I also tried sleeping on the rows of seats in the arrivals hall at Gatwick’s South Terminal once, but was unsuccessful.

Although I agree with you in principle… I must add that there is more to a cabin class than its leg room. Yes the room is an important part, but the service and quality of it is also a deciding factor.

Yeah, thats what I mean. Having flown them both transatlantic and domestic I think their coach class is fine, but other than MRTC I can’t see any other factors which would make it special.

Is there anywhere that states the reasons why each airline was awarded ?

Still, well done to them anyway.

AA gets ‘best coach class’, but was this decision made based on the ‘More Room Throughout Coach’ (MRTC) program? If so, it no longer applies because they have started to remove the MRTC program and add more seats.
There’s nothing wrong with their coach class, but I can’t see why else they would get that award.

Saw the landing, looked fantastic!! 😎

Danair Boy would be pleased!! 😀 😀

The ‘Virgin’ logo isn’t quite right though.

The one at Exeter has recently been seen disguised as a Viking MD-80

I have seen a Hola Airlines 733 at Exeter operating for flybe recently, but this is only for a short lease of about 3 months. I think Exeter will eventually have an Astreus 737.

If you look at the ‘b’ in ‘flybe’ on the 737, you can see that at the bottom it isn’t shaped properly! :rolleyes:

I’ve heard that although the aircraft are damp leased from Astreus, some of the pilots are actually flybe pilots but are being temporarily employed by Astreus to operate the aircraft.
