I was worried about flight delays with a charter flight, but both ways they were absolutely on time.

The food was acceptable as was the service, although you do pay for everything. Their announcement after 3 hours of flight to drink plenty of water to avoid thrombosis was a laugh as they hadn't provided any water.

They do show a film, but take your own headsets unless you want to pay £2.50. Most walkman type headsets seem to work.

The down side was that I had pre-booked the emergency exit seats and paid an extra £30 for the privilege. When the tickets arrived this was not mentioned so I got my travel agents to check this. The airline told them that it was shown on their computer.

So of course we get to the airport and they have no record of it. And now we have the nuisance of trying to recover the cost.

But on the whole better than I had feared.
