Departing from Chania International Airport, the Airbus A320 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took approximately 8 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. As the aircraft lined up on runway 29, the crew initiated the departure roll, and the aircraft lifted off the ground at a speed of 162 knots, utilizing 7,044 feet of the 10,995-foot runway, which equated to 64% of its length.
As the aircraft climbed away from the island of Crete, it began its enroute climb, reaching an altitude of 34,008 feet above sea level in 22 minutes, covering a distance of 143 nautical miles. The climb phase was characterized by a significant increase in altitude, with the aircraft rising by 32,550 feet. Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 133 minutes and covered a distance of 987 nautical miles. The cruise phase was conducted at a steady altitude, allowing the crew to optimize fuel efficiency and minimize flight time. As the aircraft approached the German border, it began its enroute descent, reducing its altitude from 34,008 feet to 1,498 feet above sea level in 20 minutes, covering a distance of 112 nautical miles.
As the aircraft entered the final approach phase, it aligned itself with runway 23L at Düsseldorf Airport, a 8,838-foot runway. The crew initiated the final approach from the northeast, heading 233.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,357 feet above ground level, 4 nautical miles from the runway threshold. The aircraft touched down on the runway at a speed of 135 knots, slightly above the target speed, and with a touchdown rate of -165 feet per minute. The touchdown point was 811 feet beyond the touchdown zone, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 11 feet from the centerline. Following a smooth rollout, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took approximately 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,251 nautical miles, and the aircraft used 16,066 pounds of fuel during the journey, which lasted for 188 minutes.

The final approach to runway 23L at EDDL Düsseldorf Airport was initiated from the north east, heading 233.0° at 4 nm and 1,357 ft above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height allowing for a controlled descent. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 143 kt, indicating a slight deviation from the optimal landing speed.
As the aircraft touched down on the runway, the touchdown point was 811 ft beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed of 135 kt was a little fast. Nevertheless, the touchdown rate of -165 fpm was good, indicating a controlled deceleration. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 11 ft from the centreline, which may have been due to the slight crosswind of 4 kt and tailwind of 1 kt. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 75°F and wind at 4 kt at 330°, did not pose a significant challenge to the landing.
The total landing distance of 5,923 ft was 67% of the runway length, which is within the acceptable range. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, with the aircraft maintaining its centreline position throughout the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was considered satisfactory, with a score of 96.8% reflecting the minor deviations from the optimal landing parameters.
