...before your flight departs. You are able to choose your own seat. I just turn up to the airport 45 minutes before my plane takes off. No messing around in long queues anymore!! Lufthansa is definitely my number one choice for an airline (to germany anyway!) ... Read review

Advantages: one of the best programmes around
Disadvantages: :-)) you do have to fly or spend money

...( in UK for example Lufthansa Miles and More credit card issed by MBNA with 6000 bonus miles on offer when you join) Their website is very informative and offers every service posible online. The flight awards start from 15000 miles (smart ticket) and you can book online on a short notice (48 hours) They offer award flights not only on Lufthansa but across whole of Star Alliance network of airlines, so in most cases there is always a good choice ...
...Miles and More balance to fly business class from London to Moscow on Swiss airines. I booked 2 days in advance and all I needed was 25000 mile + 80 GB pounds in taxes and fees. All though I used my miles I still had opportunity to use full business class services including access to lounges which is not the case with all the loyality programmes. Overall, I would reccomend it to anybody. It does not cost you a thing and eventually you will end ... Read review

Advantages: Very good prices, good service, growing destination catalogue, very good airmiles programme
Disadvantages: Still not too many destinations possible

I started flying with Air Berlin about two years ago, until then i'd never heard of them but they offered a cheap flight to where i had to go so i thought i'd give them a go. I've heard alot of horror stories about so called budget airlins and wasn't really expecting alot but to be honest, i was very pleasantly surprised. The flight ran smoothly, the staff were friendly and the food was ok, especially as it was free. I have since then flown many ...
...now flown several times with Air Berlin and haven't had any problems, i can only recommed it and if they fly to where you want to go, i'd advise you to take a look, you can do alot worse. It is also worth noting that Air Berlin has become the second largest airline in Germany and continues to grow, with this growth comes more flight destinations. To answer the questions on the comments board,, boarding is very good, you will be assigned a seat ... Read review

Advantages: VERY cheap, comfortable, great service, expanding route.
Disadvantages: Check-in and boarding can be less than fun.

I have completed five separate return trips with 'Hapag-Lloyd Express' (HLX) over the last 18 months, as both a business and leisure traveller, and I have to say that my opinions of the airline continue to gain some altitude! All of my journeys have been from Manchester, including the early-evening route to Cologne and three to Stuttgart, which depart at a similar time. There are in fact three flights with the airline that leave Manchester's terminal ...
...route to Hannover, the company's headquarters. HLX took to the skies in 2002 and is slowly beginning to expand its network around Europe, including flights to the Med with the airlines bigger sisters, 'ThomsonFly' (formerly Britannia Airlines) and the German equivalent 'HapagFly'. This summer HLX have been flying 18 aircraft to 36 destinations, and here is my first tip for fellow Brits...if you have the time, check the price of flights to Germany ... Read review

Advantages: cheap, nice aircraft
Disadvantages: take off times

This was the first time I had used a 'budget' airline flying from Birmingham Airport to Cologne - the only direct flight available - previously we had to fly into Dusseldorf by BA and get a taxi (£60). The flight was cheap (£13.00 per person - each way) and the plane was brand new. It left on time and arrived on time both ways so no complaints there. Food and Drink was extra but quite reasonably priced - coffee £2.00 a cup. The flights were about ...
...Plenty of leg space and no extra charges for luggage. What do you expect for £13.00? Only two small gripes - the take off times, 7.40am from Birmingham (at airport 6.40am) and 6.40am (UK time - 5.40am) back from Cologne together with a feeling that it was a case of 'all pile on' whilst boarding. But then again, What do you expect for £13.00! ... Read review
