HI IANJ

I flew to Trinidad POS via St Lucia last year on thier "brand new" A340. Expect the absolute basic service and you won`t be disappointed. Expect everhing to work and you`ll be extremely dissappointed.
Didn`t get off to the best start, two hours late out of Heathrow due a slot they said . Balix they where loading cargo untill twenty mins before departure and wouldn`t do anything about air conditioning so some pax forced cabin crew to open the doors.
En route service was ok but food wasn`t and the nearest TV screen was about 20ft away which didnt matter because because both our seats were bust and couldn`t get sound anyway (on the way back one worked). The pull down table on one of the seats was bust so we had an intimate lunch using mine.
We paid F all for the seats so couldn`t really complain it took off flew straight n level for quite a while n landed Ok but I`ll never be on one again!
Good luck TR
