good morning guys from pisa i'm just standing on my hotel room balcony the station is right
behind me i'm about to head out to pisa airport taking the people mover which apparently is some
kind of automated driving to the airport type of train thing so come with me for the trip
british airways back to heathrow this afternoon i'll see you when i get there see you for now
The Pisamover has its own platforms at Pisa station and is fully automated. You basically
walk over to it and get a ticket from the machine then it lets you through the barriers.
It’s a driver-less shuttle, cost was 5 euros one way at the time of my visit
and it takes about 8 minutes from the station to the airport.
Then there's a short walk to the terminal building.
Now I was most impressed with the precautions they were taking at Pisa airport to prevent the spread
of coronavirus. At the terminal entrance, everybody had to walk through a machine that sprayed you
with some kind of disinfectant mist. We then had temperature checks before going on to enter security.
If you manage to watch this video to the end (and I really hope you do),
I invite you to compare this with what I say about my arrival experience at Heathrow
and then let me know what you think in the comments below.
My flight back was on this British Airways A321Neo - G-NEOX. I’d actually flown on this
aircraft twice before in the last few months. Today, I would be in economy or Euro Traveller
as BA like to call it. The price of this one way flight was £21.
Because lounges are closed and food in club europe is still very much below par on BA, I personally dont think it’s worth
paying the extra for business at the moment. However, I do understand that improvements are
on the way and services will resume to much closer to normal by the end of January 2021
We took off on runway 22L heading out towards the
Ligurian Sea before turning north. The weather was pretty grim although I did manage a few
views of the coastline through the clouds as we climbed to a cruising altitude of 36000 ft.
I was in seat 10A today, just behind business. Here’s a quick view of the free snacks on board
in economy for you which is basically some water and a packet of biscuits. It is better than
nothing though, especially with the absence of british airways buy on board at the time of this flight.
The table, seat and floor area were clean and fresh
as I expected with British airways to be honest. Service was the usual efficient standard - so absolutely
no negatives from me and a big thumbs up overall.
Flight time today was 1 hour 58 minutes covering a total distance of 737 miles interestingly
Landing was to the west at Heathrow on runway 27L with a nice quick taxi round to terminal 5.
okay guys just got into heathrow and yet again nobody checked any of our
locator form details that is the fourth time in a row i've landed back in the uk
in probably in the last couple of months and nobody's about to check contrast that with
what happened when i went out to italy three days ago and they wonder why it's still an issue crazy
anyway hope you enjoyed the flight and the footage if you haven't subscribed already please i
would really appreciate it if you could just click that button up there and until the next time guys
thanks very much for watching really appreciate it and i'll see you again soon cheers for now
