Big Sky Airlines

Advantages: Leg space, service
Disadvantages: Cost

...Airlines? The leg space! Being on the big side myself I always have problems fitting my feet and knees between the seats. And economy class syndrome is a big issue these days. You will have a lot of leg space even in the economy class of Austrian Airlines. Do not fear all those blood clots! Then comes the service. Very friendly, polite and smiley. Food is average, no big points here then. And the timing of arrival and departure to and from Vienna is as tight as possible. No time wasters! The downside. Yes, there is a downside. It is more expensive than taking flight to Kiev and then paying for the overnight train. I my case I paid £60 more. Anyway, it is up to you to decide whether saving your day costs £60 or not. And another thing – on my way back my luggage was left in Vienna for some reason. The airline’s staff was quick... Read review

Advantages: The flight was a pleasant and comfortable fight.
Disadvantages: NONE

...Gulf air nappy! Then the time came for the food, they first gave us a menu, which I had never experienced in economy class! There were 3 options, Chicken curry, Lamb curry Or Vegetarian meal.

Advantages: Competitve changable fares, Modern fleet, Great crew
Disadvantages: No Eticketing yet, luck of entertainment on medium hall flights in Economy

...for that and they have cheap fares available they would offer it to you. On my opinion, this is big advantage against other airlines (BA for example) where if you buy your ticket on the day or 1-2 days before, you always end paying huge sums of money. ONCE ONBOARD For their medium hall flights (London - Moscow, Zurich - Moscow, Paris - Moscow etc) Aeroflot uses modern fleet of A320 Very well designed, clean cabins with comphortable sitting in economy and one of the best business class product in medium hall market. Interesting to know, that Aeroflot still allows extra time after each flight for it's planes to be properly cleaned contrary to many major airlines. In Economy you always offered choice of hot meal ( meat or fish for example) and soft drinks. Special meals are bookable in advance and since February 2006 alchogolic drinks are paid... Read review
