Boeing 737-8200 (MAX) Flight Report | London Gatwick to Dublin 24/09/2025

Welcome back to another video. After seeing some good Ryanair flight deals, I just had to jump on it! On the 24th of September, I decided to head to Dublin for some plane spotting. Here is the flight report for the journey to Dublin. For people wondering, here is how I found the flight and some details about it!

This video starts at Gate 5 at Gatwick Airport. Our flight arrived a few minutes behind schedule as extra fuel was needed just in case there were any delays on the arrival into Gatwick. Fortunately, the seat next to me was empty. Once boarding was complete, we had to wait a few extra minutes due to some congestion. This meant we departed 35 minutes behind schedule. Taxiing time was around 10 minutes or so, the normal for Gatwick. After a powerful takeoff, we made a left over Blindley Heath, fly over Redhill Aerodrome before we continued to climb to our cruising altitude of 30,000 feet (FL300). Our routing towards a North Westerly direction, we flew just to the left of Farnborough Airport, the right of Reading and to the left of Newport, Wales before we started our descent just after the Welsh Coastline. All in all, it was a very pleasant flight!

My thoughts of the Boeing 737 MAX are positive. The seats are more comfortable, slightly more spacious and the acceleration on it is rapid!
