  • A really nice approach and landing in Barcelona (BCN / LEBL) with some great views over Barcelona, on board a British Airways 737. With the French ATC strikes causing delays, we arrived 1 hour 40 minutes behind schedule.
    PLEASE READ:
    With our detour around France giving us an extra hour in the air, it gave us plenty of time to enjoy our flight on this aircraft! The service and crew were fantastic and the pilots were nice and friendly, allowing us into the cockpit at the end of our flight.
    Whilst the delay wasn't so bad on our outbound flight, our return flight that evening was delayed by 5 hours and after spending around 7 hours in Terminal 1 at Barcelona airport, we arrived back at Gatwick at 4am the next morning rather than 23:10 which was our scheduled arrival time. Terminal 1 is very nice though in Barcelona!

    I have been to Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Paris, Rome, Philippine, Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, and of course lot of Arabic cities, but my remaining Dream is Barcelona, i feel like you have been to no where if you didn't see this city!

    Stunning video mate:) The whole approach was really nice to watch. I think the view from your seat made the video a lot better because you can see a lot of the land, like the engine and wing doesn't take up all the frame, but you can still see the engine:) Liked.

    • @charlest103
      @charlest103  Před 10 lety +2

      Thanks! Yeah it was a great view from this seat! I definitely prefer being in front of the engine to behind the wing! :)

    Really the approach into BCN is very, very breathtaking. But the engine-noisy is such disturbing. Hopefully in the near future BA will replace their old B-737-jets with much more modern jets. Like the A320NEO/ceo.
