The last flight before my annual leave was taking me to the beautiful city of Cape Town in South Africa. It had been such a long time since I was last in Cape Town, and I couldn’t wait to be back and eat a beautiful dinner with a glass of South African red. The only…

Saddling Up In South Africa
As I previously mentioned in my February Roster I was given two back to back turn arounds to Muscat which I was trying to swap for ANY layover. As I always prefer getting to visit somewhere and the two short 45 minute flights didn’t rack up many flying hours. It honestly takes me longer to…
Spectacular South Africa
Bringing me back from my leave was a trip to Cape Town, which is a favourite destination of mine and one that I had been looking forward to since I saw it on my November roster. We flew out of Dubai International Airport at 4am and landed 9 hours 30 minutes later into South Africa…

Captivating Cape Town
First of all, apologies on my lack of posts recently. In my previous post, I said that I had changed my turn around flight to a layover in Birmingham which I had been really looking forward to. However the day before I was due to fly, I checked my roster to see it had been…
