Previous report finished in the area for luggage delivery , now i can go to Domestic Terminal , i will need to wait 6 hours beofre my next flight
Therefore i need to go landside , and repass security and immigration again , even in transit
Ooops , that's one floor below ,
Before this i wanted to use one of these automates in order to reload my Ukrainian sim card
Only issue , its only in Russian Ukrainian
That's the FIDS for domestic flights , i checked it before coming to Kiev so iam not surprised by so low traffic
There are two waves , one in afternoon and the last in the night , and i just came between both
Therefore everything is closed
That will be my house for the next few hours
As a frequent flyer iam used to such events and things but i can imagine how a normal pax would react
Time pass very slowly , only interesting thing are women employees of the airport
Finally i was able to get the only visible 220v plug of the area , the other plugs delivered 380V
Bunch of plugs are available and dedicated for this but no seats around ! Quite stupid
Checkin desk are opening slowly , i decided to check my luggage and this is the last part of my trip
Then security (sorry i completely missed my pix , and i wasnt very keen to retry)
After 5 hours i'am airside . Honestly , it looks like Fumicino in Rome , without noise , people , lights and shops
No more time for brainstorming , lets go to the lounge
There are two Mastercard lounges in Boryspil , international and this one for domestic flights
The lady at desk greeted me like she was scared to speak english
Started to visit the lounge , i was almost alone at that time
I wasn't expecting that much , but instead it was a good surprise , only few missing details and this lounge could be perfect
Newspapers available
And the food
Decoration is kind of "so-so" , i liked the boxes , it gives you privacy , also i was lucky to be in front of TV/FIDS , so less troubles , only remote control is missing
My dinner and the usual travel documents
Followed by a dessert
On air is the Ukrainian version of "The voice - kids"
If i'am right , that should be the only terminal fir domestic flights , so in less than 10 minutes 5 flights will leave almost simultaneously from 5 different gates , add 2 more flights at 20.00 and that's all
Time to go , lounge is almost full , they even opened the second room , and the waitress is coming every 4 minutes to clean and take dishes
Toilets are clean , mission complete !
Boarding area , there is a really huge difference , between when i arrived and now , but when you remember what i told you earlier , 5x5 , that makes sense
That's my queue
Going through bridge
Quite a long one
Ok , , so we will board by paxbus
At least i will be able to spot and make a cover for this report
Reached my seat , i decided to seat in front because of the engines noise
Still waiting , meanwhile i'am working on the french draft of this report
I don't know why but i started to think about my weekend in Wroclaw , then one more time , like my brain want to say something but can't really figure out why
I was listening to the music played by the speakers of the plane , then at the end there was a jingle "Ryanair , low fares made simple" … No comment !
So in Ukraine they don't only recycle our buses
Push back , close to a TK
Meanwhile the lady seated next to me started to pray
Nothing else to show until LWO because its too dark
Pitch is small , i feel like a tuna , but for one hour its ok
Landing in Lviv , it was snowing this week , unlike in Kiev
Park next to this Motorsich , on this way from/to IEV
Now i can leave the plane and get my luggage
Exit
And here iam in Lviv , it was quite long for a city not that far from Warsaw , but its better by air than by road
Bye
See more
