@JSS779 Very pink. As is "die grüne Zitadelle" in #Magdeburg. I've been there, but couldn’t quite work out what it was: shopping? offices? flats? Very #pink, anyway. #Barbie

I've stayed here and confirm that it is very pink 😃😃

@SimonCalder Why use a picture so old it's got a flybe flight on it? Can't someone take a picture of the departure board as it is today to illustrate the story? #lazyjournalism

@paul_winginit Air Anglia. F27s ✈️🙂

@AirlineGeeks @wow_air @AerLingus Not sure it's such a good idea to begin a tweet "Before its bankruptcy..." above a picture of an Aer Lingus plane. At first glance, one might get the wrong impression.🤣 I did read on, though. WOW was shortlived, but innovative. Of course, both Iceland and Ireland are IN Europe!

Now that's wingtastic! Flap track fairings the size of small light aircraft on this lovely #A380 at @aero_scopia museum in #Toulouse. #wingfriday #planespottinglive #aviation #avgeek

Did the @Airbus factory tour with @GManatour and #aviationmuseum @aero_scopia - brilliant! #bucketlist Saw the #A350 final assembly line and loads of new aircraft, incl. a BA one leaving on delivery.

@TeesTraveller I'm on that flight too. Aircraft came in late from ATH, so maybe missed its A gate slot.

Terminal 5 domestic flight (LHR-NCL) departing from a B gate? New one for me. No prior warning so either I’m missing the plane or we are taking off late…

@JustAnother_Ben Well done! Just got on a 102% full NCL flight myself. Phew! 😁 Enjoy your trip.

@tashecon We need more Britons learning foreign languages for all sorts of reasons; but especially Russian, Chinese and Farsi to understand and spy on our 'enemies'. @Chris_D_Steele @FCDOGovUK @LanguageLog

After my #steakandchips débacle in #BuenosAires last week, finally got my entrecôte + frites today in #Toulouse. Very nice. (Peppercorn sauce was cold, though. Is that normal?) #frenchcuisine

@ElectoralCommUK Number of cases of electoral fraud or personation in Uxbridge & South Ruislip: 0. Number of crimes, lies and fraud allegedly perpetrated by the former MP: 58 billion 🤣🤣

Voting on 20 July? You'll need to bring photo ID to vote in the Uxbridge and South Ruislip by-election. Check you have an accepted form of photo ID: electoralcommission.org.uk/i-am-a/voter/v…

@EXYUaviation @airserbia My quest is, for now, over. And not in a good way. I have had official confirmation from a fellow #airline #sickbag collector that #AirSerbia bags are plain white with no logo, and thus eminently uncollectable. A small disappointment, I know, in the grand scheme of things. #Hope

@EXYUaviation Oh dear. Not much hope for me, then, on #stafftravel. Still need to fly @airserbia to get a #sickbag for my collection! 🤣 #id90

#AirSerbia’s average loads on New York service exceeded 98% in March #serbia #USA exyuaviation.com/2023/06/air-se…

@NewcastleFlyer For a change, we've not been following in each other's footsreps this week, though I was in Germany too trying out the NCL-FRA LH CR9. Very nice plane 🙂✈️

Some photos from Nuremberg🇩🇪

In Buenos Aires. Asked for steak and chips. Came without the chips. "Sorry, we have no potatoes. So we gave you extra salad." NOOOOOOOOO! #Argentina #steakandchips #salad

Eye eye. Ear ear. Sat right near the back by the rear-mounted engines of this lovely @lufthansa #CRJ900 from @NCLairport to @Airport_FRA

Love an old clackety-clack departure board. @Airport_FRA Deciding on my next destination (not Edinbu-gh!). #ID90 #StaffTravel First time using LH now my airline has joined #myidtravel @JustAnother_Ben

Not had a #marshallingmonday for a while. This one is from Friday at london City #LCY with their unique set up, with a marshaller bringing the aircraft in, and then passing off to the corner marshaller for the turn and park.

@endaburke81 Haha. The main focus for my trips is whether I'm going to get a nice new design of #sickbag for my collection!

Nearly every man and their dog seems to be doing airline trip reports these days and nearly every man and his dog always moan about nothing on these trips. I’m just happy to get from A to B. Absolute jokers out there expecting emirates type service from low cost airlines 😂

Yay! Got my 17th #Schengen country #passportstamp today. Working on getting the full 26 before @ETIASnews the EU travel ETA thingy stops #passportstamps in 2024. @VisitLuxembourg @SimonCalder
