Morning all!

I booked a few flights last night and wondered if anyone here has done or does do anything similar. I like to fly on different types of aircraft and will look for different places to go to on something other than 'the usual' It passes the time I suppose ;)

Myself and Plama are doing the following in Oct:

Stansted - Milan (Ryanair 737-800)
Milan - Otopeni (Carpatair Fokker 70)
Stop in Otopeni for the day/night
Otopeni - Dusseldorf via Timisoura (Carpatair Saab 2000)
Day stop in Dusseldorf
Dusseldorf - Gatwick (Flybe Dash 8 Q400)

Over the past few years, we've flown:

Luton - Dublin (Ryanair 737-800)
Dublin - Blackpool (Ryanair 737-800)
Blackpool - Isle of Man (Manx2 Let410)
Day stop
Isle of Man - Dublin (Aer Arann ATR42)
Dublin - Luton (Ryanair 737-800)

Gatwick - Barcelona (easyJet A319)
Barcelona - Madrid (Spanair 717-200)
Day stop
Madrid - Gatwick (easyJet A319)

Stansted - Berlin (Air Berlin Fokker 100)
Day and night stop
Berlin - Dusseldorf (Deutsche BA Fokker 100)
Day stop
Dusseldorf - Stansted (Air Berlin Fokker 100)

Birmingham - Edinburgh (Flybe 146-300)
Day stop
Edinburgh - Birmingham (Flybe 146-300)

Planned but cancelled:
London City - Bremen (OLT Saab 2000)
Bremen - Berlin (OLT Metroliner)
Night stop
Berlin - Dusseldorf (Deutsche BA Fokker 100)
Day stop
Dusseldorf - Stansted (Air Berlin Fokker 100)

2 weeks ago, I went to a BBQ in Belgium. Could have got a discount with Cityjet (previous employer) but went with Luxair instead. Flew:
London City - Luxembourg (Luxair Embraer 135)
Day and night stop Belgium
Luxembourg - London City (Luxair Dash 8 Q400)

Call me mad but it's good fun! Hope everyone is well :thumbsup:
