Have heard some rather ordinary feedback on the airline of CHOICE.
Apparently the SYD-HKT ( Phuket) flight last week was a "nightmare".
Anyone ( QF- L/H ) who has previously operated the A-330-200 to PER would understand exactly what happened.
SYD-PER flight time is 4.40 hrs TOD.
SYD-HKT flight time is 8.50 hr TOD.
For those who have done the Math.....this is double the flight time.
At the end of PER flights, there was no room in the bins,toilets stunk,galleys congested,pax all over the place and no where to go!!!
The Jet * HKT flight had all the hallmarks of the above plus more. As most pax in the Y/C cabin brought on a mountain of food-naturally where do you dispose of all the rubbish. And yes -it was freezing-$15.00 per blanket.Only 1 problem.......not enough blankets.
Sure, its only very early days. And yes they will probably get their act together over time.....due to their hard working energetic crews. Lets hope their 787 is more suited to an International operation.
But.....be warned, SQ have made it known that there SQ and Silk Air ( ex SIN) operation will match Jet * any day PLUS you get a meal, movie and blankey for nix !!!
