The excitement of flying again – a photo blog

Last week, I went on my first flights since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. It was the best feeling to be back on a plane after 17 months! I flew with British Airways for my trip to Edinburgh, out of London City Airport, and then returning back into London Heathrow Airport.

This was my first time flying from City Airport and the unique route out of London definitely makes for some great shots of the O2 arena and the city!
