The Lot IL18 I recall on the AMS/LHR sector had
around 14 pax on board. It was as smoky inside
as it was outside, with a thick exhaust from the
Ivchenko engines. The guy sitting behind me was
American, and amazed that free drinks were being
offered. I flew in recent years with Eurolot on an
ATR (not my favourite a.c.) and found LOT very
acceptable, and cabin staff very polite and professional.
