Hi Mark,

Over the years I have been on flights which have landed in both directions. If you have a window seat you will get some stunning views which you will tell your friends about & make them envious. Once the wheels touch down its YIPEE!!! we are here. Enjoy your holiday.

Yammas, Colin.

Corfu landings are quite good, if you have flown into Hongkong before the new airport was built, that was an experience, we flew in between sky -s**********er buildings almost near enough to take the washing off the balconies, or watch the people eating breakfast. It was very interesting (for want of a better word) One of the worst things for me is the take off from Leeds/Bradford, but I enjoy flying it's part of my holiday.

Enjoy your holiday

Now there is a flying experience that brings back memories of many kinds. Flying into the old Kaitak Airport, Hongkong, on a Cathay Pacific 747, as said above, between the high rise buildings, waving at people on balconies. You should also hear the breaks come on as soon as it hits the runway. An experience for sure.

Another airport which is slightly traumatic to land on, is at Gibraltar, both ends lead out into water, so it makes no difference which way you are coming in, or going out. You fly in over water, and take off over water. Again, it is to stop as quick as you can.

So Corfu Airport, minor detail compared to some around the world.

Yeia mas, Chris.

Hey I love landing at Corfu airport - Its no where near as scary as landing at Athens where you might be forgiven for thinkig the pilot was trying to land you on one one of the hotel roofs ! - Sometimes you get fantastic views of mouse island - and before that great views of the island itself - the U turn over the South tip of the island is not too scary and you get views over Parga and Sivota on the mainland - worst bit is when those brakes go on and boy do they go on hard ! but once you are off the plane just take in the rolling hills and wonderful warm air - AHHH you are here at last !!

Our first view of Nissaki's new harbour was from the air! Definetely a treat landing in the day! It makes you wish you were staying for good!

Skiathos is worse as you hit the run way and they slam on the brakes. Also they can't refuel there as the runway is to short for the plane to take of fully loaded with passengers and fuel.

Corfu ain't that bad realy other than the hole in the runway which if you hit it sends you back up in the air.

Thanks for your concern, Alisos, but too late! Anything to do with flying I just have to read (it's the massachistic tendancies in me!)

Linda (Bolton) - Why didn't you just say "No" ? I was beginning to think you were my friend!

I have flown into Corfu now at least 6 times and maybe that is the way they have always done it and I think I will just keep topping up on the poison! What I don't know will not hurt me, I guess! (unless I read it on here from trusted friends!!!)
