Nolinor Aviation

Advantages: Rewards fairly generous and not over-restrictive
Disadvantages: TWA has only one departure per day from UK

...Although I fly anywhere only occasionally today, for many years I flew very frequently. When Frequent Flyer programmes were introduced I signed up to several. TWA's FFB (re-named Aviators a few years ago) offering was most attractive, especially during "Fare Wars" when they sometimes awarded double and triple miles for economy bookings. These promos encouraged me to use TWA. The airline is best described as "plain vanilla", at least in economy. Staff are matter of fact rather than attentive, on transatlantic flights the attendants are mainly female and of mature years.

Directions:- The Aviation Park is located on the A538 between Junction 6 of the M56 motorway, I was coming from Chester so I took... Read review

Advantages: Unusual day out
Disadvantages: Limited availability

...Manchester Aviation Viewing Park Now before this review starts I would like to point out that I am not a plane spotter and no very little about planes although I do enjoy flying and living about 30minutes away from Manchester Airport and never having been to the viewing park I thought that it would be a nice afternoon out with the big advantage of Manchester having (at that that time) the only Concorde on display in the UK (if not the world!) What's there? There are two main parts to the Aviation Park, which are the Aviation Park, which is open every day (with the exception of Christmas etc.). The aviation park is split into three main areas. There is a large car park where you can basically park your car and explore on foot. There is a smaller car park at the front with many less spaces. Here you can park... Read review
