Tokyo Haneda Airport (HND) is one of the busiest and most efficient airports in the world. Located on the edge of Tokyo Bay, it offers striking views of city lights and Mount Fuji, serving as both a gateway and a farewell to Japan.

Personal Bond
Haneda holds a special place in my story. It’s where so many of my journeys began, working as a cabin crew member in Japan. While those days are behind me, I still know the airport like the back of my hand, the terminals, the gates, the rhythm of departures. It’s more than a memory; it’s a part of my internal map.

Located just southeast of London, Biggin Hill Airport (BQH) carries a legacy of British aviation history, from Spitfires to private jets. Once a critical RAF base in WWII, today it serves as a gateway to the capital for aviators and enthusiasts alike.

Personal Bond
Biggin Hill is where I fly the Piper PA-28 in London. Every takeoff here feels like a personal milestone, a quiet nod to the long line of aviators who’ve flown from this same airspace. The airport still carries that legacy in its air. Seeing a Spitfire taxi past or rise into the sky is a reminder of Biggin Hill's past.

Located in the heart of the French Alps, Annecy Mont-Blanc Airport (NCY) offers some of the most scenic flying in Europe. Nestled between mountains and lake, its routes are as breathtaking as they are technical, a destination for pilots who love the landscape as much as the journey. This design features the airport’s visual approach chart, with the NCY IATA code as a bold typographic element, an homage to terrain, training, and personal takeoffs.

Personal Bond
Annecy is home for me, and it’s also where I learned to fly. Where I spent hours in the circuit, and fell in love with mountain flying. This card is a little tribute to those early flights and the airport I’ve flown out of more than any other.

Map Notes
London isn’t just one airport, it’s a whole web of them. Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted, City, Luton, Biggin Hill... they all make up the rhythm of the skies above the city. London Heathrow Airport is real Hub. Whether you’re taking off, touching down, or just watching the patterns from the ground, London’s airspace is always moving. This design brings that complexity into focus, with stylised flight routes and the LHR code, bold and unmistakable.

Personal Bond
London’s been home for over 15 years. It’s the city where I’ve built my life and career, and where aviation has always been part of the backdrop.
