A visual of my journey from Wrocław to Stockhom which would cover a distance of 515mi.
Introduction
Welcome to another TR. After spending some time exploring this wonderful city, it was now time to move on to my next destination on this trip around Europe. Today I'll be traveling up north to Stockholm, Sweden. I will be taking Ryanair and this will be my second time flying them on this trip.
Journey to airport
After doing some research, I decided on taking the 106 bus from the city center to the airport as it was the most efficient and cost effective method. Not to mention that there are buses that go from here to the airport every 30 minutes or so.
The process of buying a bus ticket was simple and straightforward.
Once onboard you validate your ticket and take a seat. The bus journey to the airport takes about 45 minutes.
Soon enough we we almost there and I can already spot the airport terminal.
Check-in
Soon enough I finally arrived at the airport.
Wrocław is famous for its dwarf figurines found throughout the city. It was very fun to see one at the airport with 'ready for travel' theme!
Welcome to Wrocław Nicolaus Copernicus international airport!
My flight is FR 2354 with a scheduled departure time of 15:50.
Was able to easily find the check-in desks for my flight where I'll go shortly to drop off my bags.
Security control went very smoothly and I was airsde in just 15 minutes.
I even found another dwarf at the duty free shop, albeit made out of chocolate 😅.

My aircraft
Here comes my Boeing 737-800 arriving from Zadar, Croatia.
Today I'll be traveling on SP-RSV which was delivered new to Ryanair on March 14, 2017. Making her about 7 years old at time of this flight. As with my last flight with Ryanair from Stockholm to Krakow, this flight will also operated by Buzz Airlines (plane and crew) on behalf for Ryanair.
This aircraft is configured in an all economy layout for a total capacity of 189 seats. Today I'll be seated in 29F which was included to choose with my fare.
Boarding
Boarding began on time and we were kept in the airbridge while the other passengers were deplaning.
As with my last flight with Ryanair from Stockholm to Krakow, this flight will also operated by Buzz Airlines (plane and crew) on behalf for Ryanair.
Since I'm seated in the back of the plane, I got the privilege to walk pass the plane and board through the aft door.
Seat 29F
My seat for the next 1h 45m.
Immediately in front you have the buy-onboard menu via a QR code and the safety card imbedded in the seatback.
Legroom as expected is tight but not terrible. These seats offer 30" of pitch.
The overhead panel consisted of both an individual airvent and reading light in addition to a flight attendant call button.
Boarding is complete and today's flight load up to Stockholm this afternoon is fairly full at 80% capacity.
Pushback
We pushed back from the gate right on time.
Takeoff on runway 30
Until next time Wrocław! Hope to visit again soon!

Eventually we broke through the thick cloud layer into the clear blue skies above.
We eventually reached cruising altitude at 36,000ft.
Inflight buy-onboard menu
Let's take a look at the buy-onboard menu which you need to scan via the QR code.
There's an impressive selection of food items to buy onboard.
The options are great from pizza's, lasagna's and sandwiches to chips and chocolates.
Although the prices are a little bit on the steep side, the options are there available for you if you wish to buy something.
Tray table
Let's take a quick look at the tray table.
The tray table was of descent size.
Initial descent
Before I knew it we began our initial descent into Stockholm.

Welcome to Stockholm 🇸🇪!
Arrival at gate
We arrived at the gate 10 minutes ahead of schedule, well done Ryanair!
Once again we also had to deplane using the aft doors. The weather here is identical to what we left back in Poland.
One last look at my 737, thanks for the safe flight!
This concludes the TR, thanks for reading!
