[Switzerland trip with kids🇨🇭①] 6/29-7/5
✈️Airplane Edition✈️
[Itinerary]
June 29th Haneda ✈︎ Heathrow JL41
June 29th Heathrow ✈︎ Zurich BA712
First, I traveled from Haneda to London on a late-night JAL flight.
The flight time was approximately 14 hours⏰
Because this London flight departed late at night, meals were only served once, approximately 8 hours after takeoff, to ensure passengers' sleep.🍴
For this reason, all passengers were provided with a lounge before boarding, and they ate there...⭐️
In-flight meals are nice, but being able to eat a meal like this before boarding, brush my teeth, and then just go to sleep was so convenient, even for those traveling with children.😪💤
In the lounge, we enjoyed JAL's special beef curry.🍛
Of course, we also had some alcohol.🍷
Feeling a little tipsy, we got ready for bed and headed on board.✈️
After boarding, it got dark quickly, so we went to bed right away.🛌
The plane arrived around 6:30 AM London time.🛬
The JAL flight arrived at Terminal 2.
My connecting flight was in Terminal 5, so I took a shuttle bus 🚌 (about 15 minutes).
The gate for my flight to Zurich was only decided an hour before departure, so I spent the time wandering around the gate.
I had to take the monorail to get to my gate for Zurich, and even though I found out my gate an hour before departure, it was a bit hectic. 💦
And we departed safely and on time. 🛫
BA715's aircraft was a narrow-body A320. 💺
It was a 3-3 configuration, and luckily there was an empty seat next to me, so I was able to relax. ⭐️
After arriving in Zurich, the arrivals lobby was quite a distance away.
I think it was about a 15-minute walk. ☁️☁️
However, immigration was smooth (since the UK is not in the Schengen zone, we entered through Switzerland. 🇨🇭)
On our way to today's destination. 🚃
🚃Transportation Information🚌
Also, because I wanted to make train travel smoother on this trip, I purchased a 6-day Swiss Travel Pass, even though it's more expensive than a Half Pass. 🎟️
It was so convenient not having to buy tickets every time. ⭐️
