Balkan Airlines

Went to Pamps from East Midlands on 5th Feb aboard a Balkan Holiday plane. Absolutely no problems - ok, they are a little less modern than a brand new airbus, but there was plenty of leg room and the landing in Plovdiv was the smoothest one we have had for ages! We thought that the landing back at EMA was not as good until we got off the plane and were nearly knocked sideways by gale force winds - more praise for the crew (who were all female!) - don't worry so much - I really don't think ...

The food is not fab, but we took our own - staff were very friendly and the flight was fine.
Look at Concorde - the best flight that money could buy and if you were on that plane your number was up - just because the planes are old doesn't mean that they are unsafe - Enjoy your holidays!!!!!

re: Balkan Airlines

these old planes are better because you don't have a computer flying you in the air...no auto pilot meen the takeoff, fly and land the plane rather than the auto pilot doing most the work... i don't feel to safe though when i see him looking drunk with the fluffy dice hanging in the window at the front...lol
