BALI TO TAIPEI

Welcome aboard this 15 year old AIrbus A330-302. We’ll be cruising at 39,000 feet today as we head out of Bali and Indonesia, over Brunei and tip of Borneo, through the South China Sea continuing over the length of the Philippines, finally finding Taipei past the length of the channel where the Philippine and South China Seas meet.

On the way we will be taking some snaps prioritised of course to the safety of all passengers and the task in hand of flying this good old workhorse on this daily operated route. Quite a few other pilots around the area today and a calm headwind of 16 kts not proving too much hassle for those 2 General Electric CF6 power plants. A full cabin of passengers, mostly Chinese nationals heading home after their travels in Indonesia and 2 honeymooning couples coming back from Bali.

On behalf of myself and the simulated crew today we hope you had a pleasant journey with us today and if you wish to replicate this journey, here is the flight plan as provided by Simbrief via FPLTOIF.

As always, amazing! Just beautiful.


Suggestion, do Seattle to Juneau, it’s a great route. And with your photo style, it would turn out awesome!

As stunning as ever - @Helmethead - keep it up mate.


I recommend Kathmandu (VNKT) to Paro (VQPR) - you can enjoy some beautiful mountainous scenery and try out the famous approach into Paro at the same time.
