Oh Mexicana! Good flight from NY to Buenos Aires
Review of Mexicana Airlines by
LeolucaEscobar
Advantages: cheap flights, good service, open bar
Disadvantages: no entertainment console
...FISH", is non existent here. Mexicana really surprised me. It was the first flight this year that I really enjoyed. You feel like you are really getting a service on top of your flight and the staff take care into making you comfortable. I closed my eyes, drank some vino tinto and before I knew it- I was in Buenos Aires. Relaxed and rested.

Best way for getting to the Canary Islands
Review of Iberia - IBE by
cass30
Advantages: Fly from Heathrow, cheap fares
Disadvantages: no food or drink included
...could. I found flights with Iberia from London Heathrow via Madrid which for 2 adults and 1 child was £350 cheaper than companies such as Thomson and thomascook. Done deal.
So what was the experience like?
Check-in
We were unable to check in online prior to departure. I work in the travel industry and called Iberia to find out what the problem was. I was informed that it might be because we were not flying direct, however he would check and call ... ...My son was given an Iberia plane jelly lolly, some colouring pencils and a colouring competition. This was nice but all in Spanish and noone explained what to do! Iberia are one of the only scheduled airlines that dont include food / drinks on board their flights. A sandwich plus drink was €10. Had I known this in advance I would have taken my own. I did however get some water free! The staff were pleasant. All announcements done in spanish followed ...

Safety issues with TAP flight 348 on 03/10/08
Review of TAP Air Portugal by
cbulled
Advantages: None for the reasons outlined
Disadvantages: Dangerous attitude to aircraft safety
I flew with TAP airlines yesterday (03/10/08) on Flight TP348 from Madeira to Gatwick. I have two issues really, the first being the most important:- During the course of the flight it became readily apparent that a young portugese male had decided to ignore all flight crew instructions and smoked in one of the onboard toilets. Despite a female member of cabin crew obviously discussing it with him as he returned to his seat, aboslutely NO ACTION ... ...when coming in to land, as I watched a very elderly lady walk to the bathroom despite the seat belt signs being on, and no-one either assisted her or asked her to return to her seat. I do not feel that TAP is a safe airline for these reasons. ...

SIA - Crap service
Review of Singapore Airlines - SIA by
Broomer
Advantages: They spoke Mandarin
Disadvantages: Too many to say
I'm surprise that I'm not the only one. In the past, I had relatively high regard for SIA, however that's mainly due to my wife more then personal experience.
Personal experience has been that their staff tends to ignore any request that I made, I over looked those on bequest of my wife but this time they've really crossed the line.
The problem: we're had our flights cancelled by them three times. Each time they've failed to notify me. Each time, ... ...all they could tell me was "operational reasons". What this translates to is: petrol cost too much, too bad. We just had to cop it.
The dumbest thing was that when they rebooked our flight, they've place us on a flight that we could never catch as we'll be on a flight from Tai pei to Singapore. A flight that they've changed earlier, TWCE.
Each time I've raised a complaint and each time I get no response. I had to chase them up. Granted the call ...

Good value for money
Review of Qatar Airways - QTR by
sbenbow
Advantages: Friendly and efficient staff
Disadvantages: Flights get booked up quickly
...a variety of airlines. Qatar Airways is generally one of the cheapest, but also one of the more decent airlines. The following links take you direct to the Qatar Airways deals pages.
www.benbow.org.uk/qatarairwaysuk.htm - For Flight Deals From The UK www.benbow.org.uk/qatarairwaysdubai.htm - For Flight Deals From Dubai
I'm not surprised that the flights book up quickly (due to low cost of the flights and the good service), and I would always use ... ...involves a stop at Doha airport. It's a nice airport - some reasonable duty free shops, restaurant, etc. The stopover to Dubai isn't normally more than a couple of hours.
The actual flight is good. The economy class seats are just like economy seats on other scehdule airlines. The food and service is good though - I think its much better than Virgin Atlantic anyway! The cabin staff have always been approachable and friendly whenever I have flown. ...
