Re: Any experience of EDI?

Thanks for the answers. Our flight is at 09:10 so we will be in the lounge early in the morning. A few reviews I've read say that GLA is better but last time we flew from GLA (albeit a few years ago) the place had gone downhill alot.

Any experience of EDI?

We have our first flights from EDI (Edinburgh) in September. Does anyone have any recent experience of the airport? Is there any decent viewing in the departures area? Is it worth booking lounge access? I read reviews about EDI on review sights but they are not written with enthusiasts in mind and j...

Re: Travelling BRU-HAJ-BRU on Brussels Airlines subcontractors: bmi regional & CityJet

Great report :mrgreen: I always liked flying on bmi - their inflight catering was dire at first but did improve over the years, and the legroom was always reasonable. I have never boarded the ERJ through a boarding bridge though, wherever I've been flying from. (Will the boarding bridges even go so ...

Re: Looking back to 2017: one year of flights

Four flights for me in 2017 - and a few "firsts". I had my first flights on KLM. My first flights via AMS. My first flight to Warsaw Chopin (though not my first visit to Poland). My first flights on a Boeing 737 with winglets (the 700 and the 800 variants). This year I have one definite &q...

Re: Nantes-Amsterdam-Brussels with Hop! for Air France and KLM

Sorry that the KLM flight was disappointing - we get our first flight in the KLM Embraer 190 next year. I hope for a good experience.

Thanks for all the replies :mrgreen: Nothing has been booked yet as I am considering options but Swiss are still high on my list.

Any experiences of flying on Swiss via ZRH?

Swiss is just one of the airlines I am considering for our holiday next year (others are LOT, KLM and Lufthansa). Does anyone have any experience of flying on a connecting flight via ZRH? I an reading some poor reviews of Swiss but I had always assumed they had a good reputation for service. I am co...

Re: WAW-AMS-NCL on KLM 11/09/17

Great reports! Glad you enjoyed Warsaw :ugeek: Warsaw is a beautiful, amazing, fascinating city. The only downside was the weather preventing us seeing so much (we had planned to visit a few of the parks but rain prevented us and we only experienced Saxon Gardens on the day before we came home). Ne...

Re: WAW-AMS-NCL on KLM 11/09/17

You will soon be able to register for an Avro farewell flight at the end of October. BRU-GVA-BRU (last commercial flight) or BRU-BRU (Avgeek flight). As well as SN withdrawing the Avro, KLM are also withdrawing the Fokker jet. That is another type I had hoped to fly in one day but I'm too late :-( ...

You photographed the Brussels Airlines Avro RJ100 OO-DWD. Since today this is the only Avro left in SN's fleet: a rarity! I was pleased to see SN's Avro, last time I saw an SN aircraft it was an Airbus in KRK. Such a shame that the Avro era is almost at an end, I remember our first Sabena flight wa...

Warsaw to Amsterdam KL1364 We loved Warsaw but the weather had not been kind - it only improved on the Friday before we flew home on the Monday. It was overcast at WAW.

Thanks for your comments Andre. I was very happy with KLM. I didn't even consider BA this year with all their strikes and this new thing with the meals. I didn't know anyone was charged for snacks on KLM (unless maybe they order something special) I just booked an ordinary economy ticket. I paid for...
