as this flight is so short , 1h , if you remove the 30mins for descent+landing
First magazine is from the Havabus
Nothing really exciting
Then Anadolujet , low-cost of TK
Something new (for me at least) now AnadoluJet operates only domestic flight , mostly from SAW and ESB
Anadolu Jet's , around 30 planes and same model
We can start our descent to Chopin , today is shaky because of winds
.
Nothing new here this afternoon
One pax was in such hurry that se jumped out of her seat before everybody , took her bag and seat in business class before gates opening
As usual in WAW
However this is not as usual
2 flights from KBP and one from MSQ arrived in the same time
It will be shorter than I expected however I missed my bus
Maybe in 2017 I will be FB gold
Such a nice bunch of flights today
I'd like to return to LWO but the question is when ???
No , I was there but couldn’t leave the plane
Too fast she was
That’s the correct city and the correct flight
So much people blocked in the queues , the system is blocked because of detectors cant find free slots in order to deliver luggage
Cant see mine , so it mean I will need to enjoy worldtracer
Alleluia , my baby is there
Ok , iam free to go and run
Bye
That's all folks

Conclusion
KBP = normal Lounge Mastercard = nothing special , its ultra basic lounge PS = today we had a 20 mins delay , because of this i was late at work WAW = when more than 2 flights from eastern europe land in the same time , for sure passports control is crowded
2 LIKESLIKE TO THANK THE AUTHORTHANKS ! FLIGHT-REPORT LIKED
Hi, many thanks for the series of UIA reports to IST and back. I'm flying them tomorrow to MSQ with a day long stopover in Kiev to see the city. A little bit afraid of an old 737-300 operating the WAW-KBP leg (it should be E190 but they have just changed it), I hope these "dinosaurs" are well maintained :) Have a nice weekend! Bye!
