To all aviation journalists : can put that story in front on Air France, Lufthansa, etc. and ask them if their values coïncide with doing business with a company collaborating with Russia?

If you have the time, I definitely recommend you get a meal at the Narrows, and then pass by Dee Dee's Ice cream, and Ramblers for Coffee.

I am not a fan of Osaka either and agrees with much of your take. That being said, there are interesting things if you are into buddhism and Shinto: - Shitenno-ji is - Sumiyoshi Taisha shrine, which is a very old one with pre-buddhist architecture and a lots of Shinto rituals there

People don’t realize how serious the situation is.

Wait until you go to Norway, I am 184 cm and I feel puny when I am there.

The photo does not show the coffee stains due to the turbulence we had until the pilot flying was authorized to change his flight level.

Little menu on board MUC-OSL. Interesting to have choices on a sub 2 hour flight for breakfast.

SebWotan @sebwotan.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

Up at stupid o'clock and breakfast in the lounge for today MUC-OSL//OSL-FRA. AKA the scenic route

Overall good flight, smooth and pleasant. Except the cabin crew closed all blinds after lunch (but did not say anything when I reopened mine).

Mid flight service and on demand dining. Sausage was bof.

First meal : really good, prawns were tasty and juicy

Menu for today, with 3 services as it is a day flight.

Here she is. Boarding very soon for the 12h flight back to MUC. It looks like a good day to flight, hopefully condition en route are just as good. This was an interesting trip to China but tiresome and actually, somewhat stressful due to the constant attention needed and sensory overload.

SebWotan @sebwotan.bsky.social · 29/09/2026

Definitely not possible. I am now in the lounge at PEK T3E. Took me 75 minutes to get there, the security process is bad on all aspects : queue management, layout, explanation, machines. Worst security I had done in years.

SebWotan @sebwotan.bsky.social · 29/09/2026

On my way to Peking Capital Airport, I depart from Terminal 3 but based on the screen on the express train there is an Air Koryo flight landing soon that will be docked at Terminal 2 for a couple of hours. Let see if I find a way to go see this plane.

I paid 210 euros for 4h20. First class seat is 65. Flying eco would also be 70 euros, business class would have been 200 euros. So comparable. But I can lie flat in the train. Train stations are often far from the downtown, sometimes as far as airports. Lounge better in airport, security in train.

SebWotan @sebwotan.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

Comfortable way to be at 350 km/h. Is it worth it ? It is quite expensive, even by western standards. For a short train no value. For a long one ? Well it depends can you afford it and whether flying Business instead makes more sense.

SebWotan @sebwotan.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

There is a free meal, on demand. This is the chicken dish. Mmmmh. They don't have the best reputation so this is purely for research purpose :D

Onboard I have a aisle access, fully flat seat with sleepers, magazine, IFE, snacks and water.

Today I am going back to Beijing from Xi'an. As a treat and to try I booked Business class on the high speed train, the highest class onboard china railway. It starts at the station with a dedicated entrance with fast track security bringing you straight to a lounge.

And since it's mid autumn I topped up with a mooncake while wandering the Muslim quarter (the non Disney-fied parts)

Got halal dumplings with beef and chives and 8 treasure congee, a porridge with nuts, seeds and dried fruits at Zhijiang dumplings, heart of the Muslim quarter. Place is super popular

A first : a convenience store in Xi'an station sold bottled water replaced by tap water. I did not hear the click when removing the cap, took a small sip and it had a taste. Spit it out immediately. Ugh.

Travelled to Xi'an in second class High speed rail. Legroom as good as first class but much less shoulder space. Pingyao Station was actually human sized (but had a huge parking space with some weird statue).

010

SebWotan @sebwotan.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

It was good but too much. 5 euros (and because I took beef dumplings which are far more expensive). Always go where locals go and the menu is in chinese

Found a good breakfast place outside the old city wall by looking for the one with the most locals inside

The vinegar yogurt is excellent: sweet and light. No idea how is that possible but I am getting another one tomorrow for breakfast before leaving 😃

Vinegar infused beef with boiled egg yolk is another excellent Shanxi specialty
