Advantages: price at times Disadvantages: flying with them and hoping it won't be cancelled
...staff is at times frienly but once dealing with a problem they become surly although this is also a regular thing with Spanish companies as Spain is not known for service.I live in Madrid and experience this everyday and vueling is not outstanding in its rudeness and lack of care. ...

Review of Vueling Airlines
Advantages: Cheap flights from Glasgow to Gran Canaria Disadvantages: Delays not uncommon - so i'm told
i have flew with flyglobespan for the last 3 years from Glasgow to Gran Canaria. The first couple of years were without incident but this year the flight was delayed by 5 hours approx there and back!!!! Which was not amusing when it takes 3 hours to get the airport from our home location. Why book with flyglobespan you ask then? Well the answer is because it is a Scottish airline and flights are leaving from Glasgow - for some reason the majority ... ...holiday in the Uk. As you may be aware bank holidays in the uk are not the same in Scotland. Therefore, the flights are always between £50 and £100 cheaper per person. If there is a family of four flying to Gran Canaria or wherever then £400 is a lot of savings. Basic flight - you can chose if you want to upgrade to seats with more leg room, or meals etc. But if you're looking for a bargan flight - don't discount flyglobespan. its worth a look . ...

Review of Flyglobespan
Advantages: A way to get rid of money for nothing in return Disadvantages: cash for nothing
We paid for the premium upgrade to Kenya and it was a disgrace. The flight was late leaving Manchester and the crew who were leaving the flight in Paris virtually threw our breakfast at us. The plane was dirty, we had no extra leg room, there was no priority check in or boarding. the welcome on board drink was a plastic tub of orange juice. The choice of wines was red or white! we were visited throughout the flight by people from economy who managed ... ...seat in premium. The staff were rude. The food was average. I went to economy and the leg room was great. Their food was the same but in plastic tubs, so what! Never again! I did however manage to get a full refund from the tour operator Thomas Cook, not via their complaints department which was useless but by emailing their Chief Executive. ...

Review of Monarch Airlines
Advantages: Well looked after, provided with enough food and drink, fantastic experience Disadvantages: Economy isn't really spacious but it was enough just!!!
...in Dubai for 2 nights, again we were well looked after on the flight. It really was a fantastic experience for a long flight and using Emirates for the first time was a great experience and I would recommend them to anyone and would not hesitate booking with them again. ...
Advantages: Cheap tickets, lots of destinations Disadvantages: Secondary airports, 'point to point'
...Santiago de Compostela, travelling with Ryanair from London Stansted.
To be quite honest, I believe that we live in one of the most beautiful countries, with lots of things to do and Britain does not have the reputation of being especially expensive when compared to the rest of the world. However, there are times when we feel we need to broaden our horizons, and that is when we decide, assuming that we can afford it, to travel abroad.
This is where ... ...it does to fly with Ryanair from London to Spain.
SO WHY IS RYANAIR SO CHEAP?
None of its planes appear to have suffered a history of defects or problems, and most of there aeroplanes appear to be fairly new and modern.
So how can they offer such cheap fares? Ryanair is predominantly an internet company. By this I mean that they sell their tickets through the internet www.ryanair.com. By doing this, the company saves literally millions ...
