Flying is more than just transport – it is an experience that transcends our everyday boundaries. Soar through the air, glide above the clouds and see the world from a unique perspective. Whether in a passenger aircraft, a private jet or on an ALPEN AIR flight around the Alps, the magic of flying remains a timeless phenomenon.

Did you know that the low temperatures in the aircraft cabin are not just a natural phenomenon? Air circulation and temperature regulation are crucial. Airlines deliberately keep the temperature low to compensate for individual body temperature fluctuations. Behind the scenes, the crew works hard to find the best balance between comfort and well-being.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

2 Mysterious landing: Why are the lights dimmed before landing?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Dimming the lights before landing is not just an atmospheric effect. It has a serious purpose: to acclimatise our eyes to the external lighting conditions. This makes it easier to recognise what is going on outside, which is necessary for landing.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

3 Air quality in the aircraft: what is the air really like?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The air quality in aeroplanes is often underestimated. In reality, the air in the cabin is completely exchanged several times an hour and cleaned by special filters. This ensures that passengers always breathe fresh and clean air.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The choice of seat on an aeroplane has more influence than you might think. Passengers in a window seat not only have a better view, but also more privacy. ALPEN AIR offers an aircraft with 4 seats, which are both window seats and aisle seats. This well thought-out seating arrangement emphasises first-class travel comfort, and every journey with ALPEN AIR becomes an unforgettable experience.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Pilots and flight attendants take breaks on long-haul flights to cope with the strain. The sleeping area above or below the cockpit offers limited space with one or two beds. Take the opportunity to experience the flight from a unique perspective! Book the co-pilot’s seat when available, sit next to the pilot and immerse yourself in the fascination of flying with ALPEN AIR.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

6 Mysteries of turbulence: Not as dangerous as it seems<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Turbulence may be frightening, but it is usually harmless. Pilots avoid them by using modern technologies and experienced flight routes. These turbulences have meteorological causes and nothing bad usually happens. It only becomes dangerous if passengers are not wearing their seatbelts during turbulence.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

7 The secret of the engine: paraffin consumption and service life<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Engines are the heart of an aeroplane. Fascinatingly, an aircraft consumes as much paraffin on take-off as it does during the rest of the flight. The service life of an engine can be significantly extended through careful maintenance and state-of-the-art technology.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

8 Boarding tactics: Why passengers should not board immediately<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The way passengers board has a direct impact on the timetable. Research has shown that delayed boarding, where passengers board in different rows one after the other, is more efficient than the traditional “every man for himself” principle.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Did you know that flying is the second safest mode of transport, only just behind rail travel? This impressive safety is no coincidence, but the result of rigorous safety standards, the most advanced technologies and intensive training for flight personnel.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The equalisation of pressure during descent not only affects the ears, but can also affect the taste. Food and drinks may taste different in the aircraft cabin with lower air pressure than on the ground. But don’t worry, the flight attendants are prepared to make this process a smooth one.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
