Day 15

Return day, sigh. Times flies when you’re having fun. We wake up early. Very early. Too early for my liking, to catch

Thanks to STE+ status we seat in Economy Comfort. The cabin is crowded:







Whoa! I almost forgot the obligatory toilet pic:



Soaring through the clouds:







Uneventful flight. We land in time and head to AZ lounge (AF is being restructured). The lounge is meh: clean, but the offer of food and drinks could use some love. The AF lounge is restructuring, so we stop here anyway. I spot a couple of planes as well:







At 5 pm we reach the gate where boarding is ready to start.

Cabin view:

















The FAs hand us amenity kits (there are two versions, male and female – of course I forget to take pics), offer OJ (still the blood orange one – joy!) and sparkles and leave the menus:







Soon after departure,



The tables are prepared for lunch and I forget to take note of the wines list. Mea culpa, mea maxima culpa. This time I blame waking up too early.

Asiago cheese mousse with bread croutons tomato and orange peel – 8 / 10. Finally a good starter.



Vegetables and pecorino dumplings and pasta with PDO San Marzano tomatoes and basil – 9 / 10. Tasty! The FAs come for a second round and ask what I would like. My honest answer is: everything. They then proceed to refill my dish at an unbelievable level. O double joy!



Pistachio, ginger and wild greens stuffed chicken breast – 9 / 10. Tasty, tender.



In the meantime I test all the red wines they have on board.

Italian delice – 8 / 10. I was too stuffed to really enjoy it.



I sleep for a while, watch something that I don’t really remember on the tv, and it’s time for breakfast:



Nothing special, but the OJ!

Getting there…



We land in time and I take a last picture of our plane.
