Air Mandalay plane ready to takeoff from Chiang Mai airport in Thailand

 

Tickets to Yangon, capital of Myanmar, are in my pocket.
I am in an airplane the size of a pocket.

ATR 72, if I'm not mistaken. That's not your usual jumbo jet of Thai Airways
Rather the first thing to remind me of my motherland, where the native Lithuanian airlines still has a few of those.

Things are changing fast

I also do hope that the traffic of air passengers is increasing, and the prices are accordingly dropping..
