The flight began with an enroute climb from 2,019 feet above sea level (asl) to the same altitude, resulting in no net gain in altitude. This climb phase lasted for 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile (nm). The aircraft then transitioned into an enroute level cruise phase, which started over Veliko Turnovo in Bulgaria and lasted for 4 minutes, covering a distance of less than 1 nm.

The flight then entered another enroute climb phase, this time from 2,019 ft asl to 6,004 ft asl, resulting in an increase of 3,985 feet in altitude. This climb phase lasted for 9 minutes and covered a distance of 12 nm. Following this climb, the aircraft entered an enroute level cruise phase, which started 5 miles south east of Polski Trambesh in Bulgaria and lasted for 16 minutes, covering a distance of 34 nm.

As the flight progressed, the aircraft began its descent from 5,698 ft asl to 2,502 ft asl, resulting in a decrease of 3,196 feet in altitude. This descent phase lasted for 7 minutes and covered a distance of 16 nm. The aircraft then entered another enroute level cruise phase, which started 3 miles south east of Stoenesti in Romania and lasted for 20 minutes, covering a distance of 29 nm.
