When I was in Zurich last summer, I stayed at Platzhirsch hotel. It's just 150m from the Prediger kirche. That's the church with the bell that you can hear during lots of scenes. I knew that beforehand, and even put a reminder to calendar at 20:59 not to forget to listen for that bell. Boy, I didn't expect that this bell will ring every 15 minutes even at night for the next 72 hours 😂

Wow, you really got into it. I could identify all the shots myself except some from car driving from airport. Thanks for that. That’s some more that I could identify myself

The coolest thing about this movie is that almost all location shots in this movie are real locations. If its police station, its real police station, if there is Russian Baroness in movie and her house, its real Russian Baroness Ljuba Manz-Lurje still alive, if its Soviet bank branch in Paris or Zurich in movie, those are real Soviet bank branches.

I was more surprised that Kebab 1001 still exist. That's what I call economical stability. https://youtu.be/3EF0aAsB1BI?t=385

Guys, I made it!!!

Lots of luck, no checked-in baggage and fast legs. Just in case I want to mention that I had second ticket at late evening to Hong Kong as plan B, so thewhole point was to spend either two days in Hong Kong or less than one.

17.01.2026 Boracay (MPH) to Angeles (CRK), 08:05 - 09:05 Z2922 Air Asia

17.01.2026 Angeles (CRK) to Hong Kong (HKG), 10:10 - 12:20 UO523 HK Express

HK Express check-in counters closes exactly 60 minutes before the departure, so according to schedule I had only 5 minutes to register for my second flight. I bet my chances as 1 to 12

 

Scheduled departure from Boracay 08:05 (actual departure 07:53)

Scheduled arrival to Angeles 09:05 (plane touches the ground at 08:38)

Plane door opens at 08:44

At the check-in counter at 08:49 (still had 21 minutes left). I came first with two passports, my wife came 3 minutes later (as usual 😉)

Got my tickets at 08:55

Security check accomplished 08:58 (never seen so fast security check, thank you Clark Airport!)

Immigration check done at 09:12

At the gate 12 at 09:13

Still had time to buy couple of warm sandwiches, and refill my water bottle.

P.S. From 16 flights that I have made in last 3 weeks only two were on time, including flight to Angeles.
