New York City 2025 - Part 9

Flying Home
 
Saturday - May 10th 2025
 
Today we had to fly back home, but since our flight didn't depart before the evening, we still had plenty of time to see New York City from the bird's eye view. So after breakfast at Cafe Aroma with our last bagels we were on our way to Hudson Yards. There we bought our tickets for The Edge, an outdoor observation deck. Today the weather was great and so we had a fantastic view over Manhattan and New Jersey. Later it got pretty crowded and so we decided to leave and get lunch at Whole Foods Market. Then we headed back to the hotel and picked up our luggage. We checked out already in the morning and so we just grabbed an Uber and drove to the airport.

Newark Airport in New Jersey had some serious problems with air traffic control and so were a little bit nervous about our flight back home being on time, but until now everything was fine. Once we dropped off our luggage and passed security and border control we were surprised how bad the international terminal was. There were hardly any shops and just a couple of restaurants. So we got a couple of beers while waiting for departure. Finally it was time for boarding and luckily our Austrian Airlines flight left Newark Airport on time. About eight hours later we landed in Vienna. After we picked up our luggage, we grabbed a small breakfast before hitting the road. Now our wonderful vacation to New York City came to an end and we can't wait for our next holiday.
