What was the first plane you have ever flown as passenger ? Since release is near I have just created this topic to keep us occupied and because I was curios.
I have flown for the first time when I was around 1 year old and it was Boeing 737-200 Air Slovakia. Both airline and plane are already gone.
First flight was on a 747 from schiphol to koningin beatrix luchthaven when i was 12. Well technically also when i was 2 but i dont remember much of that flight
My first commercial flight was in an easyJet A319 from Amsterdam to Manchester.
The first plane I flew myself was a Cessna 173 at airport Teuge (NL)
Now I only fly fpv racedrones.
My dad tho has been into widdde range of flights… From Caravans to Private (company) Jets and Fokker 100 to A380s… I think I can say he has been into 25+ core models… of 7/8 Airplane manufacturers altogether. Almost all of modern age models of Boeing And Airbus. His company makes him travel a lot, especially in the last few years.
Best part is he doesn’t know the name of even 1 model… He forgets even if u tell him… (I told him A380 and he doesn’t remember that name)… He has NO interest in Airplanes. I keep a track of his flights tho.
As a passenger, EL-AL 747 (no idea which type, probably 400 1,2 or 3 which has since been phased out) Toronto to Israel direct when I was 4 yrs old. Incredible fun for me running up and down the isles of the huge plane, not so much for my parents.
I always loved flying.
Oh yes, it was a 19 hour flight including time zones, which makes it about 12 hours actual.
My first was a 747-400 from Boston to frankfurt on lufthansa. Don’t remember any of it though since I was <1 year old, but still continue my “pilgrimage” every year!
Can’t remember the first years but there was a lot of flying those years for me as a toddler. The first I can remember is a B767 from Caracas to Santiago, I was 8 y.o. Since then I’ve flown in A320, B787, B737 and some I can’t remember. Not really a frequent traveller yet but hoping to become one very soon
It has probally been a 737-300 to Malaga, but the first i personally remember was a 747 trip from cph to malaga with stop over in zurich to pick pax up.
