Two become 1?

Sadly there is No 1time airlines anymore, but  kalula.com is still flying - a fab airline I have flown kalula.com about 5 or 6 times before.  Great crew!

Runway ? Restaurant Zurich

This is a pic from a matchbook box, from this Restaurant in Switzerland, that my sister, Helen, took us to in 2006.


Kenya Airways Boeing 777


Qatar Airways was rated Number 1 Airline by passengers in a Sky Trax 2012 survey


LOT Polish Airlines

I have never flown LOT before and I might never but I like this photo of this Boeing 737 connected to the air bridge.  I like the 737 as an aircraft type  (appearance wise) but the Airbus A320  is much more pleasant, from my viewpoint as a passenger on both aircraft types.  Airbus A320's are more spacious than Boeing 737s,

Avia Airlines

This airline, Avia Airlines (South Africa's first real competition to SAA, on its long haul flights, who started and ended operations in 1995) flew a Boeing 747SP leased from SAA on flights from JNB (Johannesburg) to LGW(London Gatwick Airport) but it was only operational for a few months.  Never lease Aircraft from your competition?

Delicious?

An airline I have flown with many times in the past always put ??? Delicious meal stickers on their food,

have they ever tasted their food? On my last two flights with them the food was quite tasty 

though.




Heston Blumenthal 


did a  Series on why aircraft food tastes disgusting.  It is the dryness at altitude which changes the food's flavour.  I know that it is all flash frozen if it is a hot meal item too.
so try what you want airline food will always be what it is?  No matter your class of travel.
