Tokio for less than 6 hours
What sounds like a crazy idea was my best errorfare trip ever. In Summer 2012 I saw a crazy errorfare with Alitalia from Bari via Rome to Tokio and back to MXP for 80,- Euro.
The disadvantage was that I would have only 6 hours in NRT until my returnflight but I couldn’t resist. Several weeks prior departure I booked my proceeding flight to Bari and my returnflight from Malpensa to Hannover via Germanwings. In this part I will only report about the trip to Narita, but a report about MXP and Bari will follow.

After spending the night at Bari Airport because I was to stingy to spent 120,- Euro for a bad hotel, I war ready for my flight on AZ via FCO to NRT.
BRI-FCO A319-100 EI-IMG Flighttime: 0:50h
That was a short and smoth flight to Rome but the aircraft was full. Service was good, some coffee not more.

FCO-NRT B777-200 EI-ISB Flighttime: 11:30h
As the Aircraft arrived it was late due to a dalyed departure in JFK. It looks a bit shabby so I guess she received a new paintsheme shortly after this trip. As I found my seat I saw that the seats weren’t cleaned propperly. It was nothing serious but I think if you have to spend 10+ hours you will prefer a propper cleaned aircraft! After boarding was completed I recordnize that my row kept free so I would have the complete row for myself fort he next 11:30 Hours.
Aprox 1,5 hours after departure the meal service came, I choose lasagne which was just perfect. So far my beast inflight meal until now! I watched several movies and tried to sleep for a few hours. I woke up as the sun came up which was beautifull.

After arrival I went straight to the checkin desk fort he return flight. It was very easy but I learned that my returnflight will be fully booked. I went to the Terminal 1 observation deck were I spent aprox 2,5 Hours.
Prior returning tot he boarding area I went tot he other observation deck on Terminal 2 for aprox 30 minutes.
