I first flew DAT (Delta Air Transport) when I went to Prague with my boyfriend in late December. I originally booked with Sabena but was then told that Sabena had gone out of business, so as you can imagine we were a wee bit dubious when we booked on a DAT flight.

DAT is based in Brussels and their slogan is DAT - reconnecting Brussels and that is exactly what they do. (Read below for a list of destinations.)

The reason I chose to fly on DAT was because they were a lot cheaper than other airlines at that time of year, costing only £130. The flight stopped in Brussels and we were to connect to another DAT flight that would take us to Prague.
All went very well indeed. The planes had lovely wide leather seats with lots of leg room. We were given drinks, sandwiches and chocolates to eat and the service was extremely professional.
The flights always took off on time (even when there was quite a bit of snow on the ground). And they were never very busy. Once there was only about ten people on the flight. The planes were quite small but we felt very safe and in good hands.
There is nothing that I can say about DAT that is bad, they started running on the 2nd of December and there were no teething problems when we flew with them.
I would definately fly with DAT again and highly recommend them.
They have a website: www.dat-airlines.com and on there you can find out where they fly to and you can also book a flight. There is also quite a lot of background information on the airline.
*DAT destinations*: Barcelona Berlin Bilbao Birmingham Bologna Bordeaux Bristol Copenhagen Florence Geneva Gothenburg Hamburg Helsinki London Heathrow Lyon Madrid Manchester Marseille Milan Munich Newcastle Nice Oslo Prague Rome Stockholm Toulouse Turin Venice Vienna Warsaw
So as you can see there are 31 destinations in total (not including Brussels where most of the flights go through). You may have to stop over in Brussels but it is not unlike getting off a train and getting on another one!
All in all it was a very pleasant experience and I highly recommend them.
