ETIHAD AIRWAYS

[farman 11]

i love the blue airport there bout 6 years old now but you have to sit/wait on the tiles

Waiting on the tiles,

 

Done that a few times in the past mate!

 

Some one once said to me that the blue airport was like being inside a giant do-nut!!

Exellent, thanks Flighty.

 

Any other bms got any comments on Etihad?

I just flew them Biz Class LOS-Manchester.

I was rather disappointed.....

The cabin service was atrocious.... interminable waits for food and drinks and rather poor food.

They did not appear to have any galley at the front of the 777 and they had this silly idea of wheeling out this collapsable table thing and setting it up infront of the exit and making up the plates of food/ drinks there.

I found the seat rather narrow and cramped.

The transfer in Abu Dhabi was bad, had to queue for ages at a cramped gate area to board and there was no separate boarding.

They were understaffed on board, both flights, possibly this was due to it being Ramadan....

Mind you, having a free Limo at Manchester was nice....

If you are talking about the old part of the airport, it was the same 1988 when I went through there.

Oman are great, can't fault them.

 

One thing i will say is this, if you are a bit scared of flying then don't look out of the window when coming in to land at muscat, muscat is right on the coast and in a rocky area so while the plane is banking and you're coming into land it looks as if things may get a bit hairy. I loved it!!!

 

As for a TR, i'm sure i could manage that.

 

btw, fuukin 28 hours return leg
