The national company TAP operate only some flights to Lisbon, all the other traffic is charter from all the rest of Europe and Russia (like Thomson Fly, Thomas-Cook, My Travel, Monarch, Transavia, Martinair, Norwegian...

In the end of the summer, my Faro’s trip begin at Charleroi Airport aboard the Ryanair flight in the early morning. After about 3 hours in the sky, I arrived for 5 days, full of spotting and visits. I took pictures at the taxi runway 28 from the sunrise till eleven. Then, I went on the south of the airport to take the pictures of all the traffic. During the day, the wind changed every days, and runway 10 were in service till the sunset.
