I recently flew to Paphos in Cyprus with HeliosAirlines. I have never travelled on such an old aircraft. The first sign that things weren't what they should was when we were told, after a four hour delay, that the plane was late coming because it had to stop to refuel. (This was only from Cyprus, it hadn't flown long haul from Australia or anything like that.) Apparently there were strong head winds.
As we boarded I noticed that the galley was nothing more than a not very brightly lit cupboard. It didn't look too clean either. We found our seats and had to brush sweet papers off them before sitting down. The whole cabin was in a kind of half light. The staff were pleasant and friendly, though.
The plane was so old that the seats were rock hard and didn't recline at all. There was no insulation in the cabin. I sat near the window and I was right up against the cold metal of the fusilage.
We were served a very late supper which was virtually inedible. It consisted of some very oily Greek salad and fatty lamb, a piece of some kind of cake that was too hard to eat and a stale roll. The coffee was luke warm but there was plenty of it. We were served with complimentary liquers after our meal.
It was very cold in the cabin but there were no blankets available. I did manage to get a pillow. There was plenty of room as it was less than half full and we could stretch out. It was so cold that I couldn't sleep though. There was no inflight entertainment.
The next thing that happened was unvbelievable. We were approaching Paphos airport and the cabin crew asked those people sitting at the front to move to the back of the aircraft. They said this was quite normal procedure and it was to redistribute the weight.
