1. There was an announcement for passengers from Bangkok.

3. The plane headed across Gulf of Finland toward Vilnius.

Two noodle meals a day by Finnair

Short Baltic trip: The Beginning

Asian noodle

It was a long day flight from Bangkok to Helsinki.  I wish it was a night flight so that I can sleep instead of sitting bored.  However, a lunch tasted good.  Chinese noodle with chicken was served with bread, cheese, and cucumber salad.  Wine was free but a can of beer cost 5 euros.


I tried to watch movies from seat screen in front of me which came so close to my face because a man reclined his seat.  My eyes were too tired so I just grabbed an earphone and listen to Finnish rock songs!

European noodle

Three hours before landing, flight attendants started walking again.  I expected another big meal but when I opened a foil, I got only a small cup of vegetarian pasta! which was about 1/3 of my stomach.  This time the taste was so mild.  At that time I imagined the food I'll face next 7 days.

Finally! Landing at Helsinki

Morning flight to Berlin

An Austrian Airlines flight to Berlin took off in the morning.  Clear sky over the city of Vienna appeared for a short time.  After few minutes, thick clouds covered until landing at Berlin Tegel Airport.
