Departing Fortaleza Airport in an unusual direction. Due to rare Northern winds, runway 31 was in use for takeoff. Video starts with a short sequence of pushback and engine start, then takeoff with a view of the main terminal building and the large sea of city lights of the Southwestern area of Fortaleza before turning into Northeastern direction leaving the continent towards Europe. Recorded with my iPhone.
In terms of Economy class, the window seats in row 31 are the best one you can choose as the row in front of it has empty space between the middle seat and the emergency exit, but you still have a window (which is often missing in bulkhead rows). The extra leg room also has a comparably a good value at around 50 USD (you already pay around 30 USD for standard window seat reservation!).
