I just passed near the libary and I saw Mohammad Javad Zarif, the Minister of Foreign Affairs in Iran!!! Can't belive that I saw him from a distance of 5m!

The day of the flight:
We were dropped in VIE airport at 5:30pm while our flight was at 8:25pm. We were eating some hamburgers in McDonalds and after that I used my great German and I passed quickly the check-in and the security.
I got seat 26F, but I changed my seat on the airplane to 14A to get a better view of the wing.
My boarding Pass:

Iraqi Airways Boeing 737-800, I think that nobody wants to board on this flight direct to ISIS's hands:

Conclusion

One thing that was bad but the other things were great - there wasn't ant entretainment/flight map durning the flight, not like 6 months ago when I flew to Warsaw via Vienna, the 3.5 hours of the flight can be boring. Breakfast was really tasty for my favor. Plane was quite old but it wasn't any problem for me because the cabin were new and comfortable.

I'm sure that I'll fly on Austrian Airlines again, maybe to Tokyo/Bangkok!!!
Hope you enjoy the Flight report and don't forget to left a comment,
