[@jambon7681]

Nice to see an approach into the UK bathed in sunshine, not often you see that😄. Skiathos Airport looks a bit like Reus Airport in Spain, although I've never been bussed to the plane at Reus. Looks like a nice flight. TUI UK just seem that bit more grown up and less brash and tacky compared to their rival Jet2. Each to their own though, as people seem to love Jet2. Nice video, I enjoyed it.

[@OnBoardHD]

Actually, next Saturday's video will be Jet2! It will be from an airport we didn't visit for the last 2 years (Birmingham) to a completely new destination in the channel: Santorini! 😎✈

[@khodirkhodirAlHalim]

شكرا جزيلا لكم Thank you very much for this video

[@OnBoardHD]

Glad that you've enjoyed it! :)

[@albertusdrostable]

Very, very well done again! The background at Skaithos airport is as dramatic as Kloten airport! I might have said it before, but those Greek islands make for amazing views! Thanks! By the way; did you spend any time at Skaithos, or was this just another stopover in your enless journeys? ;-)

[@OnBoardHD]

Thanks a lot, Albertus ;)
It was a stopover in an enless journey haha
Soon I'll upload the flight to Skiathos with its amazing approach!
Enjoy the week! :)

[@Hassell163]

Me ha encantado el vídeo sobre todo el despegue del Aeropuerto de Skiathos ha sido increíble en esa pista tanto en el despegue como en el aterrizaje los pilotos deben apurar los motores me imagino y también esas vistas del mar y los sitios por donde pasas ; el avión me ha gustado también tanto el Skye interior como el tipo B-737 me parece mas vistoso que el A-320 me parecen los asientos muy cómodos no como los de Vueling que son duros y parecen de plástico. Un cordial saludo y buen fin de semana.

[@OnBoardHD]

Muchas gracias, Rafa!
Si este te ha gustado, creo que el vídeo volando a Skiathos te va a gustar aún más. La aproximación es genial! :)
Que tengas una buena semana! :)

Man, you've missed some of the best years, pre-covid, of Skiathos planespotting and people getting jet-blasted..With TUI's 757s screaming, TCX A321s and Volotea's 717s from all over Italy it was a hoot..!! You should have come earlier...Did you do any spotting? Wed and Fri are Brit days and Sat is Scandic day with lots of SAS 737s..You also get Finnair, Transavia, Smartwings,LOT, Tarom,Air Serbia,Enter Air, Austrian,BA, Ryanair, Edelweiss,Neos, Cyprus, TUS..

[@OnBoardHD]

Planes will come back to Skiathos, don't worry for that. (Of course not the Volotea B717... but others )
I was there just for a cople of hours.

[@Estraying]

I will be flying with Tui next year to Lanzarote on the A321 ( never knew they had an airbus )

[@OnBoardHD]

Wish you an amazing trip! :)

[@RoadCone411]

That is a very short runway (5,340 feet) but not as short as Key West, FL (5,076 feet)- EYW regularly sees flights to New York and Boston, some 1200miles/1930km and 1370miles/2200km away, respectively. I’m sure there must be capacity lids on some of these departing flights.

[@OnBoardHD]

That must be an interesting airport to visit! :)

[@RoadCone411]

@@OnBoardHD It's a beautiful area, to be honest. A bit like Florida, a bit like a Caribbean island (which I guess it is, technically.) As much as I like flying, the drive back to Miami from Key West is great! Lots of bridges connecting small islands all the way back to the mainland! I would like to visit Skiathos in the near future...thank you for inspiring me!

[@olliewatts9478]

How full was the flight? Usually a 737-800 has to refuel at Thessaloniki back to the UK etc as it can’t get off the runway to go direct.

[@OnBoardHD]

Around 40 people maximum I would say.

[@olliewatts9478]

@@OnBoardHD Ah ok makes sense why they could do it direct!!

[@Carol.Allison]

That's one thing I hate is leaving these beautiful Greek Islands

[@gerardorchardg]

Felicitaciones Lucas, gran video. Hey Lucas vi el vídeo tanto de ida a Skiathos como el de la vuelta y en ambos ponías que la pista es muy corta. Pregunto ¿Hay una sugerencia por parte de la compañía, fabricante del avión, el largo de la pista tanto para aterrizar como para despegar? y ¿Qué tanto se puede transgredir esa norma de la compañía?. Un abrazo desde Santiago de chile, América del Sur

[@OnBoardHD]

Muchas gracias.
El fabricante del avión, para certificarlo, tiene que hacer cientos de pruebas, entre los cuales se calculan esas distancias. Luego, se le aplican factores de seguridad y sacan la distancia mínima en función del peso, condiciones meteorológicas, elevación del aeropuerto... La aerolínea puede aplicar más factores de seguridad, es decir, hacer la distancia mínima más larga, pero NUNCA hacerla más corta de lo que Boeing dice.
"¿Qué tanto se puede transgredir esa norma...?" Nada. 0 metros.
Saludos! :)

Has being named the Princess Juilianna airport of the Mediteranien.

[@OnBoardHD]

2 horas de escala no dan para ello.

[@joe755]

En las pantallas ponía que el viaje duraba 1 hora escasa, debe ser un error

[@OnBoardHD]

No es un error. Hay 2 horas de diferencia entre Reino Unido y Grecia. El vuelo dura tres horas, pero llegas sólo una hora más tarde por el cambio horario.

The plane was pretty empty. I already noticed that when you were boarding as the second person.
I like the look of those small Greek airport terminals. Although I prefer the Mega terminals, because I hate the long sitting and waiting for boarding, and always like to walk to see more planes and stuff.

[@OnBoardHD]

Yep, there were just around 40 passengers in this flight.
In some weeks I will upload the flight to Skiathos with its amazing approach :)

[@alessandroiacovone414]

Beautiful flight and beautiful report as usual.
Skiathos Is also called "European Sint Maarten" because of the very low short final and because of the backtrack before take off.
