East Midlands flight

Going to Pamp with Balkan Holidays 15th Feb ex East Midlands. Anyone know which carrier they use and have any tips having used the flight before?

re: East Midlands flight

Hi, do you not think you might be a bit early, Balkan flight BGH 5806 leaves on Saturday 16th at 14.25. F.V.

re: East Midlands flight

i'm really early- it's 15th march we go! assume it's the same balkan flight- what are they like?

re: East Midlands flight

Yes, same code and timimg. Have only used in Summer, have had 17 trips with Balkan, 2 with Bulgaria Air and 1 with B.B. Balkan come out tops. F.V.

re: East Midlands flight

Flew with Balkan from East Mids 2 years ago, we flew on an old Russian Tupalov which I believe are no longer in service. No problems at all with the flight, the meal was a bit strange (cold meat (I think it was meat) and cheese)but the bar service was excellent, a 500 ml beer was about £1.50, me and my brother in law thought they'd got the price wrong but the 2nd and 3rd bottles cost the same

All in all a friendly service with no hiccups.

re: East Midlands flight

Flew with Balkan from East Mids a few times, no worries other then indefinable meat snack on board, Balkan flight but delayed a couple of times though.

Here's a hint, if you get to the airport and you're delayed you can pay £18.50 for 3 hours in the executive lounge. Nice and comfy, open free bar and snacks

Nice way to start the your hols.
