balkan flight

Any body tell me if balkan airways have improved in the last 2-3 years. Flying from gatwick on 17th 19.50hrs.

From my experience the planes were basic, a little chilly in some places, slightly rickety on landing and take off but flew exactly on time. No big prolems.

I don't know if this is different from 2-3 years ago though

Last year didn't seem so creaky and rickety as the previous year!

Progress?????

We will be on the same flight so see you in the bar at Gatwick! I'll be the one in a ski jacket!!!!

Very rickety - no alchol served on board! Meal ham and lettuce (take a sandwich) ohh and either a snicker or Mars bar!! Also start worrying if you get transfered to Bourgas - No rep to meet you , wait for 3 hours for a coach then a 7.5 hour coach ride - on the coldest coach on earth - Don't mean to worry you or anything.
