Plane Spotting

28-Oct-2017 • San Francisco, California United States

It was last Sunday when Marc and I went plane spotting. We had been planning to do so for a long time but we kept procrastinating. Anyway, we finally got the energy to do it and were we happy we did. The idea first popped up last summer when we had to meet my cousin at the Airport Hilton and we saw this spot by the Airport Marriott where many people gathered to plane spot.

Was it an experience!

Here's the Air China plane right before it took off.

I was quite surprised at how lovely the Airport Marriott was. It was far from San Francisco's downtown but it was a nice hotel just the same. I did see a shuttle and I suppose it took hotel guests to the airport regularly. The guests then can take the BART from SFO International should they want to go to San Francisco.

I was surprised to see planes arrive just within minutes of each other. I saw the usual airlines like United, Virgin, KLM, Air China, and more. I did see new ones like Thomas Cook which I know is a travel agency but never an airline.
