Sawasdee Bangkok! 🇹🇭 I’ve been to Bangkok several times before but to the big BKK airport when we flew there between 2016-2018. Nowadays we fly twice (soon three times!) daily to Bangkok Don Mueang DMK airport. Crazy to see the golf course in action between the runways. Something I remember from my childhood. It’s a busy place with lots of narrowbodies on the move. In contrast to BKK where it’s mostly big stuff. You are in and out of the airport in no time whereas the walks in BKK could be loooong. We could still clearly see the effects of the torrential rains in the weeks prior. But today it was benign with only a few isolated CB’s in Myanmar 🇲🇲 airspace. #pilot #flydubai #Boeing737 #bangkok #donmueang

I do like getting picked up in a golf buggy to then stay 24 hours in one of the poshest 5 ⭐️ hotels in town. Tivat, Montenegro 🇲🇪, Regent Porto Montenegro 🏨 to be precise. We had a great time exploring the beautiful marina as a crew. As we explored the Porto Montenegro marina our aircraft departed runway 32 on its 5 hour journey back to Dubai. 🇦🇪 Can you spot it? Let me know the picture nbr ⬇️. I did a few Tivat flight this summer 2026 season and this was my only layover there. It was a scheduled layover as well so very privileged to be able to get one and explore. Let’s see what the 2027 summer season brings. 🙏🏼 This place is well worth a visit. And with 4 weekly direct flight to/from Dubai during the core summer season and 2 weekly flights until late October there is no excuse to skip it. 😉 And yes, the colorful tractors were out in full force. #pilot #flydubai #Boeing737 #tivat #boeing737max

This summer 2026 season I managed to operate 6 of our flights into Corfu, Greece 🇬🇷 from Dubai. 🇦🇪 Even sometimes the passengers would recognize me as the same pilot from the week before. 🤣 I love coming here as the scenery is just beautiful. The bridge and spotters hotel are particular highlights. The approach can be tricky if you are given a straight in approach. Often the adjacent ATC sectors would keep you high as summer ✈️ travel in this part of Europe is booming. Other times you get some last minute holding or delay vectors. You can’t really plan other than plan for the ‘worst-case’ scenario which is a straight in approach. Only once have I done the opposite approach for runway 16. It’s an offset RNP approach, right over the harbor at low level. Quite fun to do. Shame the vectors are so long as we approach from the South. The meal on the way back home was yummy. 😋 The shrimps are definitely one of my favorites. ☺️ #pilot #flydubai #boeing737 #boeing737max #corfu

Just passed 13000hrs total time today on the way over to Chisinau, Moldova 🇲🇩 I only just realized that a few weeks ago I also passed 10000 hrs with flydubai of which just over 8000hrs in the left seat. A fun but long day turnaround today. Last time I was here was in January of this year and it was bitterly cold. Not today. A bit breezy but very pleasant. We run 4 weekly flights here. Awesome crew today as well. Two Dutchies 🇳🇱 upfront (@am_es8) and one of our cabin crew who used to work as a Dispatcher for my previous airline back in the day when I just started flying. She later moved to Etihad as cabin crew and now us. It’s a small world. The Emirates 777 is inbound to Dubai from Boston 🇺🇸 and overtook us very slowly 2000ft above. Next up; Almaty, Kazakhstan. 🇰🇿 #pilot #flydubai #Boeing737 #crewlife #dubai

[📸 + 2 x 📹] Tivat, Montenegro 🇲🇪 at sunset. My landing on runway 32 and our sunset departure from runway 14. The wildfires that started 3 days prior creating a dramatic setting. We landed close to our Maximum Landing Weight. Due to the tailwind, temperature and short runway we elected for Flaps 40, Autobrakes 3 and maximum reverse. The brake cooling schedule prescribed a 20 minute cooldown period, more than enough during our 1 hour turnaround. Once we left we had to takeoff from rwy 14 as we were full and heavy. Taking off on ryw 32 meant we had to leave bags or passengers behind. Which, obviously we don’t want to do. So we arranged for rwy 14, traffic permitting. Then a ‘no engine bleed’ takeoff and full 28K Bump thrust was sufficient to take all our passengers and their bags safely to Dubai in around 5 hours. The extra performance the MAX offers over the NG came in very handy today! Video’s at the end. ▶️ Thanks to @aviation_mode_lytv for the videos from the Tower. 🙏🏼☺️ I really hope to be back again in September or October before we conclude our flights here for the this season. It’s beautiful and a fun professional challenge to fly into.

‘Qatari 1F’ blocking our climb to FL360. I did’t mind too much as the view was great. 📸✈️ We were enroute to Corfu, CFU Greece. 🇬🇷 Alongside Mykonos JMK 🇬🇷 and Tivat TIV 🇲🇪 it’s one of my favorite summer destinations we do. It’s a fun and scenic approach. I can definitely see why it’s popular. We took off from runway 16 giving us a great view of all these lovely ✈️ spotting locations Corfu has to offer! We flew back as a passenger, enjoying a very lovely shrimp / pasta meal. Included are two high altitude airport overviews. Can you name them? ⬇️ Hint: the second one is my all time favorite! Next up on Wednesday: Corfu 🇬🇷 again! 🤭👍🏼 #pilot #flydubai #Boeing737 #corfu #boeing

A nightly (Chinese) meeting in Tashkent, Uzbekistan. 🇺🇿 The Chine Eastern A321neo is heading to Xi‘an whilst the Air China 737 MAX 8 was inbound from Urumqi. 🇨🇳 Lots of construction going on meaning you’d have to pay very close attention to where you are going. At the best of times taxiing here is a challenge. It becomes easier over time but for those who haven’t been here a few times you need to have your ears and eyes open and plan well ahead. The ATC instructions were very difficult to understand for the China Eastern crew so ATC resorted to a follow me solution. Problem solved. Love it how the lit up the control tower.
