Well, a 319 or a 320 sounds good to me. I’d like a 320-100 actually, just because they’re so rare, though I notice BA schedules show the flights as operated by a 319.

So, what do the A321s do? Do any of those do domestic routes?

Hi T5 – its weird; I’ve always loved flying and travelling and I still get a kick out of it despite the trips being more frequent and work related, than the previous occassional and holiday related. One thing that is starting to bug me though, is waiting around in airports. I haven’t achieved enough miles yet to gain auto access to the lounges, and hanging around for 4 hours with nothing to do gets a bit repetitive after a while; particularly if views are limited.

I like your comments on Malaysian. Don’t know a great deal about them but I’m sure I heard (maybe 10 years ago) that they received a warning (allegedly) for flying with minimal fuel, such that if they had an incident, and had to fly on to another airport, they’d be dangerously low on fuel. I don’t know if my memory is playing tricks on me but I’m sure MAS had to be given a few priority landings due to low fuel. Its a shame that my only knowledge of this airline is this one piece of bad publicity. Can anyone else remember?

In Houston now and can’t sleep…booo!

Anyway, WTP wasn’t bad at all. I couldn’t touch the seat in front of me; the recline on the seat was threefold (Back, lumber & leg) and the seats were wider too. Usual seat back TVs.

Flight was empty so managed to spread out a bit.

Enjoyed the experience but not sure if it was worth the extra money….

Easyjet have just put their Budapest flights on sale.

And oh dear; they’re £100 cheaper than I paid with KLM/Malev. Poor flight times though (for what we want) but I think I jumped in a bit on this one, much to my wallet’s detriment.

Chris – I’ve seen something mentioned on pprune too now, so this could be true.

I’ve decided to book through KLM & Malev anyway now – reasonable prices and a chance to get on a 737-600! 🙂
