    Two Hours to Go

    September 5, 2023 in Romania ⋅ ☀️ 77 °F

    Uneventful flight thus far. The Atlantic is well behind us … we are over the Balkans at present. Total flight time will be somewhere around 9 hours and 15 minutes when it is all said and done.

    We were wheels up around 11:30p EDT … 45 minutes behind schedule. Wined and dined. And then it was time to sleep. While the lie-flat seats on this B777-300 are not the most comfortable, it beats trying to catch a couple of winks while sitting upright. I think I managed about 4 hours of 😴.

    With two hours to go to IST, the cabin is slowly waking up. Breakfast service is about to begin. I think I’ll go with the pancake option instead of the omelet.

    Our delayed arrival into IST is still showing 3:35p Türkiye Time (GMT +3). That means we did not make up any of the delay leaving YYZ. No matter … still looking good to make our connection to ADB.
