  • KUALA LUMPUR – MALAYSIA (#2)

    10/4/25 En-route to Pakistan, my flight itinerary had left me with a fabulous morning layover in the Malaysian capital – enough time to head out into the city for a wander, and plenty of opportunity to fill up on food! My Batik Airways flight landed on-time in KL at a touch after 5am – and

  • TIRANA – ALBANIA

    18/12/24 – 20/12/24 By the time we landed in Tirana, after our long travel day, it was already close to midnight! Luckily, we were off the plane quickly, and Albania’s e-Gate system made for fast passage through passport control – our next step was to find the Luna bus, which operates between the airport and

Sarajevo Airport isn’t too far away from the city, and there are apparently two bus routes – one which is a private bus from the airport to the city, and

  • NOVI SAD – SERBIA

    12/12/24 We had decided before arriving in Serbia to take a day trip to Novi Sad, Serbia’s second-largest city, and capital of the autonomous Vojvodina region. After departing from Belgrade’s brand-new (and unfinished) railway station, on the fast, comfortable, double-deck SOKO train, we found ourselves quickly trundling through the Serbian countryside en-route to Novi Sad.

  • BELGRADE – SERBIA

    11/12/24 – 14/12/24 It is a short flight between Bucharest and Belgrade, on an AirSerbia ATR72, however a delay at the airport meant we were slightly later arriving in Belgrade than planned! There are a few options for getting to the city centre from the airport in Belgrade – the A1 minibus, or the 600
