I would love to get to try the whole jet experience, but I am not interested in doing it regularly.

I came as close as you can while flying normally during the start of the pandemic.

I am an IT guy and was tasked with flying to one of the company owner’s country retreats with a new computer and set it up to be ready for the summer…

I get to the airport, the main airport of Sweden, Arlanda, at 07:45 on a normal weekday.

Attached is a photo of what the check in hall looked like…

Anyway, I get checked in and get to my gate, there are a few others there, my flight is called, I walk down and board the transfer bus, and the doors close behind me…

I am the only one on the bus!

I get to the aircraft, a Fokker F50, no company markings at all…

A cute flight attendant welcome me onboard saying that I can pick any seat as I am the only passenger…

And we fly away, it was super weird yet really cool.
