BMI longhaul

[captainmacuk]

Hi there,

Anyone travelled on BMI's new services across the pond,(I say new but i dont know when it started),
Its just Im going to chicago at Christmas from Manchester with them and was wanting to know if they are good,

Whats the aircraft?
Are flight deck visits allowed?

And another thing

Im 18 years old, (legal for drinking here) but am i allowed to drink( a few beers) on the flight(UK airline),

See ya

They are A330s . . . Lovely new blue ones at that, always hanging around Manchester.

Don't know about the other stuff, never flown them.

Lovely new A330's, barely out of the bubble-wrap.

Spacious inside, chefs on board for those in MoreMoneyThanSense Class.

Travelled twice on them; no complaints whatsoever.

Fantastic loads too... AA's performance graph looks like a ski slope since BMI joined them on the ORD route.

Nice to see a home grown product doing so well.

:cool:

I agree - Flew MAN-ORD-MAN in June and was lucky to sample the sharp-end product which was outstanding.

Flight deck visits are allowed if you ask nicely and when I was on board the alcohol was free flowing!
