| we flew with AA last year from Glasgow to Orlando via Chicago. The trip there was uneventful apart from the fact that none of the stewardesses were under sixty (they all acted like they were playing a part in the "Prime of Miss Jean Brodie") and they kept getting on to you if you didn't stay in your seat with your seatbelt on!
However we had a 4 hour delay at Chicago before we left and we were not kept informed about anything. By the time they ran the films on the flight it was quite late and they had no eyemasks or earplugs to give to the passengers. Then my 10 year old daughter started throwing up. When I called them all they were interested in was whether or not it was on the seat! I got scolded by one of them for putting a full sick bag in the wrong place, and was told that they had no water to give my daughter, another passenger helped us out here.
I would never fly with them again.

| we've booked with BA for next year from Gatwick. At least if you're delayed in Gatwick there is a bit more to do. In Chicago there is very little to do as all the departure areas are so far apart and each one has only 1 or 2 restaurants/shops.
Not that I'm intending to get stranded at Gatwick but you never know!

i got a paper carry bag at the gate once was it them? |

| Virgin from London is great, the staff seem so much friendlier, Manchester is not as good, the planes are on hire from Icelandic Air and are in need of a good overall. I have flown Upper Class from Gatwick and it was by far the best way to travel. I have just got the Virgin credit card 2 air miles for every £1.00 spent, spend £15,000 and you get a free companion flight. I have just cut up my old company card and look forward to more Free Upper Class trips.  |

| have just noticed that my name isnt on here! so thought i had better add my vote to!
i like Virgin, have used them twice the first time was rubbish but the second time was great no complaints, in fact i sent a letter to Richard Branson telling him how great the service was! i was quick enough to complain when things went bad so thought do the decent thing when its gone good!!!
am not worried about short haul flights, as its almost over before you get there!
Virgin rocks!!! (we'll look this one up again when we have had the next trip in 14 weeks!!!!) |
