Your first trip on a plane and your most recent one?

My first flight was in 1969 to Bordeaux for a school exchange visit. I remember some turbulence and lightning around the plane which scared me a bit but I tried not to show it in front of my friends. My parents were envious as they had never been on a plane.
My most recent was to Edinburgh in November 2018 for a city break with my DH.

Yes nanna8, I think I flew the same way and the year before from Lydd - a grass runway - in a DC3 propeller driven aircraft to Beauvais - a tarmac runway. The flight was organised by AISEC, a student group, and we had a week in Paris visiting banks and factories in the mornings with some amazing lunches for the rest of the afternoon.

First flight in 1965 to Benedorm which then was a little village with a few hotels. Last flight 2 years ago back to UK from New Zealand through Hong Kong as NZ and the world shut down.

I had never flown at all until my girls were21 and 18 and we had a family holiday to Toronto, bit of a baptism of fire! Have since flown to Chicago, west coast of Canada, Spain, Greece, Denmark (all the usual!) However during lockdown my passport ran out - and I let it! I no longer have a husband to travel with and am quite happy In the UK at present.

My first flight at the age of 11 in 1960 was in a Fox Moth biplane from Southport beach.Cost 10 bob.My latest flight was Ryanair Tenerife to Bournemouth 4 weeks ago.Not nearly as exciting.

My first flight was The Shuttle from Edinburgh to Heathrow in about 1977. I flew down to meet my then Husband coming in from Dubai. Unfortunately he missed his flight home and after waiting around in Heathrow for hours I had to come back home without him.

My first trip was aged 11 to Belgium on holiday with my parents.
The last was 15 years ago with DD and her husband to be, to Spain.
We did a few to France, Spain and Italy when the children were young and they often joined us as students.
I've never done long haul but DH has he had to with his job.

First flight was as an unaccompanied minor from Abbotsinch Airport in Renfrew to Dublin to stay with my grandparents. I was eight or nine. The most recent one was from
Edinburgh to Rome on Sunday past.

My first flight required us having to be weighed before boarding because it was a tiny plane. I remember vividly having to step on the luggage scales, so humiliating aged 14.
My most recent flight was to Jersey, I could see the entire island from above.

First flight 1967 to Guernsey with dh and friends for a holiday. Last flight 2020, holiday in Oz cut short due to pandemic, my original flight home was cancelled and I managed to get on one of the last flights out of Perth on Thai airlines, before they suspended all international flights! Got home day before lockdown, two years today! Now waiting for my visa to go there again ASAP!

My first, and only, flight was back in the early '80s. I got out at 2,500 ft as I didn't like it...

Honestly... OK, so I had a parachute strapped to my back as I did a jump for charity.

As I tend to rarely take holidays and only in the UK, I've never had occasion to go on a plane since.

First flight, 1968, Heathrow to Guernsey and back.

Last flight, 2019, Budapest to Heathrow.

Have done two complete circuits of the globe. Most memorable flight was a seaplane flying out to and landing on the Great Barrier Reef.

First was to Benidorm 1989 on Monarch Airways. Last was Havana return to Gatwick via Madrid for a Carribean cruise 2019.

My first was to Austria Innsbruck in 1965 for a skiing trip
Last one 2020 to Gibraltar to visit my son and family.

First one to Athens, last one just before lockdown to Johannesburg with cabin crew daughter as a “cling on” Klingon?

My first time in a plane was in about 1984-ish so I’d have been 22-23. It was in a Cessna that flew us around Lands End for an hour. Big contrast to my second flight which was in a jumbo jet, but the time in the air was about the same.

My most recent flight was back from Spain in Spring 2019. The weather when we left was appalling. Torrential rain and thunder made for an exciting drive to the airport.
We got off the plane in Scotland to a heatwave!

First flight was Heathrow to Le Bourget in April 1956, when I was nearly twelve. We stayed at the Hôtel Richmond in the Rue du Helder, just near the Opéra.

My last was in April 2015, from Munich to Heathrow, after a whistle-stop tour starting in Leipzig and taking in stays there and in Weimar, Kronach and Regensburg. The most memorable thing about the flight home was the map of our route on the screen on the back of the screen in front of me, which clearly placed Stansted Airport in North Kent. Good old Lufthansa!

Since then it's been Eurostar.

My first flight was aged 26 for a holiday in Corfu - it was also my elder 2 children’s first flight.

My last flight was in March 2019 into Heathrow from Thailand.

Most memorable flight was coming into Bristol on the first flight of the day from Tenerife on October 12, 2018 during storm Callum. The first approach was aborted at the last second. The plane circled and then came in at right angles to the runway only turning in the last couple of seconds before landing. All flights thereafter were diverted and we made the national news. Clip is on YouTube.

NOT Tenerife. It was from the Dominican Republic

My first was as a child, flying to Zambia to Kenya from a tiny airport which had Nissan huts. The 'wallpaper' on the walls of the aeroplane were light beige and rough. I remembered being given a sweet to relieve air pressure on the ears.

My most recent one was from New Zealand to the Netherlands before before COVID hit.

I hope to travel in mid to end May to meet up with a cruise ship in Boston or Montreal.

1964 to visit relatives. I was very young but remember it well as the "air hostesses" (as they were then called) came round with a large bowl of sweets. I couldn't decide which to choose so they gave me a handful. Excellent!

I think I beat most of you with my first. It was 1949 when I was three months old coming home from India. My DM had a cutting from a daily newspaper showing my dad coming down the steps with me in his arms. I don’t know why, as although he was a business man I don’t think he was that important. Sadly he died when I was very young, I would have loved that cutting but after her death we couldn’t find it.
Apparently I was horribly sick on the flight and I blame my fear of flying on that.
Our last flight was three years ago, with the grandchildren, to Lanzarote.

First flight was to Majorca in 1974, our two boys aged 8 and 6 were so excited and we escaped a summer of unrelenting rain for two weeks. Last flight was six years ago to Florida, we were due to fly to California in May of 2020 but that was cancelled because of Covid. Now that DH has a few health problems I doubt if we will fly transatlantic again.

My first flight was with my older sister, when I was 14, in 1961, in a Dakota from Southampton to Jersey. My most recent was last October, with my daughter, from Gatwick to Malaga, to see my sister in Estepona. Both wonderful holidays and very memorable. ?

First one was New York in 1977. British Caledonian. How smart were those tartan outfits. Last one was Brussels. I hate flying. UK hols for me for the foreseeable. Pity as all my family live in the USA
