Photo review. BRU-FAO-BRU on Virgin Express

Post by MSS658 »

Hello,
As to fill the large gap between my bigger trip reports, I decided to make some smaller reviews. Mainly flights between 2006 and 2008 covering on various airlines. These smaller reviews consist of pictures/video’s and a smaller review.


02 July 2006
Virgin Express TV 540
Brussels-Faro
09:45-09:50
11:45-11:55
Boeing 737-36N OO-VEH
Economy seat 5F
Est Flying time. 2hrs40mns

Arrived in BRU at 8AM. I was met by a huge line. Fortnualy this line was for SN Brussels Airlines. Being in the gate area, my flight left from one of the first gates. Boarding was on time for this fully booked flight to Faro, Once onboard I found the cabin showing it’s age. The flight itself was uneventful and landed in Faro on time. Onboard I chose the ham sandwich from the buy-on board menu. F/A’s where good on this segment. Bagage claim was smooth aswell.

11 July 2006
Virgin Express TV 541
Faro-Brussels
11:00-10:58
14:50-14:45
Boeing 737-36N OO-VEG
Economy seat 2D
Est Flying time. 2hrs20mns

Arrived at the airport at about 930AM, I checked in as half-UM, This was because two other members of my party where flying UM, Watched at the gate the inbound TV 540 arrive and disembark. Then we received priority boarding. The flight itself was uneventfull again. Good food, good F/A’s. Landed on time. However our bags were the very last of the belt. Clearing customs at 15:30. 45 minutes after my arrival into Brussels.

Overall verdict:
Flying Virgin Express was a pleasure, was a very value for it’s money. Only the seats where aged. Sorry to see them gone.
