Taken 6 September 2006 from Manchester, England (Ringway International Airport) - MAN to Duesseldorf (Dusseldorf) (Rhein-Ruhr) - DUS

Both flights were on time, and the return departed 20 minutes early due to everyone being on board on time - certainly an advantage of the Embraer 145.

The aircraft, while small, is comfortable and well looked after.

The buy-on-board service needs a bit of streamlining, however. It took most of the flight to serve the entire cabin, on both journeys. This on a 49 seat aircraft. The main issue seemed to be taking credit card payments, which is how most people on the flights paid. The English Breakfast, which cost £5, was very tasty, and came with a hot drink, though I still felt it was a little expensive.

Overall, though, I was satisfied with the service received for the price I paid (£70 return).
