In a word "No",

Did two round trips to/from Tashkent with them (because they are/were one of the few operators in/out TAS, never mind losing my suitcase for the entire duration of one 8 day stay (because they wouldn't pay to forward it to me on another carrier) and then tried to bullsh1t their way out of paying me their rate of USD50 per day for lost luggage but ... in-flight they hand out complimentary newspapers and this one flight the cabin floor became littered with discarded newspapers.

When the trolley dollies came around doing their commission based duty free sales the discarded newspapers impeded their trolley wheels, rather than collect and dispose of the newspapers in a recognised fashion they merely swept them to the side of the aisle and couldn't care less that their actions had obscured the emergency floor lighting.

I recommended to our CAA Flight Ops Inspector of the time that THY might be worthy of a ramp inspection or few whilst on turnrounds in UK.
