First time we flew with Balkan was 1991. They had red brocade curtains over all windows - a bit like the inside of a fortune tellers tent! In flight meal was one SERIOUSLY big tomato, a slice of (horse?) meat and a piece of something that was cross between bread and a dog biscuit! In flight entertainment was saying your prayers and avoiding water dripping from rusty bolts holding cabin together.

The first time I flew Balkan was 10 years ago from Belfast and I kid you not, it was like a floating bar. Nobody had seat belts on at take-off, Bucks Fizz was brought round to all the passengers BEFORE take off, anyone who smoked, lit up and then the stewardess brazenly walked down the isle with, I kid you not, a tray with two glasses and a bottle of Smirnoff on it straight down to the cockpit!
