Wow thanks! I thought I posted it correct. But I've edited the 777 first, then the A330. So I posted it wrong! Sorry!

Thankyou!
I really Enjoyed the flights, it were night flights. (I'm not a sleeper). But the service was continuous. So I had enough Coca Cola and In flight entertainment. So that was nice.

Yes, To Dubai there are 2 flights with A330. and 1 with T7. Glad I've finally flown a T7!

Thanks for all the replies guys! I appreciate that.

Happy new years eve!

Happy new year all!
Just edited another one..

28. Amongst KLM.. Will they be in Skyteam before it's all over for JAL?.. If Not.. This one is probably the last picture I've taken of a JAL 777.
