Faroe Islands to Copenhagen Flight Experience – Atlantic Airways A320

May 1, 2024

Today’s video is all about North Atlantic flying vibes: flying from Vagar in the Faroe Islands to Copenhagen aboard an Atlantic Airways A320.

Departing Vagar you’re most likely going to be flying Atlantic Airways to one of its European destinations, or on its New York flight which is coming back this year again for a limited time starting in September. Atlantic’s destinations include Edinburgh, Reykjavik, Paris, Billund, Oslo and of course Copenhagen. Not all of these are daily. This is a pretty small airline. Though you can also catch SAS from here to Copenhagen, and Wideroe even has a flight to Bergen on the Q400. I’ve heard that back in the day this could be a very gnarly airport to operate into. These days it’s still subject to the famously tricky Faroese weather which can mean low visibility, storms and rapidly changing conditions, but now with a longer runway and an ILS approach things are usually a bit more straightforward. If you’ve flown Atlantic Airways, be sure to let us know what your experiences were like in the comments.

Our crazy planespotting mission in Tokyo

While we were in Tokyo recently we wanted to find the most exciting way to go planespotting around Tokyo Haneda Airport (HND) — and we found it! Instead of sticking to the usual spots, we took a water taxi out onto Tokyo Bay to get up close to the runways.

3 hours (transatlantic!) in the Dash 8 cockpit

We’re going transatlantic on the workhorse Dash 8-200 with Air Greenland – flying from the brand new Nuuk International Airport in Greenland to Reykjavik’s Keflavik Airport in Iceland (KEF). And we’re sitting in the jumpseat which means we have 3 hours on this very-long-haul-for-a-turboprop over the ice cap and remote east Greenland plus the Atlantic Ocean.

Flying the A340 from Antarctica to Africa!

It’s time to leave Antarctica and head home after 8 incredible days on the 7th continent with White Desert. That means we’re greeting the inbound A340-300 (operated by Hi-Fly) as it lands at Wolf’s Fang Runway on a beautiful bluebird day with almost no wind. Then it’s time to climb onboard and make the 5.5 hour trek back to South Africa.
