Day 1 - Flying Sydney to Mallorca

Mallorca and Menorca 2022

This trip has been cancelled three times but we are at last departing on our first trip overseas since 2019 because of the covid pandemic disruption. It looks like we will be the early scouts for all of our friends. We are pretty happy with the covid numbers in Spain so fingers crossed.

Mallorca is the Spanish spelling of Majorca.  Since we are going to Spain we thought we’d use the Spanish spelling. Either way the pronunciation is the same.

Michael very kindly drove us to the airport which saved us having to schlep our bags on and off the train at Central and the airport. 

Emirates wanted us here 4 hrs before departure. Security was not at all busy. It took 1hr from when gate opened to get to the gate but we were pretty close to the front and we did online check in. Ron got a random drug check and I was scanned. Depart at 9pm for Dubai.
