Back in France

Uneventful flight. I do not really enjoy such late departures. The service which normally includes an enjoyable aperitif time followed by a meal is combined into one so that people have a maximum time to rest. That is the theory of course.

I managed my 2 large whisky glasses and a fairly nice dinner. I watched almost 3 films before I could get some sleep. It was not a sound sleep but I did shut my eyes. There was a bit of turbulence here and there but that does not bother me. I would even stay quite on the contrary.

I woke up when passing over Rome

The rest of the flight goes pretty fast. Breakfast is served, I change into warmer clothes and soon after that we touch down in very thick fog before 8am.

The airport is full of people, fortunately we can use our priority passes to jump a bit of the security queues. The electronic EU passport makes it very easy to go through border control. No need to talk to anyone.

It is quite a long way to our next terminal but we have plenty of time i.e more than 4 hours before our next flight. The Air France lounge in Hall 2F is very welcoming.

Too early in the day for a whisky 🥃 I think

Moved to a quiet and peaceful part of the lounge.
