Pros:The food was good.
Cons:Check-in was extremely slow. Some of the screens for the movies did not work. This was not good. The maintenance on the plane is bad. That’s quite a scary thought!
Flight was on time Seats ( business class) are terrible- you keep on slipping down as it doesn’t lie flat Food service is like economy class. Meals ( still wrapped in plastic) are just dropped in front of you
Pros:friendly crew
Cons:flight was delayed 2-hours, I pre-paid for a seat but was relocated to a different less convenient seat.
Cons:Lovely Airbus 340-600, with no USB or electrical ports at any seat, and the screen at my seat was inoperative.
Not sure it was a basic airline so nothing much to like but what was annoying was they delayed so much we missed our connecting flight and we had to almost fight to be out on the next flight and also even get food
Cons:The big four-engine Airbus has no electrical outlets or USB ports at each seat. Entertainment screen was intermittent.
Cons:Absolutely nothing could be improved. The staff were the friendliest I’ve come across and the food was great too.
Pros:Courteous crew
Cons:Entertainment console only partially working. Toilet vacant/occupied indicator not working fully.
First row in business class is terrible - no storage space with video screen folded down between seats. Entertainment system didn't show flight info...
Pros:A very comfortable flight (with a full plane and in economy). The crew was clear, gave good instructions and were available to help. Even though the flight started bumpy, they will still able to complete service on a short flight.
Cons:Despite my status with Star Alliance (Gold...the highest), I still was not allowed to take my roller carry on into the plane. There was plenty of space as they were allowing NO one in economy to take a roller carry on. Despite requesting it twice (I was at the end of a long, 3 day journey from the US to Harare) I was denied. This was unnecessary and spiteful to those of us who fly frequently.
