Flown with them a few times, they're ok

Last year 4 hour delay from Barcelona, sat on plane for over an hour in the heat then back to terminal for over another 2 hours, very little communication no food vouchers offered. Eventually back on plane they offered free drink (non alcoholic)and snack mini packet of crisps.

I use kayak.co.uk for flights. It's never let me down!


The +/- 3 days feature (it's a bit hidden, but it's there!) is really useful as it shows if you can make savings by changing your flying days slightly. Friday is not usually the cheapest day to fly, so if you can be a bit flexible, you might save. If you use 'LON' as the airport code, it picks up all London airports.


The other think you want to check is legroom. It varies wildly and if you are going to be 8 hours on a flight, check you won't be too cramped, especially if it's an overnight flight. I'm 5'11" and legroom can be a real issue for me on longer flights.

Off thread but it used to amuse me when I used to fly Finnair (thinair)


And older readers may remember Danair (nothing to do with Denmark) who were christened 'Dan Dare' as it was always and adventure


Then there was the lovely sounding Debonair who were one of the first budget airlines (with Ryanair and Easyjet) - most have only heard of the latter two as they went bust fairly swiftly

My post was funny


Yours is just crass


And this is from someone who has been slsgged off as being boorish (I may be proud of this - as I was probably being too subtle for the readers of East Dulwich).


And I know it kinda lingers

I've flown Norweigan a few times on the JFK route. The Dreamliner fleet is lovely as are the cabin crew a - but it is still a budget airline. Bring your own blankets, pillows, and headphones unless you want to pay for them. It makes sense to get the baggage/seat reservation/meal package even if you don't eat the meals as its still cheaper than paying for the bags and seat separately. The meals are paltry, my kids don't like them, and hey tend to get served quite late into the flight so definitely bring food for your toddler.


If you come prepared the flight itself is quite comfortable and in my experience the crew are kid friendly. Norweigan are gf really the cheapest to JFK. The main drawback is they only do the night flights which we find is a nightmare for the kids' jet lag. After several bad experiences we now have a day flight only policy!

    • Hello Did anyone see an accident about 15 minutes ago at the junction of Goodrich and Friern Road. A black car driven by a lady ran in to the side of my car as I was coming up Friern Road- instead of pulling over she drove off without providing her insurance information. If anyone happened to see this or has her license plate details please pm me. Thanks 
    • Hi everyone,  I have a few slots for next few days, if anyone need  a tidy or one off, please feel free to call, text, or WhatsApp as well. Thanks very much Fernando Pinto 
    • On what basis do you object to the economy spend numbers in the report and describe it as "extremely unlikely"? Is that objection based on data or is it vibes-based? Where does this estimate of "50-100 vehicles" come from? The objectors:supporters ratio doesn't speak volumes. Planning applications of this sort always receive objections from various curtain twitches and NIMBYs. It doesn't mean those objections are well-founded or sensible. The planning officers and councillors need to consider the issue objectively, not just count the letters. It's not a public vote. Saying the building is "out of character" is meaningless out of context. It's an unusual building on an unusual infill site. It's not supposed to be a model for future development across Dulwich as a whole.  We are in the middle of a housing crisis. London desperately needs more housing units. This is an opportunity to get a whole bunch of them on a small, unloved industrial site on top of a transit hub. Not building it because people like the Dulwich Society complains it's "visible" is crazy.
    • Not if someone wheels over it with a pram or a heavy footed person steps on it and it hasn't been tied up or is tied but explodes everywhere. Yuk! Agree we definitely need dog poo bins back again, particularly near Peckham Rye park, along Crystal Palace Road, and by Goose Green.
