LisbonJet's Travels: March 2026

Wonderful sunset in Frankfurt

Copenhagen & Frankfurt, October 2015

This crew pairing comprised one night in Copenhagen and two nights in Frankfurt. Although Copenhagen is one of my favorite cities in Europe, I spent most of the time of this quick night stop sleeping.

Copenhagen

This was the view of my room:

The Copenhagen Airport used to have very interesting traffic. Here, the ATR 72-500 of Alsie Express, an airline that links Copenhagen to Sønderborg:

... Copenhagen, dominion of SAS...

... and this rare Boeing 717 of Blue 1:

Frankfurt

The day at Frankfurt was very well spent including this visit to the Bethmann Park which features this Chinesischer Garten:

At the end of the day, we went to our hotel's rooftop (which sadly closed recently due to the insolvency of the Revo Hospitality Group). On the rooftop, we witness a wonderful sunset...

Lisboa

Next day, arriving at Lisbon, we parked side by side with this Maltese Boeing 737-400 (9H-VLA) of Valorfly. This airline is not active anymore.

It's always nice to have a few minutes of a turnaround to check the traffic at Frankfurt Airport. This was my first time seeing the new centennial livery of Lufthansa, in this case, painted on a Dreamliner. The old Boeing 747-400 is also an eye candy.

What's amazing on this Lufthansa commemorative livery is that the aircraft wings are actually also the wings of the crane painted on the fuselage, since the upper surface of the wings is also painted in white. This feature is easily visible when you are able to see the aircraft from a higher level.
