Flight weather conditions 5 detained for hours while the air with the pilot made up for a certain period of time, and although in the end I was late for the appointed time, but it still was very pleased.

I do not like the fact that the air conditioning is too much. As a result, coming from completely frozen the aircraft, I immediately caught a cold. A lot of effort and funds spent on treatment. It's a shame that I have repeatedly asked him to turn off, or at least to make weaker, but my requests were ignored.

One of the most decent airlines, especially for the money that they ask for tickets. In comparison with other companies of the business class it is here to save. The staff are so schooled that to them for the entire flight was not a single complaint!

Departure delayed for an hour. Staff polite, girls are constantly cruising the cabin with soft drinks. I, frankly, have the impression that I was lying on the couch at home! Everything is done with maximum convenience. The only food is rubber, but that's not the point. You great big plus! Well done.

Not a bad company, I used it four times. Sensation is ambiguous. With one strong school - Suid Afrikaanse Lugdiens (once considered one of the best airlines in the world), but the service is average, stewardesses are ill-bred. As for the convenience of joining, maintaining the schedule, etc. - no problem. Meals average, sometimes better, sometimes worse. First flew with South African Airways in 1996 year. At that time it was still SAL / SAA. Then there was good service, friendly smiles, professionalism. Now - how lucky. But anyway, the company can not be called bad. She just became worse than she was. He decided to switch to Emirates, which is more qualitative in my opinion.
