Most holiday airlines do that. Corsair's 747s are refered to by many as "slave ships" since they cram around 590 seats in them. It's just a way to maximize profits for them.

I honestly think you guys are just as bad as him, I haven't seen him post anything too stupid until provoked, like you guys just did.


just stay out of this UK pilot, cause that's when you really look like an idiot (no that's not an insult, it's a compliment...I haven't seen you post stupid stuff until you got into an arguement)

Exactly, just my point! And I get into an arguament all the time over nothing because of these people!

The 744 range is around 5,940 nm. They fly from Paris to SXM, Montreal, and some European routes. So, about 8 hours on some of the routes.

Here are all their routes for all aircraft.

Ryanair, just everything about them is horrible.

American Airlines
Ryanair.

UK_Pilot your signature is too large.

If it was too large, he wouldn't have been able to post it. The forum fairy would have gotten him.

There is no automated forum fairy system...the admins change the signatures themselves. Well at least they did for me a while ago

Was always automated in my experience.

USAirways. They have ALWAYS screwed up my bookings.

Jetstar, but not because they're that bad - From the limited amount of (mostly AU/NZ) Airlines I've flown on they're probably at the bottom, and considering it's a LCC it probably isn't 'that' surprising'.

I love their livery though. Just out of curiosity, did you fly them on international or domestic routes?

Domestic, actually, come to think of it the same route (YSSY-YBCG) (Sydney to Coolangatta/Gold coast), and I've flown it A LOT of times so It's not just based off one flight .

Adam Air! Indonesian airline, equipment on aircraft not repaired. A few pilots left the airline due to safety fears. A few other indonesian airlines are bad. In the garuda indonesia crash for example the brakes failed the day before!

Most people love our full cocktail bar and food menu, but if you're not into that, it won't cost you a penny. Why should your ticket cost include your neighbor's dinner? That also goes for blankets and pillows–which, by the way, you get to keep if you buy. Oh, and don't sneak food onboard unless you brought enough for the whole plane.

I think i wanna go buy food for the entire airplane and see what they say

I have no idea how those guys are still in service with their reputation.  A friend of mine who use to work for them said that he thinks that the mafia is probably involved with them because they've been loosing money for years and still keep flying.

*bows again*

Did you hear that Ryanair have come up with another way to save money?  In order to reduce the amount the pay to gate agents, passengers will no longer be checked in but will be issued with 1 donkey per family (spare donkeys are available at a price of £25) that they ride from the terminal to their plane.  Airstairs have been eliminated, instead the slowest passenger on each donkey will be required to insert 1 clump of fresh ginger (free if booked online, £100 if purchased at the terminal) into the rear end of the donkey.  While the donkey charges, passengers will be asked to grap hold of any part of the plane they can and hold on until they reach their point of arrival.

The company takes no responsibility for death incurred as a result of this new service.

Arabian, although I liked Emirates and Iran air alot..
