I posted on Twitter recently what flights or aircraft you'd like to see me fly on and a few replies were these Air Baltic A220's ex. (Bombardier CS-300). So without much hesitation I put a plan together which involved flying with Wizz out to Riga and picking up one of these beauties back to the UK.
This was filmed onboard 1 of 3 Air Baltic special liveries, this was the "Estonian Flag" livery, registration YL-CSJ. With a modern interior, good mood lighting and a nice 2 + 3 configuration I was pleasantly surprised. Seat 5A offered the perfect engine view and with no-one next to me allowed me to spread out a bit. You'll notice how incredibly quiet it is, even during take off really quiet! Once up and out of grey Riga and above the clouds we climbed to 40,000ft. I managed to have a little walk around the cabin and get a look out the window of a few empty rows further down the aircraft as it wasn't a full flight.
Once over the Dutch coastline we began our descent across the North Sea into Gatwick. Some beautiful views of the Thames estuary and the South Coast of Britain during the descent and the lighting was pretty good at this point as well. No holding today into Gatwick and we joined the approach straight away for RWY26L, arriving right on schedule.
