    I did the same flight 2 weeks ago. It was amazing and exciting. I nearly cried for happiness and joy !!

    That very same day I went back from Praslin to Victoria but by catamaran. As a result, I won't probably take any other catamaran in my life 😅 I wish I could jump on that plane too even if the flight was obviously bumpy for the weather conditions

      Hahaha, the catamaran was an option that we had, but fortunately we ended up going with the flight. My mom was so terrified from the first one she threatened to cancel the flight back and take the boat instead. You can imagine the horror she felt on this… more exciting flight. How was the catamaran experience though? Can imagine the ride was not the smoothest it could’ve been. Thanks for watching!

      @@GenAvAviation the ride was simply one of my worst nightmares I have ever lived 😅 the boat jumping on the water, oscillating left and right taking very steep angles... I am not a person who gets seasick but I spent 75 minutes with the constant fear to see the boat flip from one moment to another... well excluding the first 2 and the last 5 minutes of the ride 😁

      Thank you for watching! The dates of my flights are always noted in the description, and this one was taken in July 2022 (keeping in mind that is the winter in the Seychelles due to it being in the Southern Hemisphere)
