Chicago again

I am back from Europe and on my way to Chicago for just one night. The weather in Dallas has been very rainy with lots of water all over the map. This has also hurt construction work in the area as everything is just extremely wet.

Finnair uses same terminal as American Airlines

Very convenient to transfer to the American Airlines gate.... Just the security controls are between.... This 767 has the new full bed seats... sweet...

Return to Dallas via Zurich

It is early Sunday and I am on my way back to Dallas via Zurich. The good news is that I have been upgraded to business so the flight will be more pleasant than in the coach class.

Summer is in Helsinki

I love Helsinki by summer and the fact that it is light late in the evening already now and the lighter it will become until it starts to go the other way in mid June. Last night, a thick fog hit the downtown Helsinki which was very spooky....

On my way to Finland through Zurich

I am on the plane again, this time to Finland. They have upgraded the seats in business class, which is perfect! This plane has been outdated for a while so this type of upgrade is mostly welcome.

Dallas in the spring... It has been odd weather

I was lucky of taking the earlier flight as we have again huge thunderstorm and rain in Dallas... Hail, wind and lightening...

Chicago is hot

It is very interesting to note that Chicago, Illinois is as hot as Dallas this time of the year.... I am returning from Chicago and sitting on a MD-80 sweating like a pig.... O'Hare is a good place to return from as it is a major hub for American, and I was able to get an earlier flight.... Very cool... Getting home earlier than what I would have otherwise.

Chicago on my mind - May 2007

The spring in Dallas in in full swing. We had a Finnish golf tournament in Dallas on Saturday, with a beautiful green nature.

This morning, I am on my way to Chicago for a couple of days. I hope I will have a better luck this time than the previous when I had to stay for one additional night due to the weather.
