Tupolev planes

are they really that bad, im off to Bansko March and have heard some not so good reviews about the planes with Balkan, flying from EM Airport.

re: Tupolev planes

HAHAHAHAAAAAA They are truly dire! Will you be sitting with the goats or the sheep? I think they hold them together with string and brown tape, they dont crash though (got to get off the ground first)

re: Tupolev planes

Got me and my lot there and back last year - pretty basic, but did the job.

Flying BA this time though...

IMT

re: Tupolev planes

I went on Balkan planes this xmas they are not that new but they are alright the pilots seemed good tho, didnt feel the landing on the return to manchester at all.

The food on the plane is absolute crap tho, its a piece of bread cheese ham and something that looks that pork i think.

the air stewardesses are quality tho, not that it would probably excite you!

re: Tupolev planes

i went on one of balkan holidays' tupolevs last year, it wasnt as good as some planes but it does the job, a bit loud maybe but otherwise fine

besides, balkan are getting some brand new airbus planes (british airways and others use these), i think they already have a few so if ur lucky u'll get one

re: Tupolev planes

if not hold on to your hat. haha

re: Tupolev planes

if not hold on to your hat sounds like your in for a hell of a ride. afew of these before you fly will help no end.

re: Tupolev planes

We flew this christmas from gatwick, got a nice airbus I think going out but a rather old one coming back, knees up to my chin, Food pretty lousy could use the roles as doorstops. But hey we got there and back in one piece and thats what matters and they were ahead of schedule going out and on time coming back..... Have a great time

re: Tupolev planes

Balkan doesn't use Tupolev planes from England for one year.
The food... no comment.
