A couple of decent FR flights

Earlier this month had return flights on FR- BHX/GRO/BHX. Both flights pretty full (although rows 2-4 kept clear for takeoff and landing) and took off on time and arrived early.Good security briefing and two trolley services on each flight - little sold other than hot drinks.
The usual scratch cards,phone cards,perfume being sold and also good commentary from the flight deck.
Also,to a tootle on the PA system, the announcement of the introduction of smoke free cigarettes at €4 for 10. Didn't see anyone buying them
Decent companion PAX and well dressed and behaved unlike some leisure flights to the Med.

Only real complaint was the garbled mangled English announcements from the FAs.

By no way my favourite airline but you have to give it to them - when it works (which is most of the time) it is an efficient and cost effective way of flying from A to B.
And, including baggage,priority boarding and airport checkin the two of us paid what BA used to charge for one return from BHX to BCN.
Price of F&B is so high on board our only extra cost was a £3.49 Boots Special and a £3.99 mini bottle of red each, airside!
