Kremlin´s maps- Moscow (Russia)

Nice advert to finish the year

As 2011 is ending, I would like to share with you a nice video compelling the history of aviation from BA.

Actors in the ad are real BA´s employees and the last scene, where all the planes are flying at the same time, was the most tough.

Happy New Year!

How funny and opposite to now, pleople can´t wait to leave the plane (all airlines in general):

Eva Air and Hello Kitty

I am not joking. Eva Air has teamed with Hello Kitty to create its second generation of Hello Kitty planes.

All started in 2005 when they decided to get the first two planes of the doll. And in 2011 they finished the last one, being a total of 5 in the fleet.

This is the real plane, no joking

If you want to live the experience of flying in a fully Hello Kitty decorated plane: trays, stewardess, napkins, boarding pass... I think you got the idea, the only way to enjoy it is going to east Asia. At present, none of the aircrafts are flying internationally. 

boarding pass

But I am sure for the really Hello Kitty fans, it is worth it.

Stewardesses

Their website is only giving more information in chinese, but you can admire this marvellous pinky thing, they even have music! You can see all the routes in this map. Taipei-Seoul, Taipei-Tokyo, Taipei-Fukuoka, Taipei-Sapporo y Taipei-Hong Kong are all the available.

Adverse weather conditions in Scotland

The strong winds afecting Scotland are making really difficult for planes to leave, so before going to the airport, check the latest information at the BBC website or online with the airline your are flying with.

Winds are expected to be ut to 90mph and some offices have been evacuated for security reasons.

Vueling doing a lip dub

Vueling is one of my favourite airlines. Even though they lost my luggage for one week and they belong now to Iberia. They take me every time I need to fly from Heathrow to Coruña. More expensive each time, by the way.

But I liked their natural spontaneity in this lip dub:
